    I must be the only one who hates this. I don't feel my skin has been exfoliated after this product because I can sttill see / feel my pores being clogged. What I do feel is my skin being dry after...

    I have oily skin but I'm on tretinoin/Retin-A so my skin easily gets kind of flaky and peely. This is a great product for scrubbing away excess dead skin. The texture is very finely milled,...

    I have oily skin with large pores and am on tretinoin for acne/anti-aging. I also live in coastal New England, so my skin is super dehydrated and flakey during the winter - it’s not pleasant! I was...

    I used this stuff for years, and although I never reviewed it before, I would have rated it 5 stars. It was the finest, most gentle, but effective physical exfoliant I've every used. Easy to...

    I use this product twice a day. Once in the morning and in the evening. Because I wear makeup everyday it is important that my pores are free and clear especially since I have oily skin. I began...

    Do not scrub your eyebrows with this product! Upon my second wash I decided to use it on my entire face including eyebrows. The second I “gently” scrubbed my eyebrow it took half of it off!!!!!!! I...

    I have been using this physical exfoliant once daily on my combination, sensitive skin. It might be too much in winter and I probably should cut back to every other day. But I have very dry skin...

    Not a fan! Ok for daily use if you have dry/normal skin but for oily I prefer more grains/nuts exfoliating. I do like the pore extractor mask though.

    Purchased when ULTA had a great sale on this wash. This is not a wash for sensitive skin. This is a tad gritty. I only used it once a week, twice tops. I find the formula also to be a little...

    Things I don't like about this product: 1) it's impossible to get anything out of the bottle. I pour it in a different bottle and use that instead. This in itself is unforgivable considering I...

    This product has recently been reformulated and IMHO wrecked. I've used it for years and years as my regular daily cleanser (obviously, my skin is the opposite of sensitive). Now it is a pain to...

    This product is so runny I don't even wet my face first! It is a sham. Smells like chemicals also.
