    Wow does this cleanser clean deep down.. so clean that it actually dries out your skin. I do not recommend this cleanser for people with dry or sensitive skin. This will probably just irritate and...

    This is something my dermatologist suggested years ago, and still to this day I use it all the time. It's great with the Salicylic acid to clear up skin and not dry it too much. If it's too...

    This product dried out my face, which is already very oily, and caused my already blemish prone skin to break out even more.

    Best face wash ever. :) Cheaply and effectively cleans my skin but does not dry it out. I also love the no-frills packaging.
