    This is my HG wash. I am on retin-a, so I cannot use most of the face washes formulated for problem skin (because their ingredients interfere with the medication). The gentle alternatives like...

    This cleans thoroughly, maybe TOO thoroughly. Admittedly, it is good for pimples, but I feel like this should maybe be a once in a while type cleanser for me. It gives me slight redness after...

    I have been using this wash for about three weeks now, as I've decided to make the switch to 100% natural/organic skincare products. So far, I am liking it a lot. It's drying, but I found that...

    This does what is says, thoroughly cleans your face. My skin is combination, it's very oily, but also flaky. It clears out all of the oil, but does not make my skin dry or flaky. In fact, when I...

    This is soap. It compares to Dr Bronners. It should not be marketed as a facial wash, it's not gentle enough. I found that it stripped my skin excessively and left my pores clogged. The tea tree...

    I'll have to be careful with this cleanser, as it seems too strong for me when the weather is cooler and drier. I mean, I wash with this and my face is utterly stripped of oil and feeling a bit...

    You can get a liter of this stuff for around $12US--I find it's a great castile soap-based cleanser, not too heavy on the tea tree scent, perfect for grimy post-workout skin, oily, acne-prone skin....
