    Great product! My feel feels truly clean when I use it; after the first week, it cleared up my blackheads and clogged pores. Even better, it seems to prevent these blemishes, too. I haven't had any...

    I bought the small, travel-size bottle to try first and liked it... so I purchased the enormous refill for about $10 at Whole Foods. My hubby even started to use it and liked it.. but he started to...

    Not a bad cleanser for acne-prone skin, especially for the price. Philosophy's Purity is still my HG, but it's expensive and I was trying to cut back so I picked this up at Trader Joe's. I don't...

    I have been using this for about 6 months and I have decided that while it initially makes your skin FEEL clean, it does not do a great job of actually cleaning it. It makes my skin really tight...
