Reviews

Just the right cleansing

"Doesn't sting, not harsh and my skin feels so clean and refreshed."

— Hadley S. (5/5)

Fungal Acne Safe!!

"One of the ONLY fungal acne safe exfolianting cleansers with both AHA and BHA. Does a great job of gently exfoliating over time if used consistently. I also use it as a wash off mask every once in a while. The tea tree gives a pleasant minty scent and slight cooling sensation. I have dry acne prone skin, so it doesn’t leave my skin hydrated after rinsing but as long as I apply moisturizer i am fine. I still recommend to dry skin folks, probably even more efficient for oily skin people. I finished my bottle and will be purchasing a refill, I also enjoy the refillable packaging and sustainability. Also the brand being dermatology and cosmetic chemist backed is great. Overall 9/10."

Refreshing and effective

"I use this cleanser most nights now that it is summer, in addition to an oil cleanser to remove make-up residue, and I do think it helps my skin cycle through periods of break-outs faster! I like the texture and that it doesn't feel like I'm rubbing sand on my face - it is a gentle exfoliator for sure."
