Incredible
Best face wash I've ever used, and it being super natural is such a plus. I use this in addition to the boiron homeopathic calendula cream as a moisturizer and it's the only thing that's ever worked for my skin and acne; my true holy grail.

Best product ever
This is a fantastic product and I should know because I have been using it for many years. I do not just use it on my face, but use it as a body wash on the shower, as well as hand soap in a pump. My skin is always clear and I used to have acne and this completely cleared it years ago for good. I have oily skin even in my old age, so I highly recommend it to people with oily skin. The tea tree oil in the product kills bacteria, so it's good and gentle for all the body cleansing needs. And

Thoroughly Clean Face Wash
One of the only cleansers to not break me out or dry out my skin too much, even if I use it when I wake up, after the gym, and before bed. Has for sure become a staple for my sensitive skin, I genuinely do not know where I would be without this product.

Love Original Face Wash
I've used the Original face wash for many years and love it! It's not just for the face. I even add a squirt to the washcloth with my favorite body wash and don't break out anywhere.
