With using the cleanser, I instantly noticed a change to my face where it was not as dry and not as oily!

Enjoyable

Submitted 3 days ago

By Alex

From North Hollywood, CA

I liked the cleanser! It made my face feel clean and had a nice smell. I think it soaked in a little bit when I would put it on, so I had to really rub it on my face. I don’t really know if I’ve seen results, but I wasn’t as consistent as I should have been.

Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend to a friend

Smells like potato but keeps my skin clear

Submitted 3 days ago

By Maureen

From CA

This is a very lightweight gel serum. It has a strong potato scent, so I only used it at night. My acne lesions went away after using for about 1 month. My skin type is dehydrated, oily-combo and I think it didn't strip my skin. It really works on helping reduce the number of whiteheads I had on my forehead. However, I wished it didn't have such a strong wet potato smell.

Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend to a friend

Effective, but slightly tackey

From Palo Alto,CA

Feels good, but rapidly becomes slightly tacky on my skin. This isn't much of a problem when other products are layered on top, but I found the feeling to be slightly unpleasant.

Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend to a friend
