I love this product!!!
I use this product in the shower. I wash my face first with dove soap to remove my makeup and then follow with this cleanser. I don't have to use a lot, just a small squeeze. I use my fingertips and gently rub it all over my face, and over the affected areas. At first I though it wouldn't work becau...

Unless you're highly oily, it will make you bone dry
Yet another Mario B. product that has disappointed me. I wanted to like this, because it has minimal ingredients and no fragrance that can irritate skin. But I am not extremely oily, so using this all over my face outside of my slightly oily T-zone was a big mistake. It did clear up some bad blemish...

Very gentle on aging , very oily skin
I was very happy to find some product that didn't cause more problems. I use the cleanser, toner, moisturizer, drying lotion and drying patches.
Only Face Wash that Works for Me
I guess my skin really likes this one! I use the Peach Slices Snail Toner after washing my face with this and it does the trick! I get horrible hormonal acne and this face wash really keeps it at bay.
Actually Works for Me
It sucks seeing that this has an overall 4.2 rating because this is the only product that my skin seems to like and I've tried so many highly-rated products! I struggle with frequent hormonal acne that just doesn't quit and this stuff really keeps it at bay and smoothes my skin. Also not super expensive!
Purchase for my son for YEARS….
I've purchased this particular Acne cleanser for my teanage son for years and I'm still buying it even though he's now grown. He still uses it too. If you ask him, my son will tell you that this cleanser, along with a Clarisonic brush, has kept his skin acne-free for the majority of his teenage years. He could see the difference whenever he stopped using it. And considering the price, it is absolutely worth it! No one knows your routine at home. Do/use whatever works for you. This stuff really works.
Amazing!

This product helped me minimize my pours from a procedure. I felt a cooling effect at first and then it didn't feel heavy at all when applying. Been using it three times a week and the difference has been night and day. Anything from Mario Badescu has been amazing!
