Not your regular face wash

The texture of this cream feels a little oily but it rubbed in smoothly. It helped treat the smaller ance but wasn't as effective on the larger ones.
Gentle & Effective
[I received this product in exchange for my honest review] Really like this cleanser! It's more of a clay paste than a foaming wash (no bubbles) but it helps with breakouts without drying out my skin. My face feels clean after using it and I love that it can also be used as a nice clay mask. Like most products it takes some time for the results to kick in. It has a bit of a scent but its barely noticeable and it did not cause any irritation however always patch test!
Pretty good for acne prone skin
[I received this product in exchange for my honest review] Seems to work well? Not sure how much it's helping with acne because I don't have that much and don't use it everyday. But whenever I do use it, the smell is definitely noticeable. Not bad(?), but charcoal scent is strong. The actual paste feels pretty smooth, easy to apply at least. I like that it's in a tube, it feels cleaner than face masks that come in a jar.

Must buy
[I received this product in exchange for my honest review] Good value for money and is very effective. My acne has been a lot better. Great texture and the scent isnt too strong. The packaging is pretty and easily usable.
