Best Facial Cleanser Ever!
Ever switching to this cleanser 3 years ago, my skin has never been in better shape. I was breaking out really bad in my early 30's and literally bought hundreds of dollars worth of cleansers, acne medication, dermatologist appointments. Then I went on Mario's website and I filled out a questionnair...

Morning Cleanser
Good for use in the morning in the shower. As others have mentioned, it's messy to use, as there is no pump, just the bottle opening. Often more came out than I wanted to use. After using about half of the bottle, it did develop an almost fishy odor. I wasn't a big fan of the original scent when I f...

Refreshing spa smell
I dont understand why some people dont like the smell of this. I personally find it extremly relaxing and like a spa. I dont like the idea of a face wash being heavily fragranted and smelling like vanilla? Thats not what this is. Its a very clean fresh scent. Very revitalizing kind of smell.
I love the smell
I absolutely love the smell of this! Im not quite sure how to describe it but its like a deep clean smell.
Makes my skin glow
I love this cleanser for my second cleanse…so i use a cerave cleanser to get makeup, dirt, oil etc. Off, then i use a silicone brush with this seaweed cleanser and it works amazingly. I think this cleanser truly shines when you use it on cleansed skin and use it as a sort of mask/treatment.
Disappointed, does not cleanse AT ALL.
If you're looking for a cleanser that does its job well, this is not it. I was very hopeful to try out a Mario Badescu product, but after trying this cleanser, I won't purchase anything else. This specifically says it cleanses deep and removes any makeup. This is sadly not true at all. I thought it was just bad at removing my foundation, and I was semi okay with that. But then we had a huge storm roll through and I spent a make up free Saturday outside cleaning the yard. Thought for sure there would be no residue when after using this cleanser since I hadn't put on a single drop of make up. I cleansed three times with this cleanser (got used to doing this to go through it quick instead of throwing away and in hopes it would help cleanse my make up off better, it doesn't) in the shower then dried and applied my toner as usual. And I was DISGUSTED seeing all the dirt coming off of my face onto my cotton pad while applying my toner. That was a huge eye opener. Ran straight to my nearest Ulta to find a better replacement that would actually clean my face. I was baffled at the ineffectiveness of this product, to say the least.
Strong sent, leaves debris behind
I really wanted to like it…scent was way too much and the bits of what i presume to be seaweed gets stuck on your skin. Bottle is terrible.
