- Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 3 January 2025Colour Name: OrangeSize Name: 150 ml (Pack of 1)Verified PurchaseIf you have oily skin, this does a great job of keeping the oil at bay throughout the day! (Although if you use too much it can dry out your skin a little)
The face wash delivers only mild exfoliation, the exfoliating particles are sparse compared to other products marketed for exfoliation, but it still has the desired effect.
My skin is noticeably clearer after using this for a few weeks, it is an all-round good option, especially for the price.
