I wanted to like this because I like mint but I really did not. It's almost oily, kind of sticky, and I had acne breakouts while I was using it. Definitely pass this one up unless you like oily, super...Read more

I'm surprised the rate of buying again is so low! I think it's a very good facewash for oily skin. My skin is really clean after wash and it lasts quite a long time. I don't have any irritation for my...Read more

I was in a mall and got a facial with the entire oily skin line, and wow I love it. My skin not only feels clean, but not so dried out, the scent is amazing and I have very oily skin, although I'm 43...Read more

Yuck. Made my skin feel icky from the second I put it on. Words fail me to describe how uncomfortable my skin felt while using this. Same deal when I tried it again a few months later.

What a disaster this thing is! I seem never be able to wash it off once I rub it on my face! it feels soapy. And it doesn't help with my acne-prone skin type at all!

This product is okay functionally... it cleans my slightly-oily skin well without drying at all... but it smells like new car! I don't think I'd purchase again, because the smell is just too overwhelm...Read more

This cleanser is a must have for those with truly oily skin. I found the scent to be pleasant. Just a couple of pumps of this cleanser produces a rich lather. It really cleanses the face without dr...Read more

i really really wanted to like this, because when i see "cooling" or "soothing" in a product, im all over it. but this gave me an itchy, bumpy, acne-like rash! =( so disappointed.
