“Although I don’t praise it as high as the moisturizer, this product is a pretty good facial cleanser. Mostly made of oils, I was actually surprised that it foamed. The biggest problem for me would be the scrub beads, as I had to very carefully keep them away from my eye areas. I would use this to replace my regular facial cleanser/soap; I still needed to use cleansing milk/oil before as this product did not thoroughly remove my make up. It did, however, leave my face soft and moisturized after cleansing.”

“No words could explain how much I love this product! I was at first skeptical, thinking that this would be another face oil, and the smell was a bit too strong for me. But I was surprised that my face was glowing after use and my skin became less oily as the day went compared to using other moisturizers. I stopped using for a while merely due to the strong fragrance. But I couldn’t find any other moisturizer that worked as well as this one, so I continued using. Surprisingly, now I find the scent pleasant and it adds some excitement every time I apply this on. Now on the last drops of my sample bottle after having been using it for almost 4 months, day and night. Love love love!”
