    The only thing not to like about this product (probably just something up with my bottle) is that the bottle leaks a lot for some reason... I've had a lot of bad experiences with face washes....

    Great product for oily congested skin types. Terrific value... A little goes a long way and love the fact that it's natural. Can be a little drying on the skin but nothing that can't be corrected...

    The first time I tried this product, I loved it. I have somewhat oily skin, that is extremely acne prone, so this product ended up drying my face quite a bit. I would then put Desert Essence's...

    I picked this up at Trader Joe's--the price was great, and it seemed like an all-natural face wash. But when I tried it, it felt harsh and tight on my face. I guess I should have read the...

    This is the best bang for your buck. The gigantic bottle (refill size) is ~$10 or less for 32 fl oz. I expect this to last us about over 6 months. Can be found online or in health stores. ...
