This is my face wash for the winter. I have acne prone skin and this product cleans without drying. It does not cleanse well enough for summer, so I only use it during winter months.

I don't think that there is enough tea tree oil or other disinfectant to provide help with blemishes, but it is a nice cleanser and certainly does no harm.

If you find that this product is not cleansing enough, try Kiss My Face, shower gel (peaceful patchouli). This is my summer facial cleanser - even though it is a shower gel it is the best I have found and cleans really well w/o drying.

The only thing I like about this product is the scent, and most people don’t like the scent of tea tree oil. It did absolutely nothing for my skin whatsoever. I will NOT be buying this again.

*edit*
im stuck using this as i seem to react badly to most cleansers still searching for HG for my cystic and hormonal acne.please give recommendations as im very desperate

the product is simple and efficient. along with the mattifying moisturiser the acne did get in control for a few weeks and i had a nice glow.although now its pretty much useless and doesnt control the oil/blemishes. it also gets used up easily.its good buy, ok product but wont be buying again.

This was just ok. It didnt make me break out/dry my skin out any more than usual, but then it didnt really help clear up blemishes either. I loved the container, the light scent and the way it lathered up, but i dont think i would buy it again

ok i changed my mind! after trying out a few other cleansers that irritated my skin i fell back on this one, it cleans your skin nicely and gently, nice everyday cleanser, i'm planning on repurchasing asap

I really wanted to like this product, but I hated it! Something in it broke me out really badly and dried and irritated my skin. It also has a medicine like smell to it.

I really wanted to like this product. My t-zone is oily and breaks out, but my cheeks (and sometimes chin) are dry. I used this on my face and it made it feel dry and unpleasantly tight, but possibly made my skin product more oil as I looked shiny and slick all day.
This product does lather nicely and it didn't cause any breakouts, but I did not like it for my face. After a few days I started to use this on my back and it worked well that way, but I would not repurchase for just that use.
I like flip top caps on my facial cleansers, but this one would not balance upside down for when the product was low, so I rated it lower because of that. It is not the best traveler either because it has a fat body.

I've been using this cleanser for a month now, once or twice a day. I love the refreshing feeling, and as I'm lathering it, I notice the skin specifically on my cheeks gets much softer with the lather and the fresh minty feeling lingers while I moisturize. I don't mind the smell of tea tree oil, and have just found this to work great for when I need it to wash of make up or cleanse before applying a mask or exfoliator. I haven't had any severe (out of the ordinary) breakouts as a result of it, and no negative effects linked to it. It's now a part of a new regime that thus far has led to no breakouts!
Love it!

I really love all of the Tea Tree line products, but hadn't tried this one. OHHH, bad, bad, bad!!! The first time I used it I broke out around my chin and cheeks (where I NEVER break out). I laid off it and just gave it a whirl again last night. While it does a good job of taking off all my makeup, I found that this morning I had REALLY broken out all over my cheeks AGAIN. I don't have sensitive skin and I very rarely break out from products. This is going back ASAP. What a disappointment...

This facial wash was bad, bad news.
I started off liking it since it was refreshing and all. But, then I started noticing that it did a terrible job at removing all of my eye makeup and I would have to wash my eyes out over and over to remove everything, but there was still makeup left! Over time, it started drying out my skin and I had embarassing red scaly patches around my mouth. On top of this, my skin became oily as hell to help counteract being dried out.
Personally, I quite like the scent of tea tree oil, although I'm sure many people don't. The product was also very cheap. I got 3 huge bottles for something like $20 (CAD). Those were the only good points. Otherwise, stay away!

I remember the first few days I used this product, I was surprised how well it worked on getting rid of stubborn blackheads on my nose. Fell in love with it, but I developed a sensitivity to one of the detergent ingredients (cocamidopropyl betaine), and broke out horriblly all over my face. So much for finding an HG.
