Gentle and beautifully scented
Really loving this product so far. It's got a great, natural smell - it's a bit medicinal (think herbs), but I'm fond of that smell. Although the smell doesn't last long at all, it makes for a good experience. The bottle and pump is well made, as well. The pump doesn't dispense too much or too little for each use. I would say it has a medium lather, and 2/3 of a single pump covers my face quite well. Use a full pump if you really like your suds. It's gentle on your face and definitely does not dry you out like some other ones do.<br /><br />I am a 20 something with some freckles but no aging spots. I do, however, have very sensitive skin, so I thought to try this out. I was offered a chance to try this in exchange for my review, so I decided to take the dive. My skin has been more sensitive lately due to the summer sun, and this has been a nice switch up to my foaming cleanser. I work up a nice enough lather and rub my face VERY GENTLY (think fingertips), and message for 30-60 seconds. Been using this for almost a month and haven't noticed much change to my freckles, but this is a nice cleanser and looks damn fine on my bathroom counter heh. Definitely a nice gift to someone who wants to try going over to the all natural side. It feels luxurious and clean on my skin every time I wash my face.<br /><br />Also, this has no water in the ingredients, but instead has aloe. That's usually a good indicator of a good, luxurious product that doesn't waste ingredients on water. Your skin takes in other liquids a bit more easily, and it feels nice know that you're not getting a diluted formula, or that it doesn't need to be diluted to be gentle enough for your skin.<br /><br />As stated above in my review, I received this product in exchange for my honest review. Would I buy it again? No, not for myself. I feel my skincare needs and concerns are changing (acne due to aging?! :'( ). But I would for my mom. :)
