This is one of those products that I keep re-purchasing because I know it works and I know it's good. I must have been around 18 when I started getting into skincare and this was the first face wash I bought. At the time I had a really bad experience with Freederm Gel and left my skin really dry and flakey. Since then I have tried other face wash's but none of them work as well as this does.
I would describe my skin as combination to dry more than combination to oily but I do get oily around my nose. I have never had a big problem with spots but do have blackheads, slight redness and dryness to the skin and this definitely helps.
I use this in the morning and in the evening. I also like using it in the shower as the steam and heat opens the pores and you can really feel it working. It feels cooling and tingly in a minty way and it doesn't leave your skin feeling dry or tight afterwards, it feels quite refreshed.
The Packaging
The face wash comes in a 150ml tube and is sold at £3.49. On the front it says
Clean & Clear
deep action cream wash
oil-free
cleans down to the pores for really clear skin
The back of the packaging reads;
Clean & Clear
deep action cream wash
Clean & Clear Deep Action Cream Wash cleans deep down to effectively remove dirt, oil and impurities without clogging pores, and contains a special ingredient to help prevent spots and breakouts. The tingling sensation tells you your skin has been thoroughly cleaned, leaving it cool, refreshed and really clear.
DIRECTIONS: Smooth the cream wash over wet face, especially massaging into area where excess oil builds up. Rinse thoroughly with water. Use daily as part of your Clean & Clear routine for skin that's really clean, clear and under control.
CAUTION: For external use only. Avoid contact with eyes. If contact occurs, immediately flush with water. Discontinue use if skin irritation develops. Keep out of reach of children.

I love the fact that this product is PARABEN FREE because I feel as thought a lot of drugstore skincare contains this.
I will continue to use this face wash but still continue to find another one so I am able to alternate between the two.
