When I'm using this product, I have no expectations since my previous cleanser already do well. But due to pandemic I got some maskne which irritating, switching my cleanser to this one was a life saver. It stopped my breakout and helps my serum works better. Also I feel my pore were tighter and less blackhead. I even use it twice a day because it suit well with my skin. It may too strong for some people, but maybe if you're experiencing maskne it would be a great help!
