It gently dissolves and remove my dead skin cells and impurities without living my skin to dry. It is completely non irritating and I'm only using this for twice or thrice a week. The only thing is they added alcohol but I didnt know what type is this so I can not totally conclude whether its bad or good for the skin. It has a lavender oil (well for me I am a fan of this scent) good thing that Im not a sensitive skin. For about a weeks of using this, my skin becomes smooth and radiant. This product also helps me to fade my blemishes and impurities.
