My very first impression is: oat meal 😂 Not gonna lie, it smells just like a bowl of oat meal (with milk) when I'm mixing it with the Sioris Cleanse Me Softly Milk Cleanser. But, mixing both create a beautiful paste to apply on skin (dry skin). I usually leave it for 1-2 minutes then a little massaging before I wash it off. The whole experience is enjoying and I do feel it cleanses really well. If you're not puting heavy make-up on, you can just go with this without an oil cleanser. I'm using once a week since it's a scrub.
