This is an interesting cleanser that comes in a white powder that looks exactly like baking soda. To use it you press the button in front for the cap to open and then dispense into your hand. You only need a little bit and then you add some water, rub your hands together, and it will lather. For anyone who likes physical exfoliation that is gentle, this might be a good one for you because the powder is quite fine and just feels like a little bit of sandiness when you rub it on your face.
