I use it daily as a cleanser. I apply a small amount about the size of a pea onto my palm, warm it up in my palm and apply it to the areas I want to cleanse. I wash it off with warm water afterwards. the skin after the procedure is toned and tightened. There were no allergic reactions, although I have problem skin. texture like an oil mask. Soothes the skin. The smell is pleasant: chamomile, lavender and essential oils. I really liked this tool.
