Review on 🍊 Alpha Skin Care Refreshing Face Wash: Anti-Aging Formula with Citric Alpha Hydroxy Acid (AHA) - Gently Cleanses, Purifies, Tones & Restores Ideal PH - For All Skin Types (6 Fl Oz) by Marina Smith

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Product changed, less effective on acne prone skin

I actually ordered the original product in the red packaging (Alpha Hydrox Foaming Facewash) and they sent me this one instead. I could tell right away that he smelled different, which wasn't a good sign. I used it for a couple of weeks hoping it would work the same way. While I didn't notice any horrible breakouts on my sensitive combination skin, I was definitely getting more breakouts and my oil levels were less controllable than years of using older products. I didn't save the boxes, but a quick search allowed me to point out the differences between the ingredients. I hope Alpha brings back the old foam cleanser that reliably cleans and controls sebum without drying or irritating it. This one is too gentle and intended for all skin types, while the other was recommended for oily skin; this is not the right substitute.

Pros
  • Done
Cons
  • Waiting too long
