Revainrating 5 out of 5

It clogs drains, stains bathtubs, and causes acne.

I'm really fed up with this purchase. The name in my cart and on my order was facial cleanser but the tube says body cleanser. I came back here and saw that the image was for a body cleanser, but people mostly used it for the face (unless the same URL was used for two different products, which sometimes happens). So I tried it on my face. It is very heavy and greasy, it is difficult to wash off. Also, I developed cystic acne after just one use. I'm in my 40's and have acne, but very rarely severe acne (and then only at certain times of the month when I haven't been taking good care of my skin). None of the aggravating factors that sometimes lead to severe acne were present, and I even used a clarifying toner cleanser. Disgust. I'm not sure if I got the product most people were talking about or a different one. But the title should not contain the word "detergent". And remember that if you even get pimples from time to time, you should avoid this product. So, while it doesn't lather (I usually use natural products and I'm used to low lathers, but that's zero), I've made several attempts to use this as a body wash, at least on parts of my body (I can't wear a non-lather product on mine back up). It generally requires a **huge** amount of product to apply. It also appears to have been improperly saponified. Halfway between emptying the bathtub I have to clean the drain or the water won't drain due to wax grease residue. Despite rinsing the tub thoroughly with a heavy-duty hose, the wax residue was bad enough to clog the drain on subsequent baths where I didn't even use the product and my feet slipped out from under me. Honestly, this product couldn't be more unfortunate in terms of its usefulness as a body wash. It's dangerous, doesn't spread or clean up well, and is bad for drains.

Pros
  • Quality workmanship
Cons
  • No paint required
