Photosensitive
Unfortunately, I didn't see much improvement in breakouts or texture and caused my skin to become super photosensitive. Glad I bought the travel size to try it out first.

Absolutely worth it!
Bought the smallest version of this as I had heard good things but didn’t want to invest... well it looks like I’ll be dropping some money soon because this is genuinely one of those products that actually work! Doesn’t sting the face like other products like this do, feels nice on the skin and a little goes a long way. I’m still using the small bottle and have been every night since I bought it a month or so ago, and I’ve seen a difference in the appearance of my pores - something which no other product has ever achieved for me! LOVE!

Amazing
Helped clear my skin up a lot but don’t use too much starting off as it’s quite strong, but it is very good would highly recommend it.

Worth it
My skin texture changed after three uses. My advice is not to use it every day, just once or twice a week. Great product worth every penny

My skin loves it!
After used it for the first time, the 'redness' from breakouts across my forehead 'almost' completely gone, overnight. My skin feels much smoother and fluffier. Still have to see the result after 4 weeks though, but after all I'm satisfied with this purchase.

Meh
I only tried the product twice and both times it made me come up with red spots all over my face. I think it was just too strong for my skin.

Saved my skin!
This product has transformed my skin! Over the past year, I’ve formed acne on my cheeks and nothing would help to calm it. I have only been using this product for about 3 weeks but already I am noticing a HUGE difference. It has reduced my acne and improved my skin texture massively by cleaning deep into my pores and removing congestion. I started using it daily but moved to every other day now as it can leave my skin quite dry, but I’d rather that than sore acne! Highly recommend!

Overhyped
I have oily skin, and lots of blackheads giving me a headache. It goes is sticky, it leaves my face greasy and it takes at least 30 minutes to absorb before I can apply something else. It also burns on initial application, even though my skin is not sensitive and takes well to exfoliation with most other products. It has smoothened the texture of my skin, but it has done nothing to (visibly) improve my pores, reduce blackheads and minimise their inflammation. It is a decent product, but I feel it doesn't perform quite well at what is advertised to do and definitely not worth the hype surrounding it!

Good but not worth the hype
This is overall a good cleansing product that is surprisingly gentle. However, it has not revolutionised my skin. It has not got rid of my blackheads which was my main reason for purchasing but it has significantly smoothed my skin and reduced my breakouts when I first started using it which is nice. A big drawback to be aware of is that it breaks down dead skin cells but leaves the flakes on your skin (rather than wiping them away) which kind of negates the purpose of the product, so you may find yourself exfoliating more than usual just to get rid of the flakes! This is especially annoying because if I go more than one day without using the exfoliant, the build-up of flaky skin becomes unbearable. I'm not too sure why this happens.

Worth the hype
I bought this product after seeing it be recommended so many times on tiktok, YouTube etc. and I have to say it is worth the hype. Really helps to even out texture and clear up spots quickly. I wouldn't recommend using it twice a day like it says on the bottle, once every few days is plenty and means the product will last longer.
