Skincode Essentials S.O.S Oil Control Clarifying Wash 125ml

I have been using this product for 4years now never tried anything else and never regret it!

This cleanser is relatively gentle and is good for those who struggle with oily skin or combo skin. I have combo skin and this seemed to work well for my skin without over-drying it. I'd be inclined to give it 5 stars, but I am a bit offended by the ad copy for this. The product info claims "Dermatologically tested. Free from: parabens, fragrance, preservatives and colorants." First, of course it has a preservative; most products should have some type of preservative unless it can be used up quickly. It has a very gentle preservative, ethylhexylglycerin, but that's still a preservative. It also has a small amount of alcohol, which I suspect is used for it's preservative abilities more than as a solvent. This is also not what I would classify as fragrance free. According to a leading chemical manufacturer that labs order from, Pentadecalactone "can be used as a flavoring agent and fragrance ingredient due to its musk flavor/odor." It's also listed as a perfuming agent in two reputable cosmetic ingredient sources I use regularly. Indeed, this product has a scent, albeit mild and not lingering, that others remark on as well.

Key ingredients: -CM-Glucan -Salicylic acid -Pore refining active Free of: -Fragrance -Parabens This oil control face wash is very creamy but it lathers up really well(don’t need much). It doesn’t have a fragrance added and seems fairly gentle for sensitive skin. I’ve only been using this product for a couple of days(day and night) and I am already noticing that my blemishes are starting minimize and heal. The texture of my skin is also improving. I think with a couple more days my skin will look more clear and smooth. I’m loving the results so far.

MY ⭐️RATINGS: 4⭐️- I would recommend it as the one to get. This is a decent cleanser for the summer months. My skin tends to be oiler during the summer, so having a cleanser that helps control my skin’s sebum is necessary. It doesn’t strip away my natural oil, leaving my skin dry. It helps keep my skin properly hydrated while deep cleaning. Skincode is a good brand of facial products. I also use Essentials AlpineWhite Brightening Total Clarity Serum . EXPIRATION DATE: UPON OPENING! I always check for an expiration date before using, ESPECIALLY with health & beauty products. This product does not have one, which means the expiration is between 12-18 months UPON OPENING. This Cleanser is as advertised, and works well. The PRICE is in the usual range.

This facewash has been nothing short of a miracle worker for me. I was randomly breaking out around my T-zone, which I never really do. I've been chalking it up to a change in weather or stress. Whatever the reason, this facewash was the answer to a prayer. It cleared my breakouts up completely within 2 days. For me, it works best as a maintenaince wash and I only use it in the areas where I see breakouts, which is usually in the T-zone. With that said, it doesn't dry the rest of my face out if I decide to wash all over. I love this product!
