My favorite face wash. It gently cleans the face. I have an oily skin, so it doesn't leave my skin dry. However, I make sure to put a good moistu
...rizer after using it. The size of the bottle is big and lasts for more than a month. The ingredients are suitable for acne skin.

I used it at night for cleaning my skin before applying my serum and moisturiser. It's a decent quality product but might be too harsh for sensit
...ive skin because of its exfoliating effects. It didn't make my skin too dry but one might need to follow up with a moisturiser after using this cleanser. It's good for acne prone skin, helped dry up the pimples.

t’s very good and beneficial. I really like using it. The scent is neutral. Good quality. The size is good. The packaging is perfect. Doesn’t dry.
I have been using this for about 5 years now. It is the best product i have ever used. However, it worked miracles paired with the astringent which ha
...s sadly been discontinued. In my mid 30s and this is the only range that works. So pretty gutted. Hope this stays!

Alba Botanica has a great product range of skin care at a really good price. Their scrub is used in the morning to exfoliate skin. This pore wash is m
...y night routine which cleans well, is not abrasive, and rally gently, while still leaving your skin refreshed and clean. Can't understate how important that is as it's hard to find a product that does all that in one!

I’ve used this cleanser for years. Very effective at exfoliating my skin and keeping my oily skin under control. My teens use it too. Nice crisp cle

Morgan Knight
The best deep cleansing face wash I ever had, I use it daily in the shower and it really cleans your skin after a day of sweat, dirt and sun cream. Ma
...ke sure to moisturize your face afterwards to avoid over dehydrating it. Slight scent of mint and freshness. Use gently and apply a small amount. Package is a little annoying. Overall a great product, I highly recommend.

Casey Daniels
I noticed a difference in my skin after only two washes! I get really congested skin, big pores, uneven skin tone and texture, and this does a fantast
...ic job of deep cleaning without drying you completely out. I have fairly sensitive skin and worried this might be too harsh but its gel to foam wash is really gentle. Ive been using it twice a day without any irritation. You only need a little of the product as it goes a long way. The smell is subtle and fresh. Ill definitely be buying this again.

I purchased this Acne wash, not expecting the results that I have gotten. This wash is AMAZING. On the first day of use, I had a pimple that was in th
...e beginning stage of formation. I used this wash and to my surprise, the pimple went away. It has been 1 month since use, and to date, I have not had any break outs. I have oily skin and I am prone to acne. I was so impressed that I purchased the face lotion. An entire month has gone and not one break out. When using, please avoid your eye when applying since it has salicylic acid. This will now be my primary face wash. I am completely impressed. If I could give this 10 stars I would.

I had been struggling with acne after travel, but this has helped my skin so so much! I use it together with the face and body scrub, and it has lesse
...ned my acne and closed comedones. It does have a slightly acidic smell, but it's nothing too strong. I use it daily, and it leaves my skin clean but still moisturized. I feel like it's also brightened my skin substantially. Great quality and size for the price!

It's alright, but I really dont like the packaging. The bottle is hard to squeeze, which makes my fingers hurt. I really wish they would add a pu
...mp or something that would make it easier for the liquid to come out. Other than that I personally didn't see much of a different when it comes to my acne but I also don't use it everyday so maybe that's why?... I use it once or twice a week, I do find it a bit drying for my skin. I feel like the size of the bottle is kind of small. it doesn't last much long for me.

The quality is impressive—it’s effective at cleaning deep into pores without being too harsh. The composition is a refreshing blend that helps con
...trol breakouts and leaves my skin feeling clean and balanced. The scent is crisp and invigorating, and the size is perfect for daily use. I’ve noticed a real benefit in reducing acne and improving my skin’s texture. It’s become a go-to product for maintaining clear and healthy skin. Definitely worth trying for anyone dealing with acne-prone skin!

Really Good Face Wash. I am not young, but I have skin that loves to develop acne from sunscreen, some moisturizers, and simply living. Alba Botanica
...Deep Pore Wash is my second step after an oil cleanse to remove makeup, and it leaves my skin clean and soft, without any residue, and without drying. I usually prefer fragrance free for my face, but I like the light citrusy scent of this wash. The bottle and label have updated, but the formula is the same. I was happy to discover that.
A little goes a long way, so the bottle lasts awhile.
