i order this product from my facial shop 2 years ago. However, I still have much as I only needed to use with a little amount on my t zone. Moreover, its cleansing effect is gentle and amazing. I love it as a gentle deep cleansing product which can be used quite frequently on my t zone.

I quite like this as well and find it to be useful when I'm too lazy to use Dr Hauschka cleansing cream on a regular basis.

I didn't like this when I first tried it though and then figured out that it's best used with lots of steam - i.e. in the shower! Before I started doing that it was pretty much useless.

I used it for the first time today. It's quite thick and you need a clothe to rinse it off. I liked it but I prefer using a product that I can rinse off using my fingers only.

Not at all. My skin was soft and did not feel dry.

I got this product for free from EDS and like it. My face seems to look good after I use it.

Same here. I'm getting cautious of the ingredients listed. A lot of parabens and there's cetyl alcohol. Doesn't sound that good for skin :/

I always want to try it. Please suggest whether it will cause dehydration???And can it be used for the whole face instead of just T-zone?

I was totally underwhelmed by it when I used it years ago. Yes, it did temporarily tighten and dry the skin, but it didn't really cleanse or purify it, IMO. Any clay mask, like DrH, would work as well and be cheaper.

This is probably the BEST exfoliator around. Be sure to use a tiny amount. Does not dry, cleans the skin thoroughly, no abrasiveness to the skin.

Desquacrem, for a deeply cleansed, radiant skin


I quite like this product as well. I got a free sample from EDS. After finishing my Dermalogica's cleansing gel, i will most likely try this product.

To me, it smells really nice, also very subtle and not strong at all, has a relatively creamy texture, and doesnt dry the skin out.

I was quite worried that due to its creamy texture, this cleanser will leave a residue afterwards. Especially as the package says to remove with moist sponges, and as I am usually a "do everything in the shower" person, I just rinse it off with water.
It still leaves a smooth feeling, not dry at all.

I use toner afterwards, just to make sure no residue is left on my skin, and Surprisingly, the cotton ball can't pick up any cleansing residue at all.
So, in my opinion, a good cleanser that really does the work
