Shea Terra Organics Argan Oil & Acacia Honey Facial Wash Cleanser - Anti Aging, Breakout & Wrinkle Reducing Face Wash for Clear & Reduced Pores - With Organic & Natural Ingredients - 4 oz

I love this stuff. I first bought this almost a year ago it was in like sept of 2013. I did not initially read the directions and instead i stupidly went off of what other people said on here in reviews and even on reviews on youtube. They all said to lather and rinse on my face like a normal face wash. Wrong. This method did not work for me and i didn't see any change in my acne so I of course put it in my medicine cabinet to collect dust. I don't know if the directions changed during the time between the publishing of those reviews and my receiving the product or what, but my directions are different, which i didn't figure out until about a week ago. The directions on my bottle say to leave the product on your face for 5-10 mins. Yes, my product says facial wash, not mask. Not even "facial wash and mask" just "facial wash". I had been using proactiv+ from about late march of this year until about june. Proactive made my skin look more agitated than before i started using it and it never got better so i went back to what i was using before, cerave. Cerave was better than proactiv but did not solve all of my problems. I still had breakouts whenever my skin decided to and my pores continued to be ginormous. Sooo one day last week i decided that i had nothing to lose and gave this product another try this time actually reading and following the directions. Presto, my skin looks better than it has in years. Im 19 and am sick of having to worry about my skin. This product is the only thing that has successfully and effectively cleared my pores. Ive tried countless masks and charcoal face washes but nothing. This was just perfect. Im not all the way there yet since its only been a week, but my skin seriously looks better than it has in years. I use this product twice a day everyday and leave it on for 5-10 mons usually ten but i start my soph year of college monday so that could change haha and it does not irritate my skin at all nor leave it dry at all but instead so smooth and soft. I love this stuff.

I'd bought this long ago and somehow it got lost in a drawer and unused. So glad I rediscovered it, it's nothing short of incredible. The soap is very dark and very thick! I pump it once in the palm of my hand and then initially apply it in 3 dollops, one to the forehead and then each cheek. I then smear it evenly to cover my face up into my hairline. It creates a coating that forms a sort of mask when left on for the 5 or 10 minutes as recommended. I like to apply it before stepping into the shower because it takes some vigorous rinsing and lots of water to remove it completely, made much simpler under the blast of the shower head. It seems to deep clean my skin like few other products I've used. I have normal to oily skin so can use it almost every day without causing dryness, though more sensitive skin types might need it only 3 or 4 times a week. When I alternately rinse it just over my sink, I was impressed with the apparent accumulation of surface skin cells liberated, I see in the water, so it has a definite gentle exfoliating factor. It's incredible how bar cleansers omit the word "soap" from their title, mainly because they're not soap but an accumulation of often harsh chemicals. Real soap is rendered from some fat source in a chemical process called saponification. What used to be considered simple "soap" which cleans gently, thoroughly and inertly now requires a more expensive specialty product. But in this case it's well worth it. It also contains rosehip oil which I incidentally apply nightly and buy seperately. Benefits of rose hip oil can be explored online but among other things, contains vitamin C which is one of the few things that encourages collagen regeneration. Very enthusiastic about this product and I now use it nightly.

I did not enjoy this cleanser at all. I read reviews that talk of using as an exfoliant, as a weekly mask, reviews that said it smelled amazing- like rosemary. It is a dark brown gel that does not smell "good". It doesn't smell like chemicals, but it doesn't smell like essential oils or any plants I'm familiar with either.I assumed it would have some sort of natural microbead/exfoliant in it based on other reviews but it does not have anything of the sort, it is just a smooth gel. I tried it as a face mask as others said and it did stick to my skin, but seemed too thin to get proper coverage. It left my skin feeling very clean and even kind of taught, which is most likely good for acne and aging as others have mentioned. I can't make myself endure it long enough to find out.EDIT**** I left this in the shower and my husband starting using it. He LOVES it. I have had to order several bottles since at his request and it's now the only face wash he will use, even knowing it's price tag (and he's a very frugal man, especially when it comes to "beauty products") I will use it occasionally when my go-to face wash runs out and the texture/scent has grown on me. I do like the squeaky clean feel it provides after use and it is good for acne if you have oily skin.

I used this cleanser for about a month. I found it to be exactly what it claims to be...very exfoliating and deep cleaning as well as natural. I was surprised that it was even able to take off my makeup which my previous cleanser certainly couldn't do. Unfortunately, I found it a little too harsh for twice daily, or even daily use. My skin would sting and get quite red after using this, even without leaving it on for 5-10 minutes as directed. I also felt like it was over-exfoliating my skin, like it was a little raw afterward. I didn't notice that it cleared up or helped prevent any blemishes...maybe with more prolonged use, but my skin was just to sensitive to find out. I have since switched to a "beldi" black soap with is like a more gentle version of this so my skin likes it better.

Its not a great product and not value for money. Not for indian skin

Honestly one of the best cleansers I've ever used. Feels great and leaves my pores nice and tight. It's perfect for my oily acne-prone skin but I can see how it may be drying for someone with dry skin. The scent may also be an issue for some people. I'm personally really fond of herbal scents so I like it. Definitely give it a try!

Vraiment impressionnant d'efficacité. Ne pas laisser poser plus de 10min et bien hydrater la peau apres utilisation. Je l'utilise également pour mon mari, et l'ai recommandé à de nombreuses amies.

Brilliant product! Totally cleared up skin. Helped inflammated pores to calm down and heal. Cleanses really well. Skins feels squeaky clean and looks healthy pink. Pores reduce in size, skin is smooth, worth leaving for 5-10 minutes as recommended on the bottle. Do not leave for hours, it dries skin out, leaving red marks. Very very pleased, although it is really pricey. However, it will last for a while, a small amount is enough for the whole face.Dispatch was next day, and it was delivered next day after dispatch, surprisingly quick during Christmas time. Thank you very much for that. Will be back!

It has cleared my face. I can wear no make-up/no foundation now. I am so grateful for this product! Anyone with acne/skin issues should try this!!
