Tried and true cleanser for 20 years! I’ve tried countless other brands’ cleansers (biossance, glossier, tatcha) and nothing ever compares to Shishedo! ...I find this very effective for decongestion and deep cleansing, more than the average cleanser for sure. I find that my skin works best if I rotate cleansers, so it doesn't adjust, but I still use this one regularly.
