I prefer to use is as a face mask a couple of times a week instead of a cleanser, though (even though it's also amazing as a cleanser!). ...Its not too drying, but good for when you are feeling oily and need a deep cleanse. It can be used as a cleanser or a mask.

A powerful, multifunctional cleanser that washes away dead skin cells, pore-clogging oil, and build-up while smoothing and firming skin.
