About the packaging
I appreciate that the product was wrapped with plastic which ensures safe first opening.
As for the tube, it’s handy to use. The 250ml tube offers a flip top cap.
In fact, it’s of nice quality and moreover, recyclable.

About the consistency and aroma
The gel is rather runny. I don’t think it goes well with the packaging because the formula is clear and a tad yellow.
The aroma rocks my socks off - juicy grapefruit that feels so natural! It doesn’t linger and disappears after use.

About the results
The gel lathers well itself, so I don’t have to use any additional bubble makers. It also comes off well but my skin doesn’t feel squeaky clean afterwards.
In fact, I love the results from this product. I mean my skin feels clean, with pure pores. However, my skin still feels a little bit tugged and only a thick moisturizer can revive it. That’s not good.
About ethical aspect
The product wasn’t tested on animals. It’s free from artificial colors, fragrances, parabens, phthalates, sodium lauryl/laureth sulfate or sodium myreth sulfate.
Overall thoughts
This product is definitely good and it’ll flatter combo and oily skin types. If your skin is dry, it’s better to use it only when it’s hot. The cleansing properties are great. The price is okay. The aroma is awesome and this is actually what I need from a good product!
