Impressions:
- no scent, but there is a very very light acidic smell
- leaves your T-zone (and any part of the oilier areas of your face) oily
- makes your skin very very soft (since it is an exfoliant)
- must use twice a day (to see and maintain results)
- causes your more sensitive skin (e.g. acne-prone, eczema, etc) with a slightly uncomfortable irritating tingly feeling
- consistency is slightly thicker than water, a bit similar to toners
- they recommended using this on the face and neck, but I didn't feel any significant changes to the skin on my neck after using it for 2 weeks...
I love this product! My skin loves it... and I saw visible results within days of using it. Please be aware that your more sensitive skin (acne areas, eczema, and thinner skin areas) will have a slightly irritating tingly feeling (but that should go away within a few minutes). Also, be aware that it will leave the oilier parts of your face (e.g. t-zone area) much oilier. The oiliness doesn't produce acne or anything concerning, it just looks very shiny.
Make sure you use this product twice a day to see results... there were days where I only used it once and my skin did not see as good results (as in, my skin wasn't as smooth as it would have been if I had used it twice a day).
Also, since you are exfoliating your skin, it will definitely be more sensitive to the sun, so if you are using this in the daytime, make sure to follow up with a moisturizer and some sunscreen.
