Above average product, but beware of shipping damage,
Let me start by reviewing the product itself. Full disclosure: I am most definitely not a face wash aficionado. I’ve never found a face wash that I felt was far superior to the rest, and I don’t think that this one is particularly special. But I have found face washes that were clearly inferior to the rest, and I have found face washes that were ludicrously overpriced. The good news is that this product is neither overpriced (at least on Amazon) nor inferior.
Here’s the rundown:
Scent: a distinctly masculine odor that’s fresh but not overdone (this is NOT Brut).
Texture: slippery gel that works into a thin lather as you scrub.
Quantity: a penny-size dollop will take care of your face; this means the product should last several months.
Finish: leaves skin feeling oil-free, smooth, and perhaps a bit dry, depending on your skin type.
Packaging: container is stable and easy to use; the plastic is strong enough that the top shouldn’t crack off.
For the product alone, I’d give 4.5 stars. Gets the job done. Can’t ask for much more in a face wash.
So far, so good. But here’s the (potential) catch: as a result of inadequate packaging on Amazon’s end, mine arrived squashed, with about 25 percent of its contents irretrievably lost. I did not bother to return the item (how do you ship a big wet mess back to Amazon), but I did provide feedback to Amazon about the packaging problem. Hopefully they will resolve this issue so that we can buy with greater confidence.

Good scent,
I like sleeping with a clean face because your face gets oily and picks up a lot of dirt during the day and I don’t like the thought of wiping all that stuff off on to my pillow when I sleep.
I don’t use soap because it drys up your face so I tried this.
1) I like the tube because it’s easy to use.
2) Cleans nicely and doesn’t leave your face dry.
3) I usually don’t like strong scented stuff but sometimes you just need some scent to cover up assorted smells you pick up during the day.
I recommend this mainly because of 2), i.e. it doesn’t dry your face up but still cleans nicely.

I LOVE THIS STUFF!!!,
This is by far the BEST face wash I’ve ever used, it cleans my face very thoroughly. It is definitely invigorating, perfect for the morning “wake-up shower”. I love the way this makes my face feel.
