The skin is actually somewhat softer / smoother. However, the smell of the product is very reminiscent of wallpaper paste. I also usually only fragrance-free products, however, so unpleasant smells none. That made me at first not very disturbed, with regular use of the smell but unpleasantly. In addition, the ingredients are not ideal. Especially the small plastic spheres are strong in the discussion because they reach now even again the food chain. I am not so convinced about the effect that I assume odor and environmental impact into account. I would not buy the cleaning again. A good alternative is the cleansing of Eucerin for combination skin for me. Gently cleanses the skin and removes makeup thoroughly.
