Great product, terrible leaky packaging!
This wash is fantastic, my skin loves it, I love the sweet woodsy scent ... but the tube / product packaging seems to be cheap. The flip cap has a VERY weak hinge which broke during transit and leaked all over my sink and countertop. I'm treating the original packaging as unreliable by taping it shut during storage and using a generic dispenser day to day.

Not just for “Active People”!
I originally bought this for my SO. He’s a chef, and after working long hours in a hot kitchen wearing a heavy chef’s uniform, he has a lot of uncomfortable sweat-related issues. He liked it so much that I decided to try it for the chub rub and underboob rashes that plague me every summer. Sweet relief! My swampy spots are clean and healthy, and it’s surprisingly moisturizing for a purifying cleanser. I’m also really sensitive to perfumes and heavy fragrances, but the tea tree, eucalyptus, and thyme combo is clean and fresh, and somehow simultaneously energizing and calming. As for the price, a small amount of this cleanser goes a really long way. We would normally go through a water-based cheaper cleanser in this size in about a week. We’ve been using this for 2 weeks and it’s only about halfway gone. I try to be thrifty with most things but this product is more than worth the price tag!

A little goes a long way
The first thing I noticed was the scent, which I would think others would also find appealing. When I used it, I was happy to find that a little product went a long way. Although this is a liquid soap, it felt like a bar soap on my skin. For me, it did a great job at cleaning and deodorizing my skin.

Great Detox Body Wash
Been using this once a week for about a month and it works great. Skin feels detoxed after and stripped of the nasty oils but not over stripped like a lot of products out there. My skin remained soft and smooth after and felt truly cleaner and fresher. Like I mentioned I only use it once a week personally but I don't see where it would be a problem to use it more frequently if you want to. Its another great product from an already outstanding company !
