Bioré has a reasonably complicated array of cleansers available. I'm a big fan of the Combination Skin Balancing Cleanser - months on now, my skin hasn't dried out and I'm using such a tiny amount it feels like the never ending cleanser.
I won a full size of the new Blemish Clearing Scrub. Now, I'm not normally a fan of combination scrub/cleansers. Firstly, I'm not convinced I need to exfoliate like that every day and secondly, I often find them drying. However, my other half does use this type of thing so I figured even if it wasn't quite right for me, I'd be able to find it a happy home.
Unlike the Balancing Cleanser this scrub has a very strong scent which is dominated by mandarin. Also, the main ingredient after water is not glycerin, but laureth-4 carboxylic acid. This is used in acne treatments and is a surfactant, so it basically helps the product foam. Having done this tiny bit of research, it's not surprise to me that I found this product dried out my skin. Also, I really disliked its strong scent.
Handed over to my other half, he's decided it's not as good as his usual product and, like me, he finds it 'too orange-y'.
So overall, this product is a miss, rather than a hit.
Widely available. RRP ~ $11.
