I bought this when mud facial cleansers were all the rage. It was a bit degreasing and left my skin feeling dry. Pelican's Marche Bon Moroccan Clay Soap, which also contains mud, leaves my skin feeling moisturized.
I used it because it came in a Bloom Box. I didn't notice any particular warmth, and there was no change in the pores on my nose.
I bought this because I was worried about my husband's strawberry nose, and it's been amazing. The blackheads in his pores have cleared up, and I think his skin has become one tone whiter. He himself gave it rave reviews, which is unusual for him, so I tried it myself and it was refreshing to use, but not tight. The foam is fine and sticky, but it rinses off cleanly. The reason the reviews aren't so good is because it's not a warming sensation (lol), which is why I think it's disappointing? It's true that it doesn't have a warming sensation (lol), but it's even better than that, so I'll definitely be buying it again.
It leaves your skin feeling smooth and squeaky clean after washing. It's gray in color and I mainly use it as a body soap. It leaves your skin feeling squeaky clean, but it's not irritating and is easy to use. It doesn't have any particular scent.
I tried it because it was included in a cosmetics subscription. It doesn't make my skin feel tight and my pores are gradually becoming less noticeable. I don't feel any heat, but it suits my skin so well that I've bought a second one and am using it again.
