When you apply it to your skin, it melts and blends into your skin. It feels very gentle on the skin. There are many similar cleansers out there these days, and they're all good.
My nose has become smoother. I feel like it's also effective against blackheads. I'm grateful that I don't need to wash my face. You can try it in a small size, so if you're interested, I recommend giving it a try! I'm buying it again.
I used to love the normal type of Duo. This is the first time I've tried the black package, which I received from Suzykirei. Basic information: Dry skin, oily T-zone, redness on cheeks, natural-looking makeup. Thoughts: Like the normal type, it has a texture that melts with body temperature and blends perfectly into the skin. It removes makeup well, so perhaps because it shortens cleansing time, I didn't notice any tightness after washing. ♀ I took it with me on a trip, and not needing to double cleanse was convenient and convenient. ♀ If there's one thing I'm concerned about, it's that it takes quite a while to wash off the cleanser. I'm hoping that if I continue using it, it will target my pores, so I'll keep using it until it's gone.
I assumed it would have a charcoal-like scent, but it actually smells more like a sports drink, like Pocari Sweat. It's very smooth, so be careful not to remove too much. It also removes makeup well. The spatula can be stored in the lid.
Thank you for the sample I received from Suzykirei!! I was surprised by the black appearance, but I was impressed by how well it blends into my skin and how it washes off so easily. After washing, my skin feels so smooth and reborn, and I'll definitely be buying it again!!
