As someone with dry sensitive skin who wants a deeper pore cleanse now and then but nothing that will burn my face off this product has proven to be perfect for me. My skin couldn't handle The Ordinary's AHA 30% + BHA 2% Peeling Solution which is a pity since it's very reasonably priced, but it irritated my skin too much. Even this product isn't entirely non-irritating to me but that's to be expected for me when using anything including BHA's. My skin turned red after the first time I used it but since then it's barely been irritating, which surprises me, it seems it has enough soothing ingredients to dampen the impact of the acids.
Another great thing about this product is that you only leave it on for 1 minute, which is great for someone like me who ultimately wants to get my routine over with as quickly as possible. Apparently my skin appreciates the "bandaid rip off" type of skincare instead of a longer soak. In the end this product leaves my skin feeling very soft and I at least like to imagine it has made my pores look smaller. Perhaps the most prominent impact of this product though is helping to prevent the build-up of milia and blackheads that I'm prone to. I've noticed a quantifiable difference in that regard since I started using this product.
