I was really excited to try this product because I wear foundation, concealer, and powder everyday (among the rest of my eye makeup), and I want to ensure at the end of the day that my face is super clean to avoid a breakout. When I first tried Amie's Morning Clear Purifying Facial Wash I was a bit confused. It doesn't lather up nearly as quickly as other facial washes, and although my face felt super soft after, I didn't quite feel "clean". It's has a thick creamy texture, and feels like a thick cream (think cocoa butter) rather than a light foamy facial wash that I'm used to. I'm sure it's because of all the natural ingredients and it's formula to leave the skin soft (and of course, after reading the ingredients, it sure is packed with cocoa butter! Explains the thick formula). I'm not sure if this will lead to further breakouts (it might clog my pores), but it's something I'll have to look out for after using this a lot more. I'm sure it will be VERY useful now that the colder weather is coming and my skin will start to dry out.

I plan to continue using this (maybe alongside another facial cleanser just to ensure maximum cleansing! haha) and I hope my skin stays velvety smooth :) I'll just have to remember to massage it on my face longer than my usual facial wash to get some sort of lather going. I read other reviews online (just to see if maybe mine was a bad batch or something), but most people have the same concerns like me. However, a lot of people who continued to use it over a longer period of time do say that their skin is much softer and smoother. So I'll have that to look forward to :)
