My review of Plum Green Tea Pores Cleansing Face Wash Review
I have been using this face wash for more than 2 weeks now. I use it while taking a bath in the morning and before going to bed at night. This face wash claims to be suitable for oily, acne-free, and combination skin and from my experience, I agree to this.
After washing face my skin feels nicely skin without any dry, tight, or stretched feeling. After using this face wash,I did not feel the need to immediately follow up with a moisturizer. So this face wash certainly meets its claim of deep cleansing without non -drying.
While using this, I did not observe any change in blackheads, or pimples. I got a couple of small bumps during my monthly cycle, which was controlled with the continuous use of this face wash. Thankfully it did not become big, painful pimples.
My skin tends to get oily in summers due to sweat, and this face wash kept my skin oil-free for an hour.
I only have a problem with its smell. It has a strong soap smell. Thankfully, the smell does not linger long and fades away after washing the face.
I follow up this face wash with Mamaearth skin plum serum and Mamaearth oil-free moisturizer. The trio of this gives me clean, nicely moisturized, and hydrated skin.
