Mario Badescu Glycolic Foaming Cleanser for All Skin Types| Exfoliating Face Wash with Glycolic Acid & Aloe Vera| Visibly Evens Skin Tone & Texture

I Can’t Believe it’s not Irritating™
I have hypersensitive skin (I get rashes instead of regular breakouts) and I needed a chemical exfoliant. I also wear makeup everyday. This saved my skin, point blank period. I use it about every other day because I do get oily when I wear makeup, and I know my pores are STRESSED lol. It doesn’t make my skin peel, and unlike other reviewers, it doesn’t leave my skin dry. Just refreshed? And it’s ridiculously soft afterwards.I seriously cannot believe this cleared up my blackheads AND reduced my hyperpigmentaion from acne scars in just 2 weeks. This stuff is freaking amazing.Packaging: 10/10I LOVE the packaging. It has a great little spout that’s super hygenic. I used this in the shower and absolutely no water got in it.Product: 10/10I still can’t believe I didn’t break out from this. I’m starstruck. You won’t need a peel if you use this. I’m serious.Price: 10/10I’m not trying to give Mario Badescu any bad pointers but…. if I had used this without knowing the price, I would’ve guessed it would of cost >$50. Seriously. And it doesn’t run out! I’ll edit this review when I finally reach the end of it.100/100 — ADid this review help you out? Then please click the “Helpful” button below!

MARIO B. …You’ve done it again!
Game changer. Oily, dull, uneven color and blemished acne prone skin–BEGONE! After a year of using this, I’ve finally decided it’s time to sing it’s praises from the mountain tops!I was looking for products that contained glycolic acid and After doing extensive Google research on the pros and cons of GA, I decided that peels were just too risky for me. Even the most “for sensitive skin” GA Peels on the market could potentially be too strong for someone just dabbling or barely starting their GA journey.One day I was at ULTA and a friend of mine was raving about how amazing MARIOS skin care line was. I saw a bottle of this GA foaming wash and for $20 I thought, “oh What the heck ” It’s pricey but not as pricey as other GA products on the market. And damn, I’m so glad I took a chance because this has seriously and drastically improved the quality of my skin.I have combination oily acne prone Pacific Islander skin.This GA wash dissolves stubborn sebum and gunk which allows your skin/pores to breathe. Your other facial products are therefore more effective by allowing products like toners, serums, moisturizers to sink in instead of just sitting on top of dead nasty skin!The amount of GA in this product is just right—did not burn or cause redness or peeling. It simply sloughs away the dead dry skin and funk, chemically (there are no beads or grains), and washes away with water. GA is a chemical exfoliate after all.I recommend using a moisturizer with sunscreen (Aveeno SPF30–another game changer) daily while using this product. Scratch that! Even if you don’t use GA you should be using SS daily anyway lol.As far as claims on here that this MARIO B. GA FOAMING WASH is a fake, don’t believe it. Its exactly the same as the ones sold at ULTA. I think the reviews claiming it’s a knock off just want a free bottle. They most likely poured the stuff out and replaced it with something else hoping for a refund. *Insert eyeroll emoji here lol*PRO TIP: A little of this stuff goes a LONG way. Two pea sized dollops or even just one pea sized dollops is enough to get suds going. If you’re careful and use only that much this will last you a good while.

Thrilled with the price

Love it, doesn’t over-dry skin, smells wonderful, feels like it’s working well.I use it all over face but NOT NEAR EYES as glycolic acid is not meant for around eye area. However, even if you don’t use it on/near eyes, when you rinse your forehead (esp in shower) some of the suds will run down over your eyes and can sting a little. But it’s a good sting, if you know what I mean. 🙂

El producto llegó a tiempo, bien empacado y sin derrames. Me decidí a comprarlo después de investigarlo y enterarme que además de ser un excelente producto de belleza también ayuda a disminuir la pigmentación facial.La presentación del producto es buena, el dosificador es un plus, ya que no desperdicias producto y usas la cantidad adecuada y genera suficiente espuma limpiadora. Es un gel un poco espeso por lo que con poco producto obtienes una buena espuma limpiadora.El olor del ácido es relativamente fuerte sin llegar a molestar. El producto dice ser para todo tipo de piel y sugiere usar 2 veces a la semana si se es de piel seca y de 2 a 3 veces si se tiene la piel mixta. En mi caso soy de piel mixta y sensible. La primera vez que lo usé, aun habiendo limpiado mi cara previamente con un agua micelar y lavarme la cara, les he de decir que me bajó de la piel tal cantidad de impurezas que me quedé muy sorprendida, de hecho en casa me dijeron que se me notaba más ahora la pigmentación por el hecho de haberme limpiado la cara a profundidad. Después de lavarme la cara me quedó cierta rojez en el rostro, soy de piel sensible, pero no me provocó ni rasquera ni ardor ni nada parecido. Al poco rato desapareció. El rostro me quedó liso, mate y ligeramente seco, es necesario aplicar un tónico y una crema hidratante posteriormente. Durante el proceso de enjuague me he percatado que crea una barrera en el rostro evitando que se pierda la humedad de la piel, es decir después de unos momentos sientes como el agua solo resbala por tu cara como si la hiciera impermeable, es la primera vez que siento esta sensación con un limpiador.Llevo un mes usando el producto, la primera semana usé el producto todas las noches y he de decir que el tono general de mi piel ha mejorado bastante, me ha eliminados el exceso de impurezas del rostro. Después de ese semana pude notar que La zona seca de mi cara, mi piel es mixta, se ha hecho visiblemente un poco mas seca, por lo que he optado no usar el producto todos los días en dicha zona y de manera general prefiero usarlo de acuerdo a las indicaciones del fabricante, de 2 a 3 veces por semana. Es necesario usar crema humectante, yo estoy usando una de nivea y me funcionan de maravilla ambos productos. En resumen es un buen producto. La relación precio calidad es insuperable pero hasta el momento, en lo personal, no he visto algún efecto favorable sobre mis áreas con pigmentación.
