Left residue and caused acne
I really wanted to like this product but I really hated it for my skin. In fact it made my skin worse. The only positive was that my skin looked less red because of the calamine. I still had existing acne/cystic acne and it did nothing for it but made it worse. It clogged my pores and was terrible to wrinse off.. I always felt residue left over even with a toner. Just bad all over for me.

Pros:

It smells good.

Cons:

It can make acne worse.

Everyone should know that all the acne cleansers that Lush sells (Coalface, Fresh Farmacy, Mask of magnimity) are scrubs. As in, they contain some sort of hard grainy bits that scrub your face. This might be good for some kinds of acne, but I know from all the research I've done that any kind of irritation is bad for acne-prone skin. I found that this stuff turned my mild-moderate acne into moderate-severe acne. Sure, it feels nice to scrub at your skin, but you run the risk of making things worse. Everyone has differnt skin, so you should probably talk to a derm before deciding that a scrub is right for your skin. It wasn't for me!
