The product: Dove Beauty Moisture Creamy Lather Facial Wash
Price: 395pesos
Rating: 9/10
Where I bought it: Watsons, SM Supercenter Pasig
(+):
- Lathers well
- Rinses off easily
- Cleanses skin thoroughly
- Not very drying on the skin
- Has a light, pleasant floral scent which doesn't trigger my allergic rhinitis
- Does not cause redness or itchiness
- Does not cause me to break out (may even actually be helping keep my skin clear)
- A small amount goes a long way!
- The pump works well. It is easy to press/push and the amount of product expressed from the pump is controllable. There is also a lock included which prevents accidental presses.
(-):
- Rather expensive for a drugstore brand facial wash
- Limited availability--I've only seen this in Watsons. It's not available in the supermarkets I've been to whereas other Dove facial washes are displayed there.
- It comes in a big bottle so it may not be travel-friendly as it will take a bigger space than other facial washes.
I was going to start this blog entry by saying how second year of medical school kept me so busy making me have less time for myself (and this blog) but yeah, you know that already. ^__~
