- Tracey E.Verified BuyerRated 5 out of 5 stars2 weeks agoOne of my favourites, for unxpected reasons!
I've been using this cleanser for a couple of years now and it's always been step two of my cleansing regime, after the Oat Balm cleanser.
Last year, I found a blog or reel somewhere that mentioned that salicylic acid cleansers can be used to clean your underarms if you've forgotten your deodorant as it kills the bacteria that cause bad odour. I wasn't sure how true this was, but during a sweaty holiday where I needed to feel fresh quickly for a night out, I washed my face and my underarms with this and immediately noticed that any residual odour I would normally get whilst on a holiday where I would sweat a lot, was completely gone! Absolute winner!
Thank you Inkey List!
