I love what the reviewer before me said- i couldn't say it better- i dont think people understand all the things that this cleanser does.. i dont use it to remove makeup (like eye makeup) so i use whatever bottles of cleaner from any other brand before hand (i still need to delve into the Bare Minerals foaming and the other one too) but the treatment cleanser really is unique. it is almost hot once its mixed with water- i can almost feel it working like a slight sting on all my acne, but it does so much more than salisylic acid or bezol peroxide- these "active soil complex's" must be amazing- it cleared up some bumps all over my face (that isn't acne i dont know what it is- like irritation probably from all my other chemicals) it makes your face crystal clear. truly amazing! it says you can use it twice a day- there are few exfolliators that can be used that much- so i worry a little i use it too much, but its great stuff! Thanks BE Bare Minerals!!! love all your stuff!

Can this be used with the Clarisonic?
I just bought a Clarisonic and it says not to use it with exfoliating cleansers-does this include non-harsh BE exfoliating cleansers? Or just gritty drugstore brands. Anyone have experience with this? Thanks.
my guess is no. there are lots of granuals and its a thicker paste that is created when you activate it with water- i feel like clarisonic is better with the clear foams.

Ingredients?
First, let me say that I love BE products, and I've been pleased with every item I've tried so far, including the Purifying Facial Cleanser, Purely Nourishing Moisturizer, and Firming Eye Treatment in this line. My question, though, is about ingredients:
I'm trying to figure out what I "should" be using at age 25 for the best skin care. I'm reading a lot that for 25-35, cleansers with salicylic acid and masks/peels with glycolic acid are still best (even though I know the word "acid" is scary to a lot of people). This product has neither, and I'm just curious ... Does anyone else subscribes to this kind of ingredient loyalty? Does it really make much difference, or are these things worth seeking out? Thanks!

i have an expensive Glucolic Acid face wash from Trish McEvoy and i feel like the active soil complex is doing more for me than this and BY FAR more than the acids (salicylic, etc) just try it- its perfect for our age range! i did it on auto delivery because i was using so much, but then canceled it because i am using it too much haha! it has an amazing consitancy and warms some when activated and works deep but also brightens- its great!
