9Wishes - MeaningInMakeup review for Rice Foaming Cleanser

I received this product for free from Picky and 9Wishes in exchange for my honest review. Glycerin is the very first ingredient on the list, which explains why it was such a moisturizing exfoliator. This is a purely physical exfoliant, without exfoliating acid based ingredients. Instead it uses ground rice. As someone with dry leaning skin, I found that this exfoliating cleanser was nice and gentle, and didn’t overly strip my skin of moisture. It both felt moisturized after use, and like the top layer of dead skin was gone. It’s not quite as refreshing as an acid based exfoliator in my opinion, but some days I don’t want to use a chemical exfoliator. Especially if I plan on using actives like retinol or vitamin C after this face wash. It’s safe to use with a non-acid based exfoliator like this one. It also features willow bark, which is an ingredient that can help with sebum production/acne. Meaning it is meant to also work for people with more oily leaning or acne prone skin. But I’ll let other reviewers with those skin types to speak to whether it works for their skin type too or not. Granted I do get acne as well, it’s usually smaller white heads that clear up easily (most of the time, sometimes I get deep painful hormonal ones). I love that this cleanser this is free of synthetic colorants and fragrances. Fragrance is the very last ingredient on the list, meaning that the scent is an incredibly small percentage. As someone with a sensitive nose, I had no issues with the smell of this product. It was so minimal I could barely register a scent on this product. In my opinion, it mostly just smelled of rice which is a very light scent anyway.
