Biore Baking Powder Cleansing Scrub & Pore Cleanser

Biore Baking Powder Cleansing Scrub & Pore Cleanser

Disclaimer: I received these products free of charge from Influenster/Biore for testing purposes.

My background: I have combination skin and do not suffer from excessive acne.  My skin in frequently clear and I do not suffer from skin sensitivities. I have been fortunate to be able to use many kinds of skin products without negative implications.  One common thing which drives me crazy in terms of skin products is offensive smelling products.

When I received the cleansing scrubs I have to admit I was slightly intimidated to try it due to the powdery consistency. It just didn't make sense that I was going to put this on my face! When I review products I always give it a sniff test. DO NOT do this for this product lol it was a very BIG mistake and the powder nearly killed my nose and I was NOT expecting that I would literally breath in the product : ( It is also extremely fragrant!!!

Well once you get your face wet then apply the product it all came together and I was pleasantly surprised by the experience. The exfoliating quality is quite gentle but the product does what it claims. My only compliant regarding the product was the scent. I am extremely sensitive to offensive smells and this one unfortunately fell into that category. This is a shame because I really enjoyed the quality and experience of the actual product. I’m just not a fan of floral scents and that’s what this smells like.

I would buy this again if I go to the store and find other scents.

This Pore Cleanser was great and id definitely get it again.  It has a scent that isn’t my favorite but I can totally deal with it due to the other great qualities of the product.  I loved how thick the formula was and you can feel small and evenly distributed exfoliating beads.  I was left with that fresh AH-HAA feeling you get from great cleansers.  I was happy with the size and packaging of the product including the easy to use pump. I already have fairly soft skins so I cannot comment on whether or not the product did this.

For the duration of the testing, I used the product every day, twice a day.  I would be interested to see if there were complimenting creams and toners from this line.
