Review 1 for The Microdelivery Exfoliating Wash
Favorite face wash!
-05.21.13
Quick Take: exfoliating
Love this face wash, I use it twice a day everyday! It has exfoliating beads in it, but yet its still gentle enough for me to use daily, and I have extremely sensitive skin!

Amazing facewash!
-05.17.13
Quick Take: exfoliating, milky
This face wash is great. It exfoliates, but isn't too harsh or over drying on your skin. I typically use it at the end of the day. Gentle enough to use every day.

Review 4 for The Microdelivery Exfoliating Wash
Doesn't "wash" or foam at all
-05.13.13
I like this wash, but I don't love it. For one, it doesn't wash or cleanse the skin AT ALL. If you have any makeup on, including BB cream, this will NOT remove it. You have to use a separate cleanser and then use this to exfoliate after. It's fine in the shower in the morning if you have completely bare skin, but otherwise this will not cleanse the skin, which is a bummer, since this is called a skin "wash."
I do think it exfoliates nicely and is gentle to the skin, but I can't say I've seen a huge improvement since using it. It also doesn't foam at all and has no scent, which I know some people like, but I do prefer a scent of some kind - it just seems fresher and more pleasant to wash my face with something scented. Since it doesn't foam, you need quite a bit, more than a quarter size to truly exfoliate your face.
I think the Bliss Fabulous Foaming Face Wash exfoliates as well if not better, has a great light scent, and is a better product than this one.

Makes your skin feel so soft
-05.11.13
Quick Take: exfoliating
Love this exfoliater. I have used several products and they almost hurt because they were so abrasive. This product does the job but at the same time it is gentle on your face. After I rinse it off my face is so soft and has a nice glow.

Quick Take: exfoliating
This is a fantastic product to help exfoliate your face and neck. It is gentle enough to use daily, and once you try it, it will become part of your daily routine.

Review 8 for The Microdelivery Exfoliating Wash
Scrub didn't last long - just left with cleanser
-05.07.13
I have used less than half the bottle and the exfoliating scrubbing bits have run out and it is now just a cleanser. i really liked it, made my skin feel smooth after each use, but unfortunately it is no longer an 'exfoliant"
I even stored the bottle upside down for some time and shook the bottle before the last few uses, but unfortunately that hasn't made a difference.

Review 9 for The Microdelivery Exfoliating Wash
Great Product
-05.06.13
Quick Take: exfoliating
I use Microdelivery daily. This product helps prepare my skin for my night products and It would be hard to do without it. IIn the winter, I mix with Purity so it is less abrasive when my skin is drier. Love it!

Review 11 for The Microdelivery Exfoliating Wash
Smooooooth skin!
-05.02.13
Quick Take: exfoliating
My husband and I both love this product! I bought the smaller bottle the first time and after finishing it up, my husband asked if I was getting more. So the second time round, we got the bigger bottle. This product leaves your skin smooth, and we do feel that it is gentle enough to use every day although I do not. When I squirt a bit too much than I want, I rub it on my neck and neckline. Once we finish this, we will for sure go for another bottle, possibly the largest one!

Review 14 for The Microdelivery Exfoliating Wash
I just found my HG face scrub
-04.27.13
Quick Take: foamy, exfoliating, gentle, runny
I went into Sephora looking for a face scrub, tried a bunch on my hands, and narrowed it down to this and the Dior exfoliant. I almost bought the Dior one until I decided to do a side by side comparison to see which one exfoliated more. I initially thought Dior had scrubbier granules but to my surprise, Philosophy came out on top (also comes in a smaller/ cheaper size).
It's gentle enough for (my) every day use (but everyone is different). The exfoliating granules are super tiny, doesn't hurt at all. Gets rid of ALL of my dead skin. I kid you not- my face was so smooth after one use. Not only are the granules gentle, so is the wash itself. Does not dry my skin out AT ALL - no tight feeling afterwards. Lathers well. Texture is a little runnier so be careful squirting out of the bottle. Smell is bland, nothing special (no perfumes i think?). Will DEFINITELY be buying the bigger bottle when I finish this. It's worth the $. I'm pretty sure I just found my HG face scrub!

Good stuff, Maynard!
-04.22.13
This must be some sort of miracle formula. Since I began using it, my skin is clear, not greasy, and have had no breakouts. I think I had been trying to beat my skin into submission with harsher products. I love it.

Review 18 for The Microdelivery Exfoliating Wash
Is exactly as advertised and worth the hype
-04.19.13
Quick Take: exfoliating
I had wanted to try this for a long time but was put off by the price. I finally gave in and now I'm spoiled. This is the best exfoliating scrub I've ever used. It makes my skin feel so soft and smooth. I leaves my face feeling super clean. It also works wonders on my dry chapped lips. I'm hooked.

Review 19 for The Microdelivery Exfoliating Wash
Great Product
-04.14.13
Quick Take: foamy, exfoliating
I love this product because it can remove dead/peeling skin without drying out your skin. It is also gentle enough to use everyday and the exfoliating beads are so small they aren't at all painful. I've tried several exfoliating washes and this is the only one I continue to purchase.
