When my hormones shoot up when I became pregnant, my face began to produce excessive oil. My face and neck developed rashes which turned eventually into acne and it became my inferiority. Good thing HHN has a developed an all-natural facial wash which is for pregnant women to use. I used it twice a day for (almost a week) until I noticed that my face doesn't produce too much oil anymore. And just to maintain the oil balance, I use it once a day. I may still have the rashes (due to pregnancy hormones but is totally fine and tolerable), my face is now back to normal.

This is an efficient product in that the bottle lasts a really long time (you only need a small amount to cover the whole face), but in terms of oil control, I've experienced much better results with other products. On the plus side it does a good job of cleaning one's skin without leaving it feeling dry, but ultimately I need something that works in sebum-control. [EDITOR'S NOTE: Hello Keeshia! Thank you for purchasing our Balancing Facial Wash. We're sorry about your experience with the product and we'd love to help you in any way that we can. Kindly note that for some users, the skin can undergo adjustments as you transition from synthetic products to natural ones. In addition. many synthetic chemical products contain SLS and SLES which are detergents that strip off your skin's natural oils. When this happens, your skin tends to overproduce oil to compensate for what was removed by the product, making your skin oilier than normal. Nevertheless, we ill take your feedback into consideration for the future development of the product. Thank you!]

Mild yet effective cleanser. It cleans my skin without drying it out. My skin feels clean and moisturized after using it.

I love that this is so affordable and gentle on my face. I like the scrub feels. :) i bought many products from HN. They are not so available to all malls but Rustans is near us so we can just go there and buy. Also they have online shop which you can add instructions on delivery. Thank you HN for your feel good look good products. I feel the love whenever I use your products. :)

Effectively removes excess oil, dirt and make up on my face without making it dry. I use Balancing Toner after this followed by moisturizer (day or night, depends on the time) and they are indeed a great combination.

Hi HN! I switched to your products because it does not contain any harmful chemicals. I've been using the Balancing Facial Wash for 3 days now and the Balancing Facial Toner for 2 weeks now. I had lesser oil production on my T-zone and my pimples that I had from my previous product were gone. Two thumbs up for that! However, the only issue for me are the scrubs in the Balancing Facial Wash. Although I've read that it is a gentle scrub, I don't wash my face vigorously because I'm afraid that the scrubs could irritate my skin. I hope you could formulate a new Balancing Facial wash without the scrub yet still as effective as the current one. I'd love to try the Sunflower oil too! Hope it works! [EDITOR'S NOTE: Hello Abbyguel! We're so glad that you liked our Balancing Face Care line. We also appreciate your honest feedback on the scrubs and we will definitely take it into consideration for the future development of the product. In the meantime, you may try alternating our Nourishing Facial Wash with the Balancing Facial Wash so that you wouldn't have to scrub your face every day. Do let us know how our Sunflower Beauty Oil works for you. As with all products, we always recommend that you do a patch test first before using them extensively to help rule out adverse reactions. Thank you so much, Abbyguel! :)]

I bought the big one of this. The scrub in this cleanser cause skin stimulation and small cuts on skin in the long run. I think, scrubs like this should be only in physical exfoliating products that is used only few times a week. Not in cleansers that we use 2x daily, even if you said that's it's designed to be gentle, the scrub doesn't even melt down with water. Imagine massaging the cleanser on on your face for 60 seconds morning and night for what, weeks? or months maybe?. No matter what skin type you have, that's too much stimulation. I can't even use cleansing brush w/ this. Now, I use this once a day, every other day alternate w/ my other facial foam. using only my smallest fingers w/ super light circular motion. But the tiny scrubs are everywhere. Hope you improve this product. [EDITOR'S NOTE: Hello roobi04! Thank you for purchasing our Balancing Facial Wash.

I have sensitive and oily skin so I decided to purchase this 2 months ago and used it for a month. It was okay for few days t but my face became irritated, too bad I bought the big bottle. [EDITOR'S NOTE: Hello Veeki! Thank you for purchasing our Balancing Facial Wash. We're sorry about your experience and we'd love to help you in any way that we can. While our Balancing Facial Wash is absolutely free from harmful chemicals, it is possible that your skin is transitioning from synthetic products to natural ones.

Love love everything HHN so i have this and the toner. And these balancing products deliver. However after few hours my face returns to be so oily. I mean i use this in the morning and before i sleep. after usage my face is soft, clean and not greasy at all. But after a few hours, it's twice as oily as before. Am i doing something wrong or what? [EDITOR'S NOTE: Hello Joselie! Thank you for purchasing our Balancing Facial Wash and Balancing Face Toner. We understand your concern and we'd be happy to help you. We'll get in touch with you soon to provide further assistance. Thank you!]

This, together with the balancing toner, keeps oil and shine at bay. Its citrus scent is so refreshing that sometimes I end up massaging it on my face longer than I normally do. If you could come up with a scrub-free variant of this, it would be great. [HELLO: Jo Ann! We're so glad that you loved our Balancing Facial Wash. We also appreciate your feedback on the scrubs and we will surely consider this for the future development of our Face Care line. Thank you very much! :)]

Love this product, been using it since the day I received it. And my colleagues noticed that my skin looks good and it lightened my skin.

As much as I wanted to give 5 stars to this product, it makes me sad for having to give it 2 stars. I really love your brand and am using other products that HHN has to offer. The 1st day I used this I was very delighted because it made my face feel clean, soft, and moisturized. I used the balancing toner with it. But after a couple more days I broke out in the forehead. I bought the Acne Defense Gel but it didn't help. At first I ignored the pimples as I used to have whiteheads in the foreheads before, but this time with pus and they are reddish. Also, I never ever had any pimple on my cheeks but this gave me one big red and painful pimple to each of my cheek. It made me wanna hide my face. :( I really love your products and am supporting your advocacy. Been using it for more than a week now but it's not getting any better. Should I stop? Is there other product I can use? But I sooo love your Sunflower Beauty Oil and other stuff. [EDITOR'S NOTE: Hello Iya! Thank you for purchasing our Balancing Facial Wash. We're sorry about your experience and we'd love to help you in any way that we can. May we ask what your skin type is? While our Balancing Facial Wash is absolutely free from harmful chemicals, it is possible that you may be sensitive to one of its ingredients. In the meantime, we advise that you discontinue using the product until we can recommend you something that might be suitable for your skin. Thank you very much, Iya! We're looking forward to hearing from you. :)]

I use this together with the balancing toner and I love it! These are the only products that really did a good job of controlling the oil on my face. Since I used these products I only use 1-2 oil control films per day or sometimes I don't use one at all.

Hi! I started using this last 5days ago. Yhe first day was awsome coz it really lessen the oil in myface. But as days goes by i noticed that every night when i wake up it made my skin more oily. Like in my tzone area and the side of my nose so much shine on my face also the skinnnear my nose. :( i use this twice a day, i wash my face not more than 10secs. And oh i also use purifying scrub once after i bought it. These two really brighten my face but why is my face tends to produce more oil when i use this. Pls help me, should i discontinue or change to the nourishin face wash ugh im really sad right now. [EDITOR'S NOTE: Hello Marie Jernaldie! Thank you for purchasing our Balancing Facial Wash. We're sorry about your experience and we would love to help you as much as we can. Our Customer Service Team will get in touch with you soon to provide further assistance. Thank you very much.]

I've been using this facial wash together with the balancing toner since 2010, it does the job pretty well, most importantly in reducing the oiliness on my face and keeping it moisturized. And obviously, I'm loving it! :)

I have this product for about 2 weeks now and so far I love what it does to my face! The little beads is so gentle to my skin and I really feel that it cleans my face really well. I'm so glad that I tried this product! Good job HHN! All that's missing to my skin care regime is an all natural Clay Mask from your line :) Can you make something like that? I hope you do! Cheers!~ [EDITOR'S NOTE: Hello Veronica! We're so thrilled that you loved our Balancing Facial Wash. We recommend that you try our 100% Detoxifying Mask+Scrub. It has kaolin clay, a natural ingredient that naturally lifts dirt from the surface of the skin, provides skin tightening and cleaning properties and it helps dry up pimples. You can use it as a mask or a scrub 2-3 times a week. Thank you so much! :)]

I enjoy using this product because of the scrub and the light suds that are easy to rinse off. It's guilt-free too since they won't be an environmental problem like commercial washes with microbeads. However, considering that this facial wash has bamboo scrubs, I'm wondering if it's mild enough to use once or twice daily? Or will that be too abrasive? I have the purifying facial scrub which I alternate with this. I don't want to overdo the exfoliation. [EDITOR'S NOTE: Hello Nj! We're so glad that you liked our Balancing Facial Wash. It is mild enough to be used 1-2 times a day and we recommend that you apply light pressure when washing to keep abrasion at bay. Thank you so much! :)]

Balancing Facial Wash makes me confidently beautiful hahaha. A Human Nature lover here,! ^^v .. Been using this and other items since I was a high school student, until now as a college graduate... (6 years and counting) Hopefully, this is forever :D I love your products!!! Looking forward for new ones! :) Thanks for creating this brand, cares for both human and nature <3 ;D

Before I bought a bottle, I was having difficulty looking for the perfect facial wash. There may be a lot out there though the ones I find usually makes my skin feel very dry and in a few hours, my face would become so oily because of the chemicals. I have a very oily skin and then a good friend of mine recommended me this and didn't let me down when I bought one. I tried a button-drop of it and who knew it would be already enough for the whole day?! It totally gave my face a soft, matte finish. I'm very pleased of the outcome and will totally buy again. I can't wait to have the balancing facial toner next. Organic products are the best!

Before I use this balancing wash, I first used the nourishing one. I noticed that after washing it made my face clean but a bit dry. I continued using it for 2 weeks but the nourishing wash break me out in the forehead with the nourishing toner. So I dropped that combo and swithed to the balancing, knowing that I have combination to oily skin. It has fresher scent than that of the nourishing, even the toner smells like juice :) but I noticed that nothing has changed since I used the balancing combo. Day by day I'd notice pimples come and go (which is a good thing; they "GO" thanks to the acne gel solution) and it made my forehead rough and dry, though I use the day and night moisturizer, and the elixir. maybe this, too, isn't just for me I guess. But my family is loyal to HHN just so you know, I think I'll just try again, something that will work for me. [EDITOR'S NOTE: Hi c! Thank you for your honest feedback. We understand that combination skin can be tricky to solve. Our Balancing Facial Wash and Toner are specially formulated for combination skin and many users find that they work quite well for their skin type. However we understand that different users can react to products differently, especially because there are so many other factors that can contribute to pimples and breakouts. We recommend consulting a dermatologist to help you find the products that work for you. Our Customer Service will be in touch with you to help you out in any way they can :) Thank you so much for your support!]

I bought the facial wash because of my oily face. And so i tried it together with the Balancing Face Toner. The next day, when i looked in the mirror, there was a pimple on my forehead that wasn't there before. This also happened with the Purifying Facial Scrub. What i did was to take the Toner of my regimen and i noticed that the same thing still happens. I switched back to Cetaphil and then the next day, it reduced its size until there was none (i think it dried the pimple) I don't know if my skin is sensitive to one of the ingredients or i just need something (like the Acne Defense Solution Gel) to dry the pimple or it's just a side effect of going from one facial wash to another. Please help me out as soon as you can. :) [EDITOR'S NOTE: Hi Alexa! Thank you for your feedback. We're sorry to hear about your experience. Our Balancing Facial Wash is clinically tested and hypoallergenic, so it's unlikely to cause irritation or adverse reactions as compared to most products.

My face is really oily and I've tried all those expensive facial wash brands. Then came this and it is totally a game changer! My face is clear, not irritated at all (despite the beads which I thought would dry up my face). I use it everyday and my skin is very hiyang to it. Removes dirt and left over make up that my make up remover cannot reach. My friend saw that I had it and she gave it a try and she loves it too! More power HHN.

Tames my oily skin with Balancing Toner. Perfect combination for skin care regimen.

I have a very sensitive skin and this is one of the few products that works great on my skin. However, just this week, While I'm washing my face, I notice that it smells something weird. I checked the bottle and the expiration is still on July of this year, and it is not exposed directly on sunlight. What seems to be the problem? [EDITOR'S NOTE: Hi Rein! Thank you for your inquiry. We're quite surprised to hear about your experience because with proper storage, our products should be top quality within their shelflife. We'd like to look into your concern to see if you may have received a defective product. In any case, we would be happy to make it up to you in any way we can. Our Customer Service will be in touch with you soon to assist you :) Thank you!]

Hi, I was using this product since September. I bought a big bottle and since I only use small amounts and alternate it with hydrating facial wash, I'm still halfway with the product. Before, I can smell the citrus scent. However, it now smells like rotten orange. Is that supposed to smell like that? [EDITOR'S NOTE: Hi Maria Andrea! Thank you for your review. We're quite surprised to hear this as it is a quite unusual report. It's possible that the storage may have affected its quality. We recommend shaking the bottle well. If the scent is still rancid, we'd be happy to look into replacing your product if it is not past the expiration date. Our Customer Service will be in touch with you soon :) Thank you!]

It's refreshing. I use it daily, gentle wash. And the fragrance is sooooooo natural. :)

My skin reacts badly to commercial facial care products, and it was a total sigh of relief when I discovered HHN's facial care line. I have combination skin, and I've been struggling to find the product that would cleanse my face thoroughly without drying out my cheeks yet cleaning my oily T-zone. The Balancing Facial Wash does wonders to my skin! After a week of using it together with its toner, my face looks healthier and my blemishes have been reduced greatly. Awesome job, HHN!

I decided to try out this product because I was looking for a deep cleanser without any harsh ingredients that would make my skin condition worse. I'm so glad I did! This facial wash gives me that deeply cleansed feeling without the tightness that other overly drying (terrible thing to do for oily skin) products give. To be honest, I tend to veer away from facial washes with exfoliants built into it as I'm wary that it would agitate my pimples. In the case of this product, I have not noticed any irritation from the bamboo scrubs which assured me that it is gentle enough even for my skin. Just be sure to rub it lightly onto your skin! I do feel that it helped in controlling my breakout and help my pimples dry faster. The only reason I gave it a 4 rating is because it did not observe a noticeable difference in terms of how oily my skin is throughout the day.

Best facial wash ever! I've gone through several brands and types, but so far, this is the only one that have prevented breakouts, even without a medicinal ingredient. I use this after the Cleansing Oil, and my skin feels clean yet moisturized afterwards. I also bought the Acne Treatment, but so far have had no reason to use it, thanks to this combo. Thanks, HN!

I love this facial wash! At first I was hesitant to use it because I've had negative experiences switching products. During the first few days, I experienced some dryness and minor redness. I got nervous -- but I really wanted to stick to something natural this time. Luckily I continued to use it and began to see wonderful results...my skin is smoother and the pores are less visible. I still get one or two pimples during red days - but nothing really bothersome. Thanks Human Nature! My skin is definitely one less thing to worry about. :)

I have been using hhn products since 2009. I developed a breakout after 2 years using. So I stopped then my breakouts stopped then I started using it again and again I have a break out again now! :3, I use the balancing facial wash, balancing toner, day and night moisturizer plus the sunflower oil, so now I stopped using it again. [EDITOR'S NOTE: Hi Patricia! We're sorry to hear about your experience. Our Balancing Facial Wash is hypoallergenic and formulated for oily/combination skin, so it's unlikely to cause breakouts. However it's possible that you may be sensitive or allergic to one of its natural ingredients. We'd like to help you out and help you find the products that work for you. Perhaps our Nourishing Facial Wash might be more suitable for your skin type? Our Customer Service will be in touch with you very soon! Thank you!]

Love that it doesn't leave my face feeling dry after washing, unlike regular bath soaps. My skin's oily but it doesn't feel like all the moisture's taken out after washing my face with this. And the bamboo scrubs are surprisingly gentle. Smells so good too. I wish there's a body wash version of this.:)) So glad I bought the big bottle.:)

been using this for the past 2 months. okay sya kase organic at hindi naman ako nagkaron ng kakaibang breakouts. what i dont like is my skin still oily. naka two 50ml bottles na ko pero still oily. try ko next time yung pure strength facial wash. baka mas maging effective sakin. still love hnn thou :)

I read a lot of negative reviews so I decided to make my own review. I have sensitive skin too, the first time I used this product for a week I had breakouts/rashes too so I stopped. But after sometime I decided to use this again as I needed to scrub my face to properly cleanse and I like its smell and smooth effect after washing. Besides other scrubs make my pores noticeable. So what I am doing now is using this just once before going to sleep since I am pretty sure I acquired a lot of dirt out doors and apply moisturizer after. Scrub in general make the skin. For those who have sensitive skin like me, you should know that moisturizer is a must no matter what product you are using. [EDITOR'S NOTE: Thank you for your recommendation, Christelle! We're so glad our Balancing Facial Wash works so well for you now. And we agree - a good moisturizer is a must for a complete beauty routine :) Thanks!]

I recently bought this product and after 3 days of using this cleanser, i got two pimples and lots of tiny bumps on my face!! i'm very disappointed of the result, knowing that it's an organic product and i'm a fan/user of organic products and i rarely have pimples!! the reason why i wanted to try this it's bec it's cheaper. hope you can replace this product. i know you may say that having pimples have lots of factors, but it's really ironic to have pimples when using an organic product which you're claiming that it's supposedly "the good and pure natural stuff" here on earth. well, the only thing i like about this cleanser is the scent. [EDITOR'S NOTE: Hi Tiffany! We're sorry to hear about your experience. Our Balancing Facial Wash is formulated for oily/combination skin and is unlikely to cause breakouts.

Love this product! Oil control and very good for dry and acne prone skin. I love everything about it, so organic and natural :-)

I'm a bit on the fence with this one. I have very sensitive skin but I've also noticed that it can be oily at times and the skin on my face and neck have a higher degree of sensitivity than areas such as my back and shoulders, though still pretty sensitive. I figured this facial wash was a good match since I have sensitive and oily skin. I've been using it alongside its matching toner for a few weeks now and I've had a break out across my forehead as well as my hairline. I haven't been using any other products besides the Sunflower Oil and the Balancing facial wash and toner line. It's a pity since I really enjoy the citrus scent and the feel of the bamboo granules but this probably isn't the best match for my face. I'll be trying the Nourishing line for sensitive skin and see if this alleviates my breakout. This works wonders on my back and shoulders as well as other skin areas that get irritated though. Maybe you could develop a body wash from a similar formulation in a bigger bottle in the future. I've also read up on exfoliation beads in most soaps and lathers aren't biodegradable so if the beads in your exfoliating soap are of the same material a body wash similar to this facial wash would save a lot of water from being polluted with beads that kill marine life. [EDITOR'S NOTE: Hi Denise! Thanks for your feedback. While our Balancing Facial Wash is hypoallergenic and formulated for oily/combination skin, it's possible that your facial skin may be extra sensitive. Our Nourishing Facial Wash and Toner may be more suited to your skin, do let us know! We're glad to hear that our Balancing Facial Wash works so well on your back and shoulders, though. A body wash is a good suggestion and we can consider it. We use only biodegradable bamboo scrubs and loofah as exfoliating agents, so we thank you for patronizing our products in doing your part to save our environment :) If there's anything we can assist you with, please feel free to contact our Customer Service at customer.service@humanheartnature.com or call (02) 224-2223 :) Thank you!]

I think it's too early to say that I love this product. I just bought it last Wed and I can say that it did lessen my pimples in one day. Yes, 1 day! I used it that night and the morning after that together with the balancing toner and I can barely see my pimples on my forehead that were visible the day before. I'm amazed! Although, 2 days after my first use, I got 3 new pimples on other areas of my face. I'm not sure if it's the cleanser or the toner that seems to break me out so I'm still figuring it out. Nevertheless, I love the citrus smell of it and the bamboo bits that somewhat scrub my face that also helped removing some of my minor blemishes. It's not that foamy but it's not a big deal. This is my first product from HN and I'm looking forward to buy your other product soon. [EDITOR'S NOTE: Hi Alison! We're so glad you love our Balancing Facial Toner. It's possible that you skin may still be adjusting to its natural formulation, especially if you're switching from a chemical product. We recommend monitoring your usage for the next few weeks and let us know how it works for you :) We hope you try out our other products too! Thank you!]

Thisis one of my favorite products it is suitable to all skin type :)

I've found the perfect match for my skin! This product did amazing wonders to my face. Last 2002, I got burned and my arms suffered third degree burns while my face and back got first degree burns. Since then I only used Cetaphil and Oilatum in my face as it has become so sensitive to harsh soaps and cleansers. Last year, my sister and I encountered Human Nature products. I bought the Sunflower Beauty Oil and she bought the Hydrating Facial Wash (Moringa). The SBO was superb as I used it as an after-bath moisturizer. I tried the Hydrating Facial Wash but unfortunately my skin got irritated and had a breakout. Just last April, I tried using this facial wash and after several uses I noticed that my pores were minimized and my pimples dried up. This is really amazing! Thank you Human Nature for an excellent product :-)

No dryness feeling after washing unlike using ordinary soap. Feels smooth after wash.

ive tried expensive facial products and unfortunately it didnt work for me, ive tried this balancing facial wash and its work for me...dont have breakouts.. :-) thank u so much human nature...i wish u have a product to remove dark/red spots... maybe a cream... [EDITOR'S NOTE: Hi Josephine! You're very welcome! We're so thrilled that you love our Balancing Facial Wash. For dark spots, we recommend applying our Sunflower Beauty Oil to the affected area twice a day to help lighten dark or uneven skin: http://humanheartnature.com/buy/index.php/facial-lip-care/sunflower-beauty-oil.html For best results, we also highly recommend using a few drops of our Overnight Elixir in the evening: http://humanheartnature.com/buy/index.php/prestige-face-care/overnight-elixir.html Hope this helps you! Thank you! :) ]

im using it together with the balancing toner, its a GREAT PRODUCT!!

This works great on my combination skin, without making it feel dry and stiff! Read more about my review here: http://choosehumannature.blogspot.com/2014/03/balancing-facial-wash-review.html

Sorry but this product isn't for me. I really had high hopes for this because I have super oily skin but it didn't meet my expectations. It feels good on the first try but then after 3-4 uses I started breaking out. The scent is good though. I switched to Nourishing Facial wash and it suits me better. [EDITOR'S NOTE: Princess Salvia! Thank you for your feedback. We're sorry to hear about your experience. Our Natural Balancing Facial Wash is formulated for oily/combination skin and it's unlikely to cause breakouts.

If you have any inquiries, do feel free to contact customer.service@humanheartnature.com and we'll be happy to help you find the products that work for you :) Thanks again!]

I really love this balancing facial wash! After washing my face using it, my face feels clean and clear. It is really suitable for my face which is really oily. I have also acne marks which I noticed it is getting clearer until it disappears. I recommend to use also the balancing toner so that you will achieve a fresh face. P.S. It's better to use natural products to your face than using chemical products. Surely you will not regret using this product.

besides its organic, it doesnt harm face like other cleansers does

I tries a lot of acne soap and facial wash that claims to heal acne. I have tried almost all the commercialized facial wash and some soap. But all it did was dry my skin and make it peel so much that would me think twice of going out the house..... Then I met this amazing facial wash! Pros: It so gentle in my skin that there is no annoying excessive stinging. The scrubs makes me feel assured that the dirt in my face is being cleaned up. Love the smell. Make my skin stay soft. THERE'S NO PEELING :) Removed breakouts of BIG pimples Cons: Still get breakouts but at least it is small now and fewer. Skin still a little shiny after a while..... [EDITOR'S NOTE: Hi Lian! We're so thrilled you love our Balancing Facial Wash! It sounds like it's working great so far and we're glad you don't have to go back to harsh chemical products :) For best results, we recommend that you use this along with our Balancing Face Toner and moisturize well with our 100% Natural Day Moisturizer and 100% Natural Night Moisturizer to maintain a healthy moisture balance in your skin. You can also try using our miraculous Sunflower Beauty Oil or luxurious Overnight Elixir as a spot treatment on problem areas before going to bed :) Let us know how they work for you! Thank you!]

I love this facial wash. I have a small one in my bag all the time and I use it when I go on duty (which is more than 24 hours at a time). Even if I don't have way of taking a shower, I can wash my face and I feel refreshed. It smells awesome too. I didn't experience any breakouts, but I'm lucky to have not-so-sensitive skin. I also didn't notice any change in how oily my face gets but it's not any worse either.

I have a really oily face and was hoping to find a good facial wash to help with the oiliness, so I tried to use this and even bought the toner to complete the package. I was really excited to buy this, my very first product from HHN especially because of the good reviews and it's being 100% natural. I'm on my 3rd week now and i'm afraid this product had not met my expectations:(. My blemishes worsened and appeared all over my cheeks and forehead, and blackheads on my cheeks are more visible too:(. Also, I grew pimples on my lower cheeks and chin which i rarely get. I would love to try something else from HHN like the nourishing facial wash and toner because some of its reviews say they switched from balancing to that, but i'm hesitant to cus i might just waste money for a whole bottle of facial wash and toner again:(. I wouldnt discourage other people from trying this though cus i think my skin type and oiliness is really something else, so for the less severe skin types, go ahead and try. It's true that it really feels good and refreshing after washing:). [EDITOR'S NOTE: Hi Meg! We're sorry to hear about your experience. As you suggested, your skin might be more suited to the Nourishing Facial Wash and Toner. For now, we advise that you stop using our Balancing Facial Wash and Toner until your irritation subsides. Our Customer Service will get in touch with you immediately to look into your experience more and help you find the right amazing products that work for you :) Thank you!]

The Balancing Facial Wash was okay at first. However after using it for one week the breakouts started to show. I continued it for one month but the breakouts still persisted. I stopped and returned to my old facial wash and thus my acne subsided. It is disappointing. :( I just want to ask, is the Balancing facial wash dermatological tested? I cannot find the assurance anywhere. Thank you. [EDITOR'S NOTE: Hi Lis! Thank you for taking time to leave some feedback. Our Balancing Facial Wash was dermatologist-tested and passed as non-irritating and safe. It is specially formulated with natural elemi, an antibacterial agent, to help fight pimples and excessive oiliness, so it's not common for us encounter instances of breakouts. There are a number of possible factors that could have caused your breakouts. Did you switch from an anti-acne product? Were you using any other products together with our Balancing Facial Wash? We use only top-quality natural ingredients that are much less likely to cause irritations than chemical ingredients; however, we also understand that some skin types may be sensitive or allergic to certain ingredients. It's also possible you may need the Nourishing Facial instead which is for sensitive skin. We would like to get in touch with you directly to learn more about your experience. If you are unsatisfied with our product, we would be happy to offer you a free exchange or refund and help you find the products that work for your skin. Our Customer Service will be in touch with you soon :) Thank you!]

I had good impressions on the first week that i had used this, with the toner. But after a week, my skin, started breaking out, on my forehead, chin and cheeks! I was really frustrated with the result. I love your products, my baby uses your products but I don't think this works for me and I really feel so bad about writing this review but I think it is better if you know about this. [EDITOR'S NOTE: Hi Kristia! We're sorry to hear about your experience. Our Balancing Facial Wash and Toner are formulated for oily/combination skin and has had fantastic reviews for its compatibility. It's possible that your skin is adjusting to it, as it sometimes takes users a few weeks for their skin or hair to get used to natural formulations. In any case, our Customer Service will get in touch with you to learn more about your experience and help you find the right products for your skin :) We'll be in touch soon! Thank you!]

I have combination skin and really bad cystic acne. I've gone through maybe 4-5 high-end products hoping to find something that will at least reduce my skin problems, but they only ended up making my acne worse. A friend of mine recommended I try out natural products so I did my research and bought a small bottle of this product. When I first used this product, I was a bit put off by the overpowering citrus smell, but you eventually get used to it. After washing, my face feels very smooth and clean. I've been using this product for three weeks now, and I'm really happy to say that my acne has gotten better more quickly than before, and I haven't had any new breakouts. I will definitely be buying this product again.

This facial wash would probably only work for really oily and really thick skin. If you have sensitive skin, stay away! I have sensitive but oily skin and this was the wash recommended for me. From the first wash 'til the eighth (four days), my skin was sooooo dried out. And my perioral dermatitis got sooo much worse. I'm still scared to even look at the bottle. [EDITOR'S NOTE: Hi Mina! Thank you for your feedback. Our Balancing Facial Wash is indeed suitable for oily/combination skin. Perhaps your skin needs more time to adjust to it.You could try using it every other day before using it frequently, and pairing it with a good moisturizer like our 100% Natural Day Moisturizer. It's unlikely that our Balancing Facial Wash caused your dermatitis, given that it was already an underlying condition. However we want you to have the best experience with our products, which is why our Customer Service will get in touch with you to learn more about your experience and make up for it :) Thank you!]

I was very confident that I would fall in love with your facial wash just as I fell in love with your other products so I bought a 200ml bottle on the first try. My face was not really acne prone before but I started to have small pimples on my forehead when I used your nourishing facial wash (it has the best reviews so I decided to give it a try and because I was not really prone to pimples even though my face is oily at times). I thought that I needed a stronger facial wash since I have an oily/combination skin, so I switched to your balancing facial wash. My pimple problem got worse, and now I started to have pimples not only in my forehead but on my cheeks as well. I have been using it for a month now because I wanted to give it a chance, but it failed me over and over. As much as I would like to continue using your facial wash, I'm afraid I would have to go back to my chemical facial wash lest my pimple problem gets worse. Sayang, I really love your products pa naman (I'm a dealer by the way) and I'm using your products from head to toe. This one's an exception. [EDITOR'S NOTE: Hi Shiena! We're sorry to hear about your breakouts. Pimples can be caused by many factors, and seeing as you'd been experiencing them even with your previous facial wash, it is difficult to tell what may have caused your pimples. We would like to get in touch in you to learn more about your skin type and skin care regimen to help you find the right products for you. If you are unsatisfied with any of your products, we would be happy to offer you an exchange, refund, or credit for it. Our Customer Service will be in touch very soon :) Thank you!]

I love this balancing facial wash it makes my face soft, clean and hydrating. but with a sad face i need to change to another facial wash because there is a sodium benzoate ingredients a preservative chemicals that is well known harmful to body. I hope HHN will black list this harmful ingredients to their product. I will use this again if you will take away this Sodium Benzoate, Please..... I love this facial wash. [EDITOR'S NOTE: Hi Jun! Sodium Benzoate is used as a component of one of the Ecocert-certified natural preservative systems comprised of Gluconolactone (corn-derived) and Sodium Benzoate. It's included to stabilize the gluconolactone rather than to act as a preservative for the product, so it's present in very low concentrations in our products: only 0.1%. Many natural personal care brands also use Sodium Benzoate in low concentrations and it is approved for up to 0.5% in cosmetic products - so it poses absolutely no risk to your health. Please be assured that we subject all of our ingredients to a rigorous research and testing process to ensure that they are absolutely safe for you and the environment before we consider using them in our products, so you can definitely be sure that you're getting only the good :) We hope this helps! Thank you!]

I have a combination skin and my t-zone is so oily that I have to use oil blotting sheets and reapply powder every hour or two. I've used some brands that claim to be gentle on skin and keep pH levels balanced but none of them worked! I still had breakouts and oily skin but when I started using the Balancing line for almost a month now, my face has improved greatly. I even let my classmates touch my nose without retouching my makeup for hours and they were amazed! No trace of oil just perfectly balanced skin! Thanks HN!

Facial wash in the form of bar soaps made my face and hands very dry and badly damaged. Those products seemed to contain chemicals that are strong or too much for my skin which is oily and at the same time, sensitive. So I decided to give this product a try since I wanted to avoid harmful chemicals especially those that leave a stinging and drying sensation on my face and hand. Bottle Size (200mL) The size is neither too big nor too small. I prefer this over the smaller size of this product (50mL) which I find a bit pricey for that size. The bottle can last at least up to 2 months. With one gentle squeeze, it dispenses a sufficient amount of the product, just enough to clean my face, neck, and nape. At times, I am even left with some excess of the product after applying it on the said areas. Facial Wash The first time I used this product, the scent surprised me--it was exotic for me since most of the facial wash I used before were more fragrant. Nevertheless, the scent was good. The product is very gentle on my skin even when I leave it on my face for several minutes. It doesn't sting and burn my skin. Despite the sharp bamboo scrub, I'm amazed that my skin isn't punctured or damaged by it even when I massage the product gently or vigorously. My fingers glide on my skin when rinsing it off. No need to rub it very hard. The product leaves my skin supple, smooth, fresh and clean. It doesn't have any tight and dry feel afterwards. It does reduce the oil on my face. What I didn't like about the product is that the bamboo scrubs apparently, settle at the bottom. It had to be turned upside down to distribute the scrubs evenly in the facial wash. Results I've been using the product twice a day for a month and I have consumed almost half of the 200mL bottle. I had pimples on my cheeks and chin before I tried this product. Apparent changes would be the decrease in number, size and appearance of my pimples in these areas. The pimples especially those on my cheeks became more manageable--most of them faded away. Occasionally, some small pink bumps appear then after a few days they do not get worse and gradually disappear. I'm happy with this product. It's very gentle and in a month I notice some improvements on my complexion. It looked healthier and my pimples are more manageable. I would recommend this product.

The Balancing Facial Wash and Balancing Toner are a good match. I noticed my skin is less oily, and pimples heal faster. Together with a healthy diet (no fatty meat, less processed foods) , my acne got better. I love the natural smell of it, the texture and the consistency of the fluid. Just a little hint, for those with acne, I advise to be careful in "scrubbing" your face... better to do it VERY VERY gently because it might irritate your zits.. What I do is almost 'no rubbing' and just pat it and leave it on skin for like 1-2 minutes.

Product cleans skin well and has a very pleasant scent. Exfoliant particles may be a bit too rough and unevenly shape, but I don't really mind.

Loove the smell and the cool exfoliating feeling.

This product really works for me together with Balancing Face Toner. When I started using this product I recognize the changes right away so I used it every day. I noticed the changes on my face when the oiliness of my skin is more unnoticeable now. Here is my beauty regimen: 1. BALANCING FACIAL WASH 2. BALANCING FACE TONER 3. SUNFLOWER BEAUTY OIL (as my face moisturizer). I was surprised also when the dark spots on my face due to pregnancy are totally gone. And by the way I’m using it for about two months now and I’m really satisfied with the result.

i want to purchase this product but i cant avail any form of payments available here. im just 18 so i dont have yet atm cards or any credit card. and im not also a globe user to use gcash payments. and i dont know any seller of your products here in cabuyao laguna. how can you help me about my problem?? i really badllly want this product :( [EDITOR'S NOTE: Hi Renee! No worries! If you'd like to purchase online, you can select our bank deposit option and deposit your payment at your nearest BPI branch. We do have a branch in San Pablo, Laguna, or you could try ordering from one of our authorized dealers in Laguna: http://humanheartnature.com/buy/index.php/find-a-dealer-reg :)]

im just confused. i thought after using this product, the result would be way better than using celeteque. but after 2-3weeks of using this product, pimples keep on appearing. i know it takes some time for our skin to get used to natural skin care products, especially when we're switching from a chemical brand. so what i do, im alternating this product with celeteque before using it alone. same situation to my husband with your pure strength face wash. what to do? pls advise. ty [EDITOR'S NOTE: Hi Cj! Our Balancing Facial Wash is indeed formulated for oily/combination skin, but it might take a while for your skin to adjust to its natural formulation. We recommend that you don't alternate any longer - just switch completely. You should find then that your face will adjust in a few days at most. Currently, you are exposing your face to a lot of changes every day and it will be difficult for your skin to produce just the right amount of oil. It is trying to adjust every day at the moment. If your pimples get worse or you experience any irritation whatsoever, please let us know immediately so we can replace your product with one that suits you better :) Thank you!]

I love love love the products! ^-^ after 3 weeks of using it, i really felt that my face gets even better :) At first I thought My breakouts will never go away if I continue to use it. But alas, my face recovered from breakouts and it looks more glowing and smooth. It even helps my soon to be pimples to stay small and dry. I bought the Largest amount and I never regret I bought it the first time. I even had the moisturizer and the toner ^-^ [EDITOR'S NOTE: Hi Jessel! Thank you for the fantastic feedback! It may take some time for some users' skin to get used to natural products and we're so glad you've made the transition smoothly :)]

I have oily skin that's why I chose this variant. Indeed it controlled my sebum but i got breakouts. I tried to continue it for 2-3 weeks, to check if my skin will adjust but unfortunately more breakouts are coming out. Now I decided to stop and alas my breakouts stopped as well. I guess it doesn't work for me. Too bad, I love the scent and feel :( [EDITOR'S NOTE: Hi Carol! We're sorry to hear about your experience. Pimples may be caused by a number of factors, such as stress, diet, genes, or even changes in lifestyle. It's also possible that you may be too sensitive to one of the natural ingredients in our product. However because we want you to have the best experience with Human Nature, we would like to learn more about your experience with our product and replace it for free if you are not satisfied with it. Our Customer Service team will be in touch shortly to discuss this with you :)]

I have been using this facial wash for about six months now I think. The first three months was fine, my acne kind of calmed down (as stated in an earlier review). But three months more, I started getting really bad breakouts on my cheeks again so I decided to go back to my old facial wash and use this one as a sort of facial scrub every few days. [EDITOR'S NOTE: Hi Erica! We're sorry to hear about your experience. There are a lot of factors that may have contributed to your sudden breakout, including stress, environmental factors, or changes in dietary habits. However because we want you to have the best experience with Human Nature, we would like to learn more about your experience with our product and replace it for free if you are not satisfied with it. Our Customer Service team will be in touch shortly to discuss this with you :)]

I trust HHN very much. I almost use most of their products. But this one fails me. Yes, I no longer have shiny face but unfortunately I'm having break outs. Break outs that are worse than I had when I was pregnant :( help pls... [EDITOR'S NOTE: Hi Carol, pimples may be caused by a number of things, including changes in diet, hormone, and stress levels. If you believe our facial wash triggered the breakout, we'll be glad to give you a refund, replacement, or credit for your purchase. Our customer service team will be in touch.]

I love love love this product! I went with the Hydrating Creamy Wash at first because my skin dries very easily, but that made my face shiny after washing. My skin loved this product though from first use. My face felt moisturized, soft, supple, and there was no shine! I love how the tiny scrubs soothe the little rashes I sometimes get on my forehead and the skin around my nose. Now with just 2 weeks of use, the rashes are gone! Thank you HHN!

I've been a happy user of balancing facial wash for over a year but I recently noticed a change in the quality of the product. The bamboo scrubs all sit at the bottom of the bottle so I miss the exfoliating effect now whenever I wash my face. Hope we can bring it back to the old beloved formula! [EDITOR'S NOTE: Hi Melissa! The fine bamboo scrubs should be suspended but if the bottle is left for a long period of time, they may start to settle. You can try shaking up the bottle but if that doesn't solve it, we'll gladly replace your bottle for you :) ]

I am prone to having pimples and my friend told me to try HNN products because they are non-chemical. I decided to give it a try and bought this Balancing Facial Wash since I have visible pores and an oily nose most of the time. I've been using this for a week now and my face is starting to get worse. It's not my time of the month and yet I am having breakouts. :( I don't know if I should stop using this and try the Nourishing Facial Wash or simply switch back to my old papaya soap. Advice please. :( [EDITOR'S NOTE: Hi Carol-Ann! We're sorry to hear that you experienced break-outs. The Balancing Facial Wash was, indeed, formulated for oily/combination skin and is the wash that we would most recommend if you have oily skin. However, it's possible that since you've recently made the switch to a natural product, if you have sensitive skin, your skin may have been "shocked" by the sudden switch, causing a reaction. We would recommend using it twice a day and making sure that you rinse your face extremely well (with clean water) afterwards. If possible, wash with hot/warm water since washing with cold water will trap impurities under your skin, making your face more prone to pimples. Hot water opens the pores and greatly helps your cleansing routine :) You can then splash your face with cold water after rinsing to close the pores up again. We would appreciate it if you updated us with your experience after a few weeks, so we can see if it's working for you.]

Hi! I noticed that since I've used this product along with purifying facial toner and moisturizing night cream, my pimples appeared again! and it was ugly! My skin type is oily that's why I chose balancing facial wash. I want to know the cause of this please. Thanks! [EDITOR'S NOTE: Hi Mayan! We're sorry to hear about your experience. The Balancing Facial Wash is indeed formulated for oily skin, and if you've just made a recent switch to this from a chemical product, it may be that your skin is still initially adjusting to the facial wash and getting rid of toxins from your chemical wash. Our customer service representative will get in touch and help you out.]

First of all, I'd like to say how awesome you guys are at HHN! You guys are just so assertive and considerate. And I'm from Northern Mindanao but I got my package early morning on the second day after my order was shipped. Amazing! I actually first did a lot of major research about your products and this was the one I was most eager to try because of the number of positive feedbacks. Well, actually, I was so convinced of how effective your products are that I ordered the entire regimen from cleanser to beauty oil. ^^ Me and my sisters (and now even our mom) have fallen inlove with this cleanser, that two days from receiving our first bottle, we've already ordered the bigger bottle and more HHN products to go with it! Your products are just so amazing and effective and awesome and I haven't got enough words to describe how thankful I am for discovering your awesome company! So actually, this is more of a letter of gratitude than a legit review, sorry. God bless you HHN! ^_^

first time I've used this product.. it really was so great! you could really feel the bamboo scrubs/seeds on your face especially when you start massaging it all over your face! and after cleansing it with water you really can feel the difference from your other daily facial wash! swear! :>

I've been using this product for almost a week now but I have seen it is really good because it keep my skin fresh, renewed and revitalized. My family is using this product as well and I have endorsed this to my friends now and they also like it. Thanks HN.

I had the 50mL bottle for about three months now, and it's just halfway done even if I use it twice a day everyday. Which is kind of very cool. Paired with the balancing toner, my skin has gradually became better and has less number of freak breakouts now. Thumbs up!

I swear by this product. It cleans the face well and is not too harsh. I love it. This is the best facial wash that I have ever tried.

I just love using this product. Cleansing, relaxing and definitely worth buying. I highly recommend this product.

been using this for several months now & i must say it helped a lot in diminishing my zits! m just wondering if it's ok to use the bottle several times since i'm refilling the small bottle with the content of big bottles for travelling purposes. i know there's a health/safety issue in reusing plastic bottles, right? thanks in advance for the prompt feedback ^_^

When I read the positive reviews about HN, I started using its products, its been a month since i started using it but I was disappointed with the results. I have a very oily skin and prone to acne. When i started to use the balancing facial wash and toner (as well as the day and night cream), i had a very bad acne breakout (worst than before i started to try the product). In addition, my acne is bigger and started to leave marks. Kinda disappointed, but yeah I guess I will have to stop using this. [EDITOR’S NOTE: Hello, annann! We’re really sorry to hear about your experience. Our balancing facial wash is one of the most loved products of Human Nature and it really helped out a lot of customers improve their oily and pimple prone skin condition. It could be possible that it was your skin’s way of detoxification. Usually, when we switch from a chemical to a natural product, our skin would have a natural way of detoxification similar to when smokers cough a lot when they stop smoking. We’d also like to recommend our Pure Strength Facial Wash which is formulated for extremely oily skin. We also have lady customers who love it!  Our customer service team will get in touch to discuss this with you. :)]

I have a very oily skin but I'm not prone to acne, unless during the time of the month when aunt flow is coming. I've tried this together with the Balancing Toner and I can see the result gradually. My face became less oily specially after I wake up in the morning. However, I started to have an acne breakout. I don't know if it's my face's way of reacting to the all natural product or taking out all the toxins of my face. I'm just going to finish one bottle and I'll try the Nourishing facial and toner next time.

It is absolute happiness each time I look in the mirror and I see transformation everyday! I've stopped going to my dermatologist for acne treatment eversince I started using the balancing facial wash and toner in 2009 (formerly tomato and lemongrass for oily skin). What a relief! Never thought it's possible! Thank you Human Nature.

I have very oily skin and that's the reason why I tend to have pimples on my forehead and on my cheeks. I used this and have fallen in love with it. Check the full review here, Before and after pictures as well --> http://kimchibunny.wordpress.com/2012/10/06/hhn-balancing-facial-wash-review/

Sad to say i've had breakouts, even after using the product for weeks now, and it's been a while since i've had these type of pimples. :( maybe it's just not the product for me for i love hhn products, and they usually work very well (the mineral foundation is just super nice!). [EDITOR’S NOTE: Hi mariecookie! Thank very much for your feedback and we’re really sorry to hear about your experience. Our Balancing Facial Wash is one of our most loved products and we rarely hear of experiences like this. This product has even helped a lot of our customers with oily or combination skin type in making their skin clearer, smoother and pimple free. It could be possible that your skin does not fall under oily or combination type. You might like to try the Nourishing Facial Wash instead to see if that works better for you. We’ll gladly exchange it for you free of charge :) Our customer service team will be in touch. :)]

After years of using my old salicylic acid-laden facial wash, toner and moisturizer, i gradually switched over to the HN Balancing Facial Wash and Toner, as well as the Night Cream and Day Fluid. For several weeks, i had terrible breakouts, perhaps because my skin was still adjusting to life without harmful chemicals. After the adjustment period, my skin became much clearer, less oily, and with less noticeable pores. Even the dark spots and pimple scars have now faded away. I'm glad i stuck with HN. :-)

I have never used a product like this. I love the combination of bamboo scrubs and loofah; they clean the skin without 'ouch!' feeling. I dropped my long-time facial scrub for this. Never regretted it. Thanks, HNN!

I wish you could make a facial wash without the scrub in it. I wash my face twice or thrice a day, and would prefer using a scrub only once or twice a week. Is it possible for you to bring back the guava & aloe facial wash? It really worked for me because I have oily skin and I was sad that it was discontinued. [EDITOR’S NOTE: Hi Ana! Thank you very much for your feedback. The loofah and bamboo component of this product gently remove dirt and impurities; you just have to gently rub it on your face. We can assure you that this is safe for your daily use. :) But if you’re looking for a facial wash without scrubs, you might like to consider our recently released Nourishing Facial Wash. It’s getting a huge amount of positive feedback :)]

I tried this balancing facial wash, but this gave me a lot of breakouts, at first I didn't know that this product was the culprit until I tried using it again. It gave me lots of cystic acne. :( I wish I could find a better facial wash from human nature that won't give me breakouts. [EDITOR’S NOTE: Hi Alumina! Thank you for taking time to give a review for our product. We’re really sorry to hear about your experience. This product is specially formulated for those people with oily skin. It could be possible that your skin does not fall under this type since this is actually one of our most popular products and we rarely hear of experiences like this. But as with any other Human Nature product, if you are not completely satisfied, we’ll gladly replace or have it credited in your account. Our customer service team will be in touch. :)]

I've been using and endorsing this product and so far I only got positive feedbacks. My husband learned to love this product too!

I love wearing make up everyday so I decided to look for a facial wash that uses only natural ingredients. I searched for different products but after reading what Human Nature does and how they create their products, I bought my 1st Balancing Facial Wash in Beauty Bar. I actually found it kinda expensive but after using it for weeks, I thought it was really worth it! I got less oily face, it really cleans my face and I just love it!!! Thanks Human Nature! :)

A must-have for Pinays with oily skin (like me). Been using this for less than a week and I must say that it really minimized my face's oiliness. The bamboo and luffa extract exfoliates the face, wiping off dead skin and white/black heads. The fun part is, it will leave your face smooth, clean and fresh feeling after wash because of the orange oil and the "prized" elemi oil. Love my Pinay skin even more.

This has helped control the oiliness of my skin, I soooo love this! No more breakouts... Goes well with the balancing toner.

This product works well with my sensitive skin. I love the scent. It does not dry my skin. I never had pimple since I started using this facial wash.

I've been using this product for over a year (i think), and I can attest how the natural ingredients have been taking good care of my skin. I love the feel of the bamboo scrubs and loofah rubbing the oil and dirt away. My face feels fresher and cleaner after each use! This is definitely the best! :)

At first i was hesitant to use this because i'm really acne prone but I got really curious and tried using this anyway. I've been using this for weeks already and so far this is only the facial wash that worked for me. Prior to using this product i was using commercial brand papaya soap and it dried out my skin and i didn't like it even it helped with my acne. This helped fight acne but not totally eradicate the problem but it gave me that minty feeling after I wash my face and i love it! so refreshing!

It was such an amazing product! Before I was using a regular facial wash but my problem areas in my nose area such as blackheads and whiteheads are still there. Then I give this product a try using the smallest bottle and just after my first use I say to my self, whiteheads and blackheads are removed, it makes my oil free, supple, fresh and smooth. The fragrance of this product is very relaxing, reminds me of a spa. I will absolutely buy the biggest bottle of this one and I will highly recommend this product to my friends especially those with problems like mine! :) please continue to manufacture this product forever! I am a frugal type of person and was a fan of cruelty free and organic products... I would like to rate this product more than 5 stars!

I love this and the toner as well!! For a more in-depth review, please visit my blog. http://erikaaliceblog.blogspot.com/2012/03/balancing-facial-care-review-hhn.html

I've been using it for almost 3 months and everyone notice that there is something different about me.They really notice the glow on my skin. Actuallly I had breakouts during the first two days but still i continued to use it and so far I'm very happy for the good result.. everyones asking whats my secret haha. thanks human nature.. I hope it will have a branch at San Ildefonso Bulacan.Anyway thanks for my friend Kayen, She's the one who recommend this product..I also tried Hydrating facial wash and its really good too.

I don't really go out of my way to review skin care products but this one of those things that I feel so strongly about. I really love this facial wash. It calms down my breakouts although I had a few pimples on the first week I used this. It's refreshing. That orange scent really does it for me every single time. It's economical. I've tried fancy schmancy cleansers that broke my wallet. This cleanser does the job (and more) at a fraction of the price. It's chemical-free. Always a good thing. However, please consider making this without the bamboo scrubs. There are times when all we need is a gentle cleanse and unfortunately, the scrubs can be a bit harsh. Yes, even on oily skin. I'm not above begging you for this. Please, please.

Bought this product at landmark. The product is actually good at first especially the beads but I started breaking out. I'm not sure if it's because it's that time of the month or the wash or a combination of both, I'll observe some more days before I'll give up using this product. [Editor's Note: Hi, Alyanna. We're so sorry to hear about your experience. All our products are 100% harmful chemical-free, so it’s likely that it’s not our facial wash which is to blame. But our customer service team will contact you to gather more details just to be sure :)]

I am a proud HHN dealer and i superly love your products! However, i got breakouts when i used this product :( despite of this, i still want to try your balancing toner but im afraid that i'll get pimples again. I've tried your moringa line but i love the feel of this product except for the breakouts which are centered only on my forehead. Pls advise. Thanks and more power!! [Editor’s Note: Thank you for reviewing this product, Yhey! This product is suitable to people with normal or oily skin. It could be that your skin does not fall under this type. We recommend that you use the one that is suitable for your particular skin type. You may want to try our NEW 100% Natural Purifying Facial Scrub as it has the same feel as this one and it is suitable for all skin types. You may use it two to three times a week and it will surely make your skin glow! As with all our products, if you’re not completely happy, please feel free to return it for a full credit. :)]

I recently visited Philippines and my aunt noticed that my skin had gotten really bad with acne, I've had it for years and I was really reluctant to use a new product. It has almost been a week since I've used it and I don't have a billion breakouts anymore! Believe me, I've been loyal to my expensive facial washes but I didn't care anymore because this product actually worked! Luckily, my aunt gave me two bottles but I live in Canada and I don't know how I'm going to get HN products from here. I'm just so surprised this product works but I'll really have to salvage it carefully or else I'll finish it all. To anybody who was as reluctant as me, don't be! Try something new because you never know the outcome of it!

My fiance is using this product for quite awhile now and it is really effective on his face (he has oily face). Since I noticed that it is good, I ordered one for myself. Unfortunately, 1-2days after I used it, I got breakouts! I thought it was just normal since I shifted from chemical-laden product to a natural one but I was wrong, every time I use this facial wash, new pimple will come out to my face and it is not good so I had to stop it. Now I have 4 big pimples on my face and a lot of pimple marks on my forehead. I hate it. :( [Editor’s note: Thank you for reviewing this product, Regina. We are sorry to hear about your experience. Your skin may still be adjusting to our product, since you mentioned that you shifted from a chemical-laden product and it can take up to 10 days for skin to adjust. But it could also be that your skin type is not really oily. If not, you may be better off with the Hydrating Facial Wash. As with all products, it’s highly recommended to get the one that’s right for your particular skin. We will happily replace this for you free of charge with the Hydrating Facial Wash so you can give that a try. Our customer service team will get in touch with you.]

I used this 3-4 times a week interchangeably with the aloe & guava facial wash. Luckily after just a week of trying no more oily T-zone for me! I've tried a lot of products but I got best results with this one and no irritation. I'm also using the balancing toner and my skin is loving the cooling effect that comes with it. I'm now on my third week of using this product and I haven't had any pimple since then.

I read some reviews about this product now and some said they get breakouts when using HHN Balancing Toner... I also get a pimple (as in one only) and sometimes i get red spots in any part of my face everytime i try a new product. But it only lasts a day or two. After that, I get good results. Could it be that it's just my skin's first reaction to it but then gets used to it after the first contact? Personally I love this product, actually all of HHN's products! Pro-Filipino! [EDITOR'S NOTE: Hello Conchita! Thank you for your feedback! Each of us reacts differently to certain products! Initial breakouts may be normal when trying out a new regimen specially when you're switching from a chemical-laden product to a natural one. We just have to be patient to see the results after a few days or weeks of use. :) ]

This product works for me very well. I love the feel when I rub this on my face. And my face looks and feels clean after using it.

I was skeptical about the "leafy thingys" on this item, but then one use and i was sold! i love the scent, the subtle minty feel and the fact that there's loofah/bamboo to help get rid of the dead skin cells.0

I am allergic to a lot of Facial wash products available in the market. Only Cetaphil works for me. I was actually hesitant to try this coz it had bamboo scrubs. After days of thinking, I finally tried it and surprisingly, I didn't get pimples! Been using it for 2 weeks now and so far, I am satisfied with the product. :-)

I have an oily-acne prone skin, so I use to buy those expensive facial wash and toners, and go to the skin salons for a regular facial and treatment. So far only one of those expensive products worked for me which is the one with tea tree, not until I found this. I love how my face feels after washing and I rarely see blemishes and acne on my face. I don't even anymore have to spend too much for the facial treatments. I just hope that you could formulate it with tea tree...please... ;) [EDITORS NOTE: Thank you very much for your feedback. We are happy that you love our products. :) We shall keep in mind your suggestion in coming up with products with tea tree as an active ingredient. :) ]

I have never used any facial cleanser for over a year now and only use plain water for cleansing my face followed by a facial toner. I've tried this product (2 weeks now) and I have got 3 large pimples now. I'm using this together with the balancing toner as well. Not satisfied with this at this point. I'll probably try another one... :( [EDITOR's NOTE - sorry to hear about your experience Cindy! Although our Balancing Facial Wash has been clinically tested, there is always a possibility that a few people may not get on with it. But if it took two weeks for the pimples to appear, it's almost certainly not the Facial Wash which is to blame. If you're allergic to something, you would normally get a reaction in the first day or two. But as with all our products, if not satisfied, we will happily refund or replace it with something else though :) We'll be in touch to offer you a replacement.]

nicks oil without stripping oil keeps my face mattified love the bamboo shred scrubby things great mild minty scent

Been using this for more than 6 months now--was initially skeptical at first because I have very difficult skin. Oily and prone to breakouts but also very sensitive and reacts quickly to hormone changes. I really really like this formulation, it suits my skin very well. The gentle scrubs are just right for my skin type. Prior to using this, I was using an expensive dermatologist-prescribed brand, which was the only facial wash that worked on my skin--until this one.

I love the texture of the scrubs on my face as it wash away daily dirt and oil. My skin looks fresher and cleaner after every use of the wash. This is for keeps. ^_^

please see my detailed review here: http://barprov.blogspot.com/2011/05/human-natures-orange-and-elemi-facial.html

I bought this product coz I have oily skin.. Now, I'm shine-free and I'm loving it. The scent and texture is nice.. But now, I have 2 pimples, I'll observe some more days before i'll give up using this product.. I hope I can try the tomato lemongrass but my dealer said it's phased out... But still love Human Nature for these organic products.. [EDITOR'S NOTE: Hi Jenny! Thank you for your feedback. We're sorry to hear that you had a few pimples using the Balancing Facial Wash. As with many other personal care products, some people can still get adverse reactions even with the most natural ingredients. Yes, please do observe for some more days and please let us know soon so we can investigate. You may however return the product to us and we'll be more than happy to give you a refund. :) ]

This product gave me pimples. I had to stop using it because it just started growing around my cheeks and forehead. :( [EDITOR'S NOTE - sorry to hear about your experience Enna! Even though this has been clinically tested, there is always a small risk that a few people may not get on well with it. But as with all Human Nature products, we will be happy to provide a refund or exchange for something else.]

Just after a week of using this product, my face becomes smoother. It gets rid of the all the grime and oil but it doesn't dry out the skin.. And I love the tingling coolness it leaves on my skin after every use. Great product!

Love this product! I dropped by sesou to restock on another HN product when I saw these! And because I also wanted to buy a new facial wash, having run out of my usual commercial facial wash (which was the only other toiletry product I don't buy na at the supermarket, since switching to HN), I decided to give it a try. Love the smell, the way my face feels smooth with just the right amount of tightness, after every wash. Keep on making new products like these!!!

I had pimples after using this product for a week. Thinking that it was just my skin's initial reaction, I still use this with the balancing facial toner. I've been using this product for a month now and there's no improvement yet on my skin. A friend of mine introduced this to replace the tomato and lemongrass facial wash (which I love) that Ive been using. I can say that the tomato wash suits my skin better.

I love everything about this product- the smell, the beads which can be used on a daily basis, the way it leaves my skin super clean, refreshed, soft and soft. However, I only use this product alternately with Tomato and Lemongrass which I also find equally good when it comes to making my skin soft and supple. Is it just okay to use different kind of products on my face for as long as it's organic?

I love this product! But the downside here is the beads. I just don't want to scrub my face with beads 2 times a day = 14 times a week. It would just irritate the face if you keep scrubbing it. Hope you would also produce this facial wash without beads.

love this product... smells very good, gentle on my face, i even recommended it to a friend who has a very sensitive skin.. so far, so good. I have also discovered another use for this product. During bath, after all the body soaping and rinsing, i use small amount of this product as "armpit scrub". Since it has an antibacterial ingredient, i don't use deodorant anymore.. try it!!!

I used this twice already and I think it's great. It left my oily skin feeling clean and smooth. What I don't like about it is the beads/exfoliators. Don't get me wrong, they're small and mild for everyday use, I'm just not a big fan of them. I wish HHN will make a facial wash for oily skin that doesn't have any beads in it.

fell in love with it after the first use... your products just keep getting better! i love how it gives you a cool and fresh feeling after washing your face... the bamboo beads and luffa are just so amazing.. gets rid of the dirt real good... by the way.. BB creams are becoming really popular..can HHN make one of its own too? =) Editor's Note: Hello Monica! Thank you for your feedback. We've been getting a lot of requests to formulate a BB Cream. We'll try our best to make an all natural alternative BB Cream this year.

I love how smooth my skin feels after using this product, and I love even more how it stays that way HOURS later! I never felt that with any other facial wash (and believe me, I've tried a lot.) Maybe because of the surfactant used, it doesn't lather as much as I'm used to. Maybe this part of the formulation needs tweaking... just a suggestion. :)

So far so good. I've recently decided to go organic for 2011 and started looking around for good organic alternatives for my usual beauty regimen (without sacrificing quality, of course). I bought this wash to replace my usual drugstore brand to clean my face from the day's accumulation of dirt (plus I have oily spots on my T-zone and chin). I've only been using this for less than a week, and have not tested it on a full day outside, so I cannot say yet if the oiliness has ceased, but so far after using it at I have yet woken up to an oily face. So far no breakouts also, so that's a plus. I am also loving the wonderful packaging with gold accents and (with child-like glee) love swirling the bottle around to see the green bits dancing about. Heheh. All in all a good product.

What I like: minty smell; bamboo scrubs which are gentle enough for everyday use; acne-fighting properties of elemi oil. What I was wondering about: Why not call it Pili Nut Oil instead of Elemi, at least for the local market, because more people in the Philippines know what a Pili is, rather than Elemi? (More people here will know that Pili is endemic to the country and is hard to find elsewhere in the world.) What I'd like to request: 100ml bottles? and, if possible, a stronger formulation? my skin is very oily, and this helps, but the effects don't last for the whole day.
