Trader Joe's version
First off, I have only used Trader Joe's Spa Face Wash with Tea Tree Oil, which has identical ingredients and formulation as the Desert Essence TC Face Wash. If you have oily skin, this is a fairly gentle face wash since it has so many carrier oils in it. If you have dry skin, be aware that tea tree oil reduces your oil production and can be incredibly drying. Tea tree oil also has antibacterial p...read moreroperties that combat acne. While I had clear skin through my teenage years, I've come to battle adult acne since I moved to the South. Tea tree oil is the only thing that has gotten it under control. If you are also battling stubborn acne and haven't tried tea tree oil, I cannot recommend it enough.This review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 6 of 8 people said helpful

Great for oily skin! NOT for dry skin!
It makes me sad to see all of the bad reviews of this face wash written by people who have dry skin. That's like complaining that a shampoo made for curly hair doesn't help with your stick straight hair. Anyways, I use this in the humid summer and after sweaty work-outs. It is too drying for me to use in the winter, but I find that I can't use just one face wash year round.

I also pair this with the Desert Essence tea tree oil stick for on the spot zit blasting. If you have dry or combo skin I'd recommend something else. For dry skin I like Body Shops Vitamin E Cream Cleanser and for combo Origins makes a fabulous frothy face wash. I rotate between the three depending on how my skin is feeling and have had great results!This review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 3 of 5 people said helpful

WAY too harsh
I have combination skin and found this cleanser way too drying for my face. It made my face sting and lift it dry and tight. I also thought the scent was too strong for a face product. I ended up using the rest of the bottle as a body wash. Not a good purchase.This review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 2 of 5 people said helpful
