Guide Review - Moore Unique's Shavers Wash

I have tried many different types of cleansers. I have probably bought every cleanser you can think of from Target, CVS, Sephora and high-end salons. I have used everything from Clearasil to Exuvience. I have tried salicylic acid and AHA's and BHA's. Blah, blah, blah, right?!

Bottom line is that I really like the Shavers Wash. Although it has a slight medicinal smell, it works great. It has antibacterial properties, which is great because every time you shave, you are creating microscopic cuts in your skin. If bacteria enters those cuts, you will get red bumps and/or ingrown hair. The Shavers Wash by Moore Unique helps to kill the bacteria and exfoliate your skin.

When the word exfoliate comes up, most people think of rough, grainy and sometimes harsh substances that remove dead skin cells. If you are not careful, you can actually damage the skin. The difference in Shavers wash is that it uses salicylic acid (which aspirin also contains) to remove dead skin cells. The acids act like little pacmen and eat the dead cells away and you won't feel like you're scrubbing with sand.

Your skin will feel soft and clean. I did feel tightness but my skin was not dry. I noticed that my make-up seemed to glide on better when I used this product. I had to use less moisturizer and I never had flaky skin. My complexion seemed to change. It was more clear and even in color and texture. This is definitely a product worth trying.
