| sheann26's Full Review: Noxzema Original Face Wash |
Noxzema has been around for as long as I can remember. I started using it in middle school. In fact, it was the first facial product that I ever tried. To this day, I have always trusted it to be one of the best. I have tried many products, but few come close in comparison.
It has always been a great product for me to use, because I rarely have skin problems. I tend to lean towards having oily skin, but I would consider my skin to be more combination. In high school I had a near perfect complexion, so Noxzema was about the strongest thing I ever needed.
I still don't have many problems, besides an occasional blemish here and there. I had gotten away from Noxzema for a while. To tell you the truth I really don't know why. I guess I am one who likes to try all the "new" products that come out, but always seem to go right back to tradition. This is the case where Noxzema is concerned. I recently went out and bought a jar of Noxzema. It still has the same old effect and smell that it always did.
I love to use this in the morning especially. It really seems to get me going. It has such a wonderful strong smell that wakes up the senses. It is a mixture of menthol and eucalyptus and is great! Besides, smelling great it really cleanse your skin. I have tried other products that don't get all the dirt and makeup off, but not Noxzema. It gets every last trace of dirt and makeup and even helps to deep clean.
It is very simple to use. It can be applied to your face wet or dry, which I like, because many products call for your face to be wet. I remember trying one product and my face was not wet enough; it really made my face red and blotchy. That is not good if you are trying to get ready to go somewhere. I have never had this problem with Noxzema.
Another advantage is that it can be used by young and old. Like I said I started using it early in middle school and have continued using it to this day. It is not really designed for any certain age group. It is hard to find a product that meets that same criteria. Some can really mess up a younger person's face, because they are too strong.
Also, Noxzema can be used for something other than a face wash. That is as a sunburn relief. I had almost forgotten about that. I used to get sunburned pretty bad, but I could always trust Noxzema to take care of it. You just apply it directly to your sunburn and it immediately starts cooling your skin off. It is like instant relief, which I always needed. It also helps to keep your skin moist, so you don't peel so bad. It helps your skin retain moisture and keeps the skin cooler; what more could you ask for?
I definitely recommend this great product to anybody and everybody. No matter your age or skin type. Oh, that is another advantage that I almost forgot. Whether, you have oily or dry, you can use it. I use it all over my face and I do have parts that get dry. It does not matter if my skin is oily or dry I always have the same results. You can not say that for many other products. So, next time you need a good facial cleanser that is inexpensive and works great; try Noxzema. I don't think you will be sorry!
