A little amount of the product can cover up the entire face. I love how it gently exfoliates my face with the tiny beads melting. It leaves my skin feeling fresh and clean.

The cleanser foams well and removed the dirt off my face thoroughly. The scent was minimal which I didn’t mind considering I do not prefer scented facial products. The cleanser made my skin feel soft and clean after. Will buy again.

Since my skin in acting up lately--lots of dry patches on my face, I have been looking for a deep clean cleanser that has to be gentle. Shiseido Ibuki Purifying Cleanser is just that and more. What I like most about the product is that you need so little to get it into a rich lather. After the wash, your skin feels squeaky clean without feeling stripped off of the skin's needed moisture. The gentle beads help remove old skin cells and gently buffs away my dry patches. My skin has improved after a week of using the product. To me, it seems that my skin has found its balance through Shiseido's Ibuki Purifying cleanser.

The cleanser smells really good, and a little goes a long way in making a rich lather. The tiny scrubbing particles didn't feel that many at all, so i do wonder if they were just there for texture. I did not like that the cleanser made my face feel too "squeaky clean" after rinsing everything off, so much that i felt i HAD to apply moisturizer after (whereas i use my moisturizer because i THINK i need to, not because my skin is actually telling me i NEED to).

That said, i noticed my skin does look clean and clear after using the product several times. I might not be totally happy how it feels right after cleansing, but the results speak for itself. Sounds like an expensive investment for a cleanser, but considering how little you need for a rich lather, the full-sized item is likely to last a long, long, time. This is a worthy buy.

You only need a pea-size amount of this cleanser to come up with a creamy lather. I also love the milky scent, it feels like you're applying real milk onto your face. However, it doesn't exfoliate as much as I wanted to, and it takes a lot of time to wash the lather off.

I like the texture of this cleanser. The microbeads are enough for gentle exfoliation. My skin feels soft after washing.

Shiseido Ibuki Purifying Cleanser was one of the best cleanser I have ever used. It cleanses the oil dirt on my skin and no dry feeling which is my main concern when trying a purifying cleanser. I will definitely buy one after my samples. A bit expensive but it's worth it.

I love that my skin feels smooth and NOT dry after every wash. My mom also uses Shiseido Cleanser and she said she likes it better than Mary Kay.

It has microbeads that helps in cleansing the face. A bit foamy so will only need a pea size for cleansing, depending on preference. The smell is quite nice...just right and not too overpowering.

This cleanser is a-m-a-z-i-n-g!!! My face feels so fresh and clean. I also love how it gently exfoliates my skin. The subtle smell is just right. You just need a small amount for your entire face. Can't wait to try other Ibuki products. :)

In spite of the high price, I really think it's the best cleanser/exfoliator I've used so far. The smell of course is very Shiseido since most of their products smell like so. If you're very sensitive to this, it might require getting used to. The best thing about the Shiseido Ibuki Purifying Cleanser is you only need a small amount, just a pea-size, to clean your whole face. It lathers up very rich indeed! So the high price is worth it because a whole tube can last a long. It is recommended to use this sporadically but I really would like to use it everyday if I can because it cleanses my face deep down and I can feel it "purify" my skin. After washing my face is squeaky clean and when used with the Shiseido softener (toner), it is perfect! I will most definitely buy it when my sample runs out.
