I already was using the oil version of this face wash and got this sample. They work so well together! You don’t need a lot for a good clean lather. My face feels nice and moisturized after. I received this product for free from Origins for testing and review purposes.

The perfect face wash
This is my all time favorite face wash. The texture and smell are fantastic. It cleanses without stripping away moisture. Leaves your face feeling clean and refreshed. This is a must in my daily routine.

Definitely a repeat purchase
I've been using the Origins Checks and Balances Gentle Foaming Face Wash, and it's been such a good match for my combination skin. What I love most is that it's plant-derived, so it feels clean and refreshing without being harsh. It contains glycerin, which keeps my skin soft and hydrated instead of that tight, dry feeling after washing. Even though it's super gentle, it does an amazing job at removing makeup and impurities effortlessly—my skin feels fresh, balanced, and actually clean. Since I'm someone who prefers double cleansing, I really appreciate that this face wash doesn't strip away my skin's natural moistureI received this product for free from Origins for testing and review purposes.

Gentle for combination skin
I recently received this cleanser. I have used it morning and night before my daily moisturizer. It is a nice texture with no strong odor. The cleanser has made my face appear glowy and soft, and I need only a little bit at a time. I was weary of the price at first, but the bottle lasted longer than expected. It definitely feels natural and healthy on my skin.

Good face wash!
I really loved the feeling of the face wash. I used it at night when taking off my makeup and going to bed. I have combination skin and the only downside was a little drying in my already dry skin areas. I put on face cream afterwards so not a big deal. I do like the smell of it too.

Best selling cleanser
Origins best selling foamy cleanser. This cleanser soaps up and gets foamy easily , and my face feels clean and smooth after. The mint infused formula provides a gentle tingle . I did not notice a heavy scent which is nice . Suitable for my skin , gentle enough for all skin types, yet strong enough to remove oil and dirt. And new look using environmently conscious packaging."I received this product for free from Origins for testing and review purposes."

Absolutely my favorite face wash
I’ve been loyal to this face wash for years, always coming back to it when the latest gimmick or trend doesn’t work for me. It’s an effective, gentle cleanser that doesn’t strip my skin and makes my face feel fresh and clean, never tight and uncomfortable. I don’t know what magic is in it, but through every phase of my life (and the unfortunate realities of having combination skin) it’s just WORKED.

Favorite face cleanser!
I love this face cleanser! You only need a small amount so it lasts much longer than other face cleanser. I love the smell and feel of my face after using it!

Size matters
I prefer the older shaped bottles vs these tall skinny bottles you get now. Also, what happened to the day you could take your empties and trade for a new bottle. Those days are long gone. So disappointing.

Lasts forever!
Bought this on a whim and I was peasantly surprised. A really small amount goes a very long way, and I love how thorough a clean you get from this stuff. However, I will note that it can be drying. My skin tends toward dryness, so I definitely follow up with a good moisturizing routine. But my skin seems to like it.

My fav cleanser
This is my favorite face wash ive ever tried— and ive tried a lot. My skin actually feels clean and refreshed, and has helped with acne. Smells good, a little goes far, easy to get out of bottle (not sure about when it gets low!).

Being allergic to benzoyl peroxide and finding an effective face wash for acne prone skin is challenging. Until I found this one. My fiancé bought the trail size for a Christmas gift and I invested in the bigger bottle because my skin has never been clearer! I stayed with cerave and thought that was the best I’d ever get. I cannot stress to you how happy I am with this product. Smells amazing, leaves my skin feeling clean and tight. 10/10 recommend! Especially for sensitive skin!

good face wash, mixed on Origins business
I really like the face wash but feel mixed on Origins. They offered a free rose quartz roller with a certain purchase amount and so I bought extra to get to that amount, and then Origins sent me a random small scrub brush instead, even though it said "rose quartz roller" on the packing slip. I inquired with their customer service about the roller not being included and they told me they'd send one right out...and I got another tiny scrub brush.
