I had very nice results with this foaming gel. It did a good job of removing the excess oil from my t-zone, but did not leave me with a feeling of tightness all over my face. It gave me a fresh feeling and my foundation went on nicely after washing. I still have some problem areas, and I feel that this brand calmed it down a bit. I usually prefer facial scrubs with a grainy texture, but I sense that this was just as effective. I'd definitely recommend giving Bioderma a try.
