If oily skin is your main concern, know that this will get skin squeaky clean.  It feels very gentle.  It takes a while to lather.  It says it can be used as shaving cream, and the best way to do that is to use wet hands and rub them together with a good squirt of this for 20-30 seconds.  If you rub your hands quickly, you will get a foam, or you can just shave with the gel.
