Because it's called "Cleansing Soap", I thought this stuff was body wash at first. Actually, it's facial cleanser with seaweed extract, which gives it a minty green color. It smells pleasant, however, and the texture feels a little like mayonnaise, though it doesn't leave you feeling greasy or sticky.  A little dab goes a long way and after I rinsed it off, I felt clean and refreshed. I've tried other Mario Badescu products and this did not disappoint.
