Face Wash Part Deux - Peter Thomas Roth: Beta Hydroxy Acid 2% Acne Wash

I’d run out of every last drop of my Shiseido: The Skincare [gentle cleansing foam] like one runs out of water in a desert.
Now what to do? What to do…….borrow my boyfriend’s face wash of course!
Just so happened at the time I’d begun my skin care kick, I got my boyfriend into it too. With a Sephora online coupon for 30% off in one hand and my cellphone in the other (to call my cosmetologist friend for her expertise), I was on a mission to find my boyfriend with the oily, prone to breakouts, sensitive skin a good, solid face wash. With a couple clicks, we’d decided on: Peter Thomas Roth: Beta Hydroxy Acid 2% Acne Wash
Peter Thomas Roth: Beta Hydroxy Acid 2% Acne Wash
Seeing as I borrowed the face wash from my boyfriend (and that he was really excited I was blogging and wanted to give his input), wetalkshop.com blog readers everywhere are going to get a 2-for-1 review: my perspective and my boyfriend’s. WOOT!
MY PERSPECTIVE:
I really liked this face wash. It was uncomplicated and very simple and got most of my make-up off. It was by no means a gentle foaming cleanser like that of a former review. 
Then again, it was a gel. It left my face feeling very clean and refreshed. I didn’t get that bit of post-cleansing, moisturized oomph that I got from the Shiseido face cleanser. Overall, I would use it again if I ran out of my face wash and had it on hand. I can admit this much. It was very economical in working as a unisex cleanser.
MY BOYFRIEND’S PERSPECTIVE:
I enjoyed the Peter Thomas Roth face wash. At first it gave me a greasy feel to my face. This was might be caused by the fact that I never used face soap before. I only used hand soap and body soap before I met my loving girlfriend. After I got use to the greasy feel that everyone feels with normal grown up face soap, I started to feel and see a difference. I know that my skin felt smoother and seemed to become more clear. Whoever Peter or Thomas or Roth are, I thank you.
WE SAY:
Git it!: $35, at www.peterthomasroth.com or at many fine online retailers here. On behalf of my boyfriend, Peter Thomas Roth really is just one man.
…Stay tuned for Part III…

May 15th, 2007 at 8:22 pm[…] Rarely do we write about things we aren’t happy with, but here’s a product that I recently purchased that just didn’t live up to my expectations: Neutrogena’s On-the-Spot Acne Treatment. I paid about $6; maybe a buck more, maybe a buck less, but should have opted for one of the other acne treatments. Shopgirl_trang’s recent posts about facial soaps inspired me to be better to my skin and to seek out remedies for what ails me. […]

If you ever want to try a regimen less expensive, go with 2.5% benzoyl peroxide - it won’t sting your face, but it will stain your pillow cases, so don’t wear it at night. I use a cream along with a “cleaner clean” face wash by Basis, and although I break out from time to time, my face stays relatively clear.

Ah yes, but I’ll break out into red blotchiness. Alas, my face is allergic to “benzoyl peroxide.” Thank you for the suggestion though!

I’d like to know if this product reduces or at least gives you the illusion of smaller pores - cuz my pores are ginormous and they need to be tightened up some!
