Suki Exfoliate Foaming Cleanser

Okay, this one might be my favorite thing I've ever sampled from Birchbox (and I've been a subscriber for over a year now, so that's a lot of products). To date, it's the only sample I've actually bought the full-size version of. Now, I haven't actually used it since I bought it because I currently have 4 cleansers I'm trying to finish up, but that's not the point. The point is, this is my absolute favorite cleanser and were it a little bit cheaper, I wouldn't have 4 inferior cleansers to get rid of. It's organic, which I love, and gentle enough to use more often than a traditional exfoliator. When you wet it and rub your hands together a little bit, it starts to foam, and something about the foaming and the exfoliating together made it almost a little bit fizzy. It sounds weird, I know, but it left my face feeling so clean and refreshed. I cannot stress how much I love this cleanser. And of course now that I'm thinking about it, I'm going to have to start using it again. Sorry, 4 other cleansers I just can't seem to get rid of.

Anyway, on to the reason we're here. The scent is described as "lemongrass and chamomile," but the lemongrass is the real star. As it turns out, I love me a good, strong lemon-y scent. I love it in my face wash, my lotion, my cleaning products... I just love lemon. It just smells clean, which is great for a cleanser. This one is strong but not overpowering, so you get a nice jolt of citrus-y goodness while you're washing your face, but it doesn't really linger. The scent is actually what first got my attention, but the actual product definitely lives up. Can you be in love with a face wash? 'Cause I think I am...
