This is one of the best face wash I have ever used. I am using it two times every day & within 1 week my skin tone looks a bit little lighter. The smell of the face wash is very good (Typical Nivea smell). Up to 8 Hrs it works perfect but mayn't for 12 hrs.

2. Skin gets little lighter after a week or so
3. Cleans the face fresh and clean

1. Controls oil up to only 7-8 hrs which is not to its claim.
2. May be stripping oils on your face sometimes.
3. Not suitable for the people who have dry skin.

RATING: 4.5/5

WHETHER I WOULD REPURCHASE IT: Definitely yes
