I have not written a review in such a long time. Forgive me if I am out of practice. I thought I would start out with something simple to get me back into the routine, and what could be better than a review about Noxzema Skin Cream? I had used this product when I first came to the USA in 1995. I loved the way it left a cool tingle on my face after rinsing it off. For some reason I stopped using it and got hooked on cleansing cloths, but they did not give me that tingle I was longing to feel.
I was in the drugstore the other day, and I had just run out of my usual cleansing cloths. Noxzema was on sale, and I again remembered how great my skin felt after using it. I bought the big jar of the original formula and went home. I could hardly wait to feel the tingle again!
The secret for me is to apply it to a dry face that has not been moistened with water, and to use your fingertips to work it in a circular motion all over your face and neck. The cool, clean smell of the cream and the wonderful tingle on the skin lets you know all that dirt and oil is being dissolved away. Then I use a warm washcloth to rinse off the cream and exfoliate my skin. One final splash on my face with warm water, and the cleansing is done. My skin is left feeling soft, smooth, and completely clean. I usually do follow with a mild toner such as the one put out by Nivea and an oil free moisturiser such as Oil of Olay Complete. I am so glad that I purchased this product again, and I am not going back to the face cloths again. Not when I can feel that cool tingle!
