However, a customer leaving a three-star review shared their dissatisfaction, saying: "Overall ok with products but not seen any improvement to date. The cleanser is very drying and it says use morning and night which is way too much! Was then advised to use once a week which should have been clearer from the outset. I don't have sensitive skin either. Instructions not clear."
