Cleans face very well
I like that you use only a tiny amount to create a lot of lather. It really make your face feel clean and the skin tight especially after shaving

Yuzu blast
Compact squeeze tube containing 2 ounces of facial wash. The wash is a clear liquid soap and a bit on the thin side so when first giving it a try its recommended to keep the open end upright and give it a gentle squeeze to prevent an excess amount from dripping out. The fragrance will instantly perk you up with sharp and pleasant notes of Yuzu (Japanese citrus) and a hint of tea tree oil. Just a small dollop is all that's needed for a thorough cleanse.

Has Salicylic acid of undisclosed percentage
I like the cleanser, and more or less agree with the previous reviews. Currently, the only ingredient that seems to help with mild to medium acne is Salicylic acid. Most competitor products have 2%, probably a limit of under the counter usage. I assume it is the same percentage here, although I could not find the real value on the packaging or the container.What I am not a fan of:- The aluminum tube is very industrial, like the cheapest glue used to arrive in such containers long-long time ago. The paint was already chipped away at many areas when I got it out of the outside carton box. Assuming, the paper cannot chip away the paint, this already happens in the factory before the aluminum tube gets into the box. I would say this product cannot be purchased to give it to someone as a gift. The state the container arrives looks like an "already used" product (though I assume mine was new as the outside box was fine).- The price. I would say this product is expensive. You should be able to find a handful of alternatives in many product groups.

pleasant scent for eucalyptus lovers
I love this cleanser, especially the scent. I'm a huge fan of the eucalyptus scent, which seems to be the more prominent smell in this yuzu+eucalyptus combination. It just smells very uplifting and relaxing to me, which is great for mornings when I wake up and at night when I'm about to go to bed. I didn't find it overwhelming at all, just a gentle pleasant fragrance. It is a clear liquid with sort of a sticky gel like consistency to it, so it isn't entirely runny and liquid. It foams up a tiny bit and does a great job of cleansing the face. My face felt really clean afterwards and I highly recommend following with a moisturizer. There are some potentially irritating ingredients for those with super sensitive skin (glycolic acid, salicylic acid, etc) but I personally did not experience any irritation or breakouts after use. This comes in an aluminum tube, like toothpaste.

works well and leaves skin feeling soft
my wife has been using this one for awhile now. she likes how it leaves her skin feeing clean without feeling dry or stripped. the cleanser lathers well and has a nice scent leaving her feeling refreshed. the tube is a bit small but you really only need a small amount so its around the same price point as other quality cleansers.

Non-drying and smells heavenly
Koa's yuzu facial cleanser comes in a metal tube. The cleanser is clear and smells strongly of yuzu wth mild hints of eucalyptus. The scent is pleasant and energizing to me, but everyone's nose is different. As a cleanser, it works really well. A pea sized amount produces a wonderful lather that leaves my face feeling clean and fresh. I follow it up with toner and my serums. Though the scent is strong, it doesn't linger and once rinsed, the smell goes away.Some cleansers leave my skin feeling tight and dry after washing. This doesn't dry out my skin at all, but just leaves it feeling incredibly clean and soft. Even if I skip moisturizer, my skin isn't dried out.The only thing I'd change is the bottle. The tube is metal, which is fine, but the cleanser immediately dispenses as soon as you open the cap. It's sometimes hard to not get too much, and you really don't need much. Otherwise, it's perfect.

Gel consistency, subtle Yuzu scent, lots of chemical ingredients
This product comes in an aluminum tube, much like the old school aluminum toothpaste tubes I grew up with. I really like the smell of Yuzu which is why I was interested in this product, however the eucalyptus smell is quite overpowering and the scent of the Yuzu gets lost in translation. I’m not a huge fan of eucalyptus so having this as the top note wasn’t ideal. The face wash itself is like an aloe vera/gel consistency, and a little goes a long way in fact a fingertip sized amount was enough to cleanse my face. This wash was non-irritating to my sensitive skin, but it is loaded with chemical ingredients for all of the marketing regarding all natural ingredients from Hawaii. I did not enjoy the stronger eucalyptus smell. Smell is a subjective thing but based on this I would not buy it again based on my personal preferences. If you like a cool refreshing eucalyptus scent then you’ll probably enjoy this product more than I did. Lastly the box came completely beat up and if someone wanted to give this is a gift it likely wouldn’t be suitable in the condition it arrived in.

Better than my Kiehls Ultra Facial Cleanser
My go-to face wash for years was always Kiehls Ultra Facial Cleanser. I recently got this cleanser to try, and I have been very impressed. This might actually dethrone the Kiehls for me.There are a few things I really like about this. Firstly, this does not dry out my face as much as the Kiehls; this also feels much less viscous than the Kiehls, which is nice. Secondly, I really enjoy the eucalyptus smell, which gives fresh vibes. Lastly, there is a nice menthol feeling on your face after using this cleanser. Beyond that, my face feels very clean and fresh after using this.The biggest drawback with this (the only drawback, really), is that it is quite a bit more expensive per mL vs. the Kiehls. If the price doesn't bother you, grab it.
