It's hard to get moving these frosty mornings, isn't it? Short of mainlining coffee via an intravenous drip, I'm not quite sure how to kickstart the freezy cold days but I thought that a nice fruity face wash might be a good way to inject a little zing into my winter routine.

It claims to eliminate spots and blackheads, deep cleansing skin without drying it, and it seems to be doing a fair job of keeping things reasonably clear.
