I have used Senka Perfect Whip before, and I really like the texture of the fluffy and thick foam which cleanses off the clogged pores and brightens up the skin tone after washing. I have dry skin, but it didn’t dry out the skin after washing. I’d recommend you to use the face wash with the foaming net to create fluffy foam and wash your face gently.
