I received a Tvakh face wash as a gift. My initial thoughts about this face wash were – why this product?
I don’t have acne, I do have skin discoloration and scars on the face. My skin is super dry at times and at times it is a mix of dry and medium.
So technically this facewash would be a disaster for my skin…right? But, I have had some amazing results and would like to share them with you.
Let’s first take a look at the facewash…so you understand what I am talking about.

Tvakh Face Wash Review
I have been using the face wash for a month now. It has helped my skin look and feels squeaky clean. It has helped in minimizing dark spots and discolorations.
How to use the Face Wash
The face wash comes with a soft turbo cleansing tool or brush (attached to a pump). You need to wet your face and pump some face wash foam on to the brush.
Gently massage this foam into your skin ( using the tool). I sometimes use my fingers to massage the foam as I do not want to over-exfoliate.
Rinse off with water. It is best to follow up with a face serum ( I use this face serum with Centella extract and hyaluronic acid).
What can you expect?
The ingredients are good exfoliants and will lighten and even out your skin tone.
Since the ingredients are natural and organic, it will take a week or two to notice the results. I could mark a noticeable difference within a week.
The skin looks fresh and bright.
Results
I have been using the face wash for a month. It does dry my skin so I use it once a day. If I have been out most day, I use it at night. It cleanses the skin so well.
I moisturize with a face serum and coconut oil after using the facewash as my skin is super dry.
Where to purchase it?
You can purchase it on Amazon. Sometimes I have noticed a price drop, so do keep it on your watch list.
