When I travelled to Thailand 2 yrs ago, my usual expensive facewash exploded in my luggage so I picked a random alternative from the local pharmacy - Nivea Pearl Bright.

My skin was very good for the 3 weeks we were there (mainly I attributed that to the soft water as I live in a very hard water area) that I bought a couple more to bring back to the UK and asked someone else to bring me back some when I ran out of that supply.

I'm at a point I can't get a hold of more and looking for an alternative.

Prior to using this I used to get acne that needed to be drained to heal on the regular. Not 1 month without a flare up and redness and pores were an isssue.

My skincare routine used to be a lot more complex on a daily and weekly basis and now it's just 3 steps

- Nivea Face wash
- Niacinamide + Zinc booster serum (superdrug own brand is surprisingly good)
- CeraVe moisturizing lotion w/ 50 SPF

I haven't made any changes with my diet, medication or lifestyle and my skin for the last 2 years is the best its ever been - non existent breakouts, tiny pores and even tone (aside from existing acne scarring & bumps) and I kind of attribute it to this wash? I don't know but I'm freaking out because I'm on my last tube.

I looked and the only way I can see to get the exact item in the UK is through ebay and it looks sketchy.

I don't even know if the listed ingredients are good, so I have no clue what to replace it with.

Help me good people of reddit, you're my only hope.
