    I used this product for many years not realizing how drying it was on my skin. I recently switched to Shu Uemura Cleansing Oil instead, and am amazed to find out how well that works instead....and...

    I love, love, love this!!! It prevents breakouts and was the only skin cleaner that helped my skin get used to the humidity (and oil!!) in Chicago!! It's a little pricey ($17.50), but you only need...

    I got this product as in sample size (7ml) when I purchased 'Eye Doctor'. This is supposed to be my ideal cleanser as it's designed for combination skin. Well, as for me I've found it's a bit too...

    This was reccommended when my otherwise rather oily skin was suffering from a dry spell. I liked the texture and the scent. It just bursts into foam even though you have only mixed a teeny bit with...

    This product by Origins is designed to be used by those with combination skin, which I would say that I have. For a huge tube of the stuff it is £15 which is very expensive compared to what I am...

    Initially received Get Down as a sample, but found it to be too drying on my oily skin, and it produced even more oil since it was so dry!! I mentioned this to the SA and she suggested I try Checks...

    This is one of the few items I repurchase regularly. Both my husband and I use it - we love the way it leaves skin feeling baby soft after use, plus it has a gentle scent. Only complaint is that...

    I was very disappointed with this. Seemed like it worked well the first few times I used it to clean my face but after a few days my skin became very irritated. Will definitely not purchase again!

    I have fairly sensitive skin and although I love Origins products for my skin, this was just too harsh and actually gave my skin a rash. It is too strong for skin like mine.
