    I was hesitant to use this since it doesn't lather and I need something to remove foundation. Yet I was shocked how clean and comfortable my face felt after cleansing with this. I made sure to...

    I got a sample of this with my MB order (I bought drying & healing products for acne). I really like this cleanser. It does leave sort of a waxy film on my face if I'm in a rush and don't rinse...

    This cleanser doesn't lather, which I like. It also smelled nice and fresh. But honestly, I don't think it did anything to my skin.

    I didn't have a good experience with this line. I used it about 3 years ago and whether it was the cleanser or the combination of all the MB products together, i'm not sure, but i do remember my...

    THIS IS MY HG. And I have never had an HG before; I rarely give good reviews of anything because not much works. My skin is combo, acne-prone, and EXTREMELY sensitive to ALL cleansers; even if...

    This is a really great cleanser. I would reccommend this cleanser if your are new to non-foaming cleansers. This cleanser like all the MB cleansers I have tried, does not strip your skin. It...

    I really like this facial cleanser. No bells and whistles: a simple, clean scent and sort of grainy texture. Skin doesn't feel completely stripped, but clean. Over time, it's helped balance my...

    Honestly, I think my DG Neutrogena cleanser is better than this. I dislike the packaging and I didn't feel it doing anything different to my skin.

    I feel bad about being what looks like the only negative review, but I had a bad experience with it. It has made me break out in cysts, and although I had skin problems before using it, this...

    HG! I use this in the morning, so I can't say if it's great at removing makeup. This cleanser is so much better than the enzyme gel (even though the enzyme gel is more popular). The texture is the...

    I LOVE this stuff! I've tried what feels like every product available over the last decade, over the counter and prescription, off t.v., etc. Nothing has transformed my face quite like MB products!...
