If it weren't for Sephora offering this as a deluxe sample during F&F, I wouldn't have thought of picking this up. I'm so glad they did! It does a great job of removing make up (especially eye...

This cleanser is really nice. It removes eye makeup so well and that's why I love it so much. The only problem for me is, that it has parabens in it. That's the only reason why I'm not going to...

Probably my HG night cleanser. I've been using the tiny little 3oz ($10) bottle for almost two months now, so it's a great value for the money. I use an oil cleanser to remove my makeup, so there's...

A-MA-ZING! It takes of ALLL the makeup. And my skin is baby soft afterwards. I don't seem to have troubles with the "hard bottle" that some seem to, though. This was totally worth it, for me.

Let me start this review by saying that if your skin is at all dry or sensitive - give this a pass. This was recommended to me by a Sephora SA, so I decided to give it a try. My skin is normal...

I don't really see anything too great about this product. I think St. Ives does just as well, and is a lot cheaper.
