    For this to make the claim that it's gentle, it sure did burn alot. For a second there, I thought I was using one of those Biore self heating face masks! This stuff also stings around the eyes,...

    I had had this for a while but only recently started using it daily. I developed screaming red cheeks, and thought I was getting rosacea. Nope, it was this cleanser. Bad bad bad. I actually can...

    GREAT for oily skin - if you have dry skin, don't use this! This is not an everday facial wash in my opinion, but its good for the occassional deep cleansing as it seems to act like a mask too. The...

    i'm on the fence about this cleanser: it cleans well without stripping my combo skin, but the high percentage of rosemary oil makes it very irritating. the ingredient list reads like a wish-list of...

    This product stinks. No, literally STINKS. I don't get it, it's active ingredients are Sage, I think, and Kaolin. But it smells like sulfur, and leaves that delightful scent on your face and...

    This cleanser is a bit too harsh for my sensitive combination skin, but I do enjoy the way my skin feels after use. It gives the same clean, tight sensation as clay masks, but in 60 seconds instead...

    This is disgusting. It smells like dirt which would be fine if it worked. It took NONE of my makeup off, and I didn't have that much on, just foundation. It was like I had not washed my face at...

    This works best among others of this line for my oily/normal skin. I like the 'mask' feeling that you get from an everyday cleanser. It is a cleanser that really works on lifting the oils and...

    I bought all my C.O. Bigelow face care in the travel sizes so I could make my judgement and not have spent a lot of money. We let's just say I went back and bought the whole regimen when I ran...

    I apply this to a dry face and leave it on for a minute or so (as directed) before washing off. It works very well at getting makeup off and is absolutely wonderful for the hot, humid Florida...

    I like this very much. Its like a mini clay mask to use daily. But like other reviewers said, avoid the eye area because it will sting. Otherwise its great, it gives my skin a very nice glow and...

    Holy mother of God, this stuff stings like hell if it gets into your eyes, and it will. Too drying for my combo skin but would be great for someone who is oily. Deluxe gentle foaming is much better...
