    It's a thick, creamy lotion cleanser with a little bit of grit to exfoliate. I thought my face would feel clean afterwards, but even after rinsing well with slightly warm water, I still felt like...

    I buy this cleanser over and over again, for so many reasons. I love the consistency, and have yet to find another like it- light and lotion-y, with sparse, tiny exfoliating beads. It contains a...

    I usually use Olay Gentle Clean in the Summer, but it was getting to the point in the winter where my skin was flaking and dry, so I switched to this because of it's lotion-like texture. It really...

    Not good. Too much fragrance and it left my dry skin feeling tight and irritated. Used once and dumped it in the trash.

    This is a really nice cream cleanser, that also helps treat/prevent breakouts, because it contains Salycilic Acid. I use this morning and night, and in the morning it is so gentle. At night, this...

    For whatever reason my skin has been getting oiler as I age instead of getting drying. I had dry my whole life and typically stuck with gentle cleanser like Cetaphil and Cerave. I had also used...

    I have very oily, sensitive, acne prone skin (i do have a lot of acne and scarring) and decided to give this a try. Well, the first night i used it, it broke me out. BIG TIME. I had little red...

    This cleanser is fine, although it doesn't say ANYWHERE that it has exfoliating beads and that is exactly what I didn't want. I wanted just a plain cleanser. The beads are so minuscule but still...

    UPDATE** After trying this over and over I realized it DOES break me out. Wow totally stinks. Or it's just that my skin hates me and this does not help, either way. Bummer. Original review...

    Been using this for a little over a week and so far it's working well. My skin needs moisture but I have to be careful since it 's prone to break out and clog easily. I'm also getting fine lines...

    I liked my other Olay products, so I thought why not give this a try since I just needed to add something to reach the free shipping @ drugstore.com. I dont remember the price, but it was like...

    I've been using this stuff since my teens. I have dry skin so while I need a sudsy cleanser to take off my makeup at night, I like something creamy in the morning. This stuff exfoliates slightly...

    It's not the worst, but it's not the best. It didn't cause my skin to break-out, it didn't dry out my skin, but it didn't exfoliate my skin. The micro-beads should just be done away with, because...

    I love this. It is very gentle, so don't expect your skin to feel stripped and dry after. It leaves my skin feeling baby smooth. While it won't work as easily for heavy-duty eyeliner, it is very...

    This product is creamy, so you can imagine its cleaning power. The beads in the cleanser barely works for me. After I wash off the cleaser, I feel some residue on my face, which defeat the original...

    Cleansers are one of my biggest battles. My skin is clear, not acne prone, not terribly sensitive, and borders on dry. Soooo many cleansers leave me walking out of the shower with a tight face that...
