description

A gel consisting of a non-foaming formula that thoroughly removes impurities without drying the skin. Its papaya and grapefruit extracts contain exfoliating properties that help to remove the build-up which is the cause of blackheads and pimples. The gel lessens skin irritation, making it suitable for sensitive skin. Its oil-free, non-lathering gel makes cleansing fuss-free.

This is the only cleanser I'll ever use on my sensitive skin. It leaves my skin clean without suds/foam. Smells great too.

I received a generous sample of this with my MB order. This cleanser doesn’t foam, but it cleans relatively well, with little residue. I certainly didn’t like it enough to make it my regular...

I really enjoyed the smell of this product - it's too drying for me right now (had to switch back to Cetaphil) but I look forward to using again.

Good basic cleanser. Didn't make me break out and rinsed off all makeup residue. However, in the winter months it made my combo skin feel a bit drier and if you have sensitive skin, be aware of the...

It smells nice and it's gentle, but it did not wash away make up like it claims. I usually love MB products, but this wasn't for me. When I try to wash off my make up, it still left some residue...
