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.

    I really like this cleanser. It is gentle, thick, has good ingredients, does not dry out my skin, and leaves my skin feeling soft. Unlike the Seaweed cleansing soap, it does not leave behind a...

    I credit my good skin to Mario Badescu products. I had really bad skin from my teens to early 20s... it was just horrible. I went to dermatologists but topical creams didn't do anything but dry out...

    This broke me out so badly in cysts across my forehead, chin and cheeks. It also made my lips and eyes sting whenever I used it, even when I made sure to completely avoid those areas. Look closely...

    This made my pores look even bigger. My face also felt oiler after using this. My teen daughter has great results. I will stick to Bare Escentuals or Philosophy.

    I really like how the enzyme cleansing lotion smells, and how gentle it is. It says it's suppose to remove makeup, but I don't think it does the best job at that, but overall, I think it's a nice...
