This is a nice cleanser from Paula's Choice. It is a rich cleansing gel, it foams up nicely but doesn't strip my skin and make it feel dry. The formula is derived of natural ingredients. This is...

So first I'll say I love the moisturizer from Paula's Earth Sourced line but this is the worst cleanser I've personally ever used. I have broken out on my cheeks and even on my nose which isn't...

I like this as a gentle shower gel, in spite of the fact that it's not my favorite cleanser from Paula's Choice. PROS: The PC Earth Sourced products are Vegan. Relatively gentle, compared...

I had high hopes for this cleanser because it has such great ingredients and it has a very light scent that didn't set off migraines. Sadly, it really dries my skin out and makes it feel tight and...

This cleanser may be truly 'earth sourced' but I wouldn't call it 99% natural. I wonder if 'Paulas choice' is going to have the 'earth sourced' line certified? Depending on how much rinsing you...
