This is one of the best drugstore cleansers I've ever used. I'm constantly looking for skin-friendly gems, so I bought this blind because of reviews I read both here and elsewhere. ...

not ultra gentle. this stuff made my eyelids burn, even though my skin is currently in good condition. I looked up all of the ingredients, and it turns out that it contains Lye (Sodium Hydroxide),...

I'm wild about this gentle (water-soluble) facial cleanser for my dry, sensitive, acne-prone skin. It is the only face wash I've ever used that doesn't make my skin feel tight or uncomfortable...

I like this. It has a gel texture and it leaves my skin feeling clean, but not tight. It rinses off easily and doesn't leave a film. No scent whatsoever. It's not outstanding for removing heavy...

I love using this cleanser because it was very gentle and left my skin feeling plump and moisturized unlike many cleansers that dried out my skin. I do feel some tingling sensations like most...

I normally would use this cleanser but have been using Lancome's Confort Mousse on a trial for a few months. I would say that this one is a bit better mainly because of the price factor.. I find...

Do not waste your money on this cleanser! It is far from being "ultra gentle". It burns and stings your skin. I thought it was a normal reaction because I'm currently using Epiduo on my cheeks, so...

Wish I'd read other reviews here before buying - this horrible cleanser stung like crazy! I don't generally have sensitive skin, and had never experienced this before. Don't think that you're safe...

This cleanser is okay, but nothing too special. It does not irritate my skin, which is great. But at the same time, it does not cleanse and remove makeup as well as the Cerave Foaming cleanser...

I like this cleanser very much. I've been using it for about two months. It helps my dry skin feel much more smooth, supple, and moisturized. I cannot speak to its effectiveness in removing makeup,...

After my Acne.org cleanser became too drying and my skin started to behave more, I was searching for a more gentle cleanser with the proper pH level. I purchased this a long time ago but for some...

I think this is my holy gray cleanser -- it's at the ideal pH ~5ish (I got some pH testing strips from amazon to test the pH of my skincare items). I find this to be a superior alternative to...

I have tried numerous cleansers for dry skin. None were hydrating, and to one degree or another, stripped my skin of its natural oils. While looking for skin care products at the drugstore,...

I had high expectations for this cleanser. I've used it twice as my night cleanser. First time I used it, it stung my face and eyes. I thought it might be a fluke since it is ultra gentle. Second...

A cleanser is supposed to cleanse, right? Then why doesn't this product do just that? If you wear make up , this product is a total and utter waste of your time and money. You will need something...
