    I really wanted to like this product. BUT!! I have combination skin, very acne prone, very sensitive. I go pretty light on makeup during the day, with just a little bit of Clinique Stay...

    I think this is a good cleansing product. The cleanser is creamy but surprisingly removes the dirt and grimes of the day. It also rinses easily. My skin felt soft after washing but it did feel...

    This cleanser is not as drying as other cleansers. However, it caused me to break out (especially in weird patterns/places I never break out), it does not remove makeup well as it claims, and it...

    This is my HG cleaner. I have been through about 3 or 4 bottles of it now. It takes off most makeup but I do feel like I need to double cleanse if I only use this (note: I only use my hands and...

    I got the complimentary trial size which is a nice travel mini. Mine didn't foam and it had a lotion like feel. I have combination skin, tending towards dry but with an oily T zone. I am prone to...

    This cleanser is pretty nice, but I just don't think it's worth the high price tag. There are so many great drugstore cleansers, and even Paula's Choice skin balancing cleanser performs similarly...
