    This is another winning cleanser from Paula's Choice! It has a light gel texture that turns into a foam when in contact with water. It's very gentle and leaves my skin feeling clean. I do not find...

    Straight to the point: I absolutely love the texture of this cleanser. Gel turning into foam - very satisfying. However I can’t use it regularly on my normal/dry skin, I feel it is unfortunately...

    I got this as a free sample when buying other Paula's Choice products. I'm glad I got this free and didn't pay for it as it was a very underwhelming product. The reason why is it is not a...

    I religiously use certain products from Paula's choice but cleansers were never part of them because i've always been underwhelmed by their cleansers. However, i purchased the defense cleanser...

    I have been using this cleanser for one month and a few weeks since end of September. At first it was really nice, cleansed my skin really well, skin was smoother/brighter a bit, not drying etc....

    I have dry/combination skin with rosacea. I wear various tenacious mineral based sunscreens (Paula's Choice Super Light SPF 30, SkinMedica SPF 34, Elta MD UV Daily SPF 40) which require a thorough...

    Update: I gave the marks too soon. I do still think it's like cerave foaming but it does remove makeup way better than Cerave. Also a dime's worth is all I need because it is concentrated. Like...

    I like this a lot, and I have sensitive skin. It’s a thicker gel and a little goes a long way. The scent is mild and not unpleasant as is the case with the Earth Sourced cleanser, which I love in...

    I really wanted to like this. It removes makeup well without stripping the skin. However- beware if you have sensitive skin. Something in this made my skin red!!! I don’t get how they can claim it...

    Unfortunately I cannot recommend this product as I think it is basically an overpriced gel cleanser. I have used several gel-to-cream cleansers and I really liked them, this is not a gel-to-cream...
