    Love this cleanser. It's the only thing I use. It's gentle, but gets rid of makeup better than anything else I've used. It's not drying and doesn't cause me to breakout.

    I have this in the 16 oz size for $18, which I think is a great deal. There are a lot of pros about this. It doesn't break me out. After washing with it, my face feels very clean and refreshed, not...

    This is one of the better products from Paula's Choice. It's light, creamy, and doesn't make my oily skin feel dry or tight, or leave an oil slick behind. It does a really good job of removing...

    I was a devotee of Paula's balancing Cleanser, and tried this on a whim--that was 7 mos. ago. I have ordered more of this since. It's very effective at cleansing---but I do usually use the...

    This cleanser has done more to clear up my skin than any other product. I used to have blackheads on my nose and moderate acne more or less consistently. Now I rarely notice blackheads (If I do, I...

    I like this face wash a lot because it's so gentle but I wear long-wearing foundation (Dior Forever) and I'm not convinced that this removes all traces of makeup. I use this as a "prewash"....

    This is an excellent basic cleanser but imo $$$ for what it is. It does get my face really clean without stripping it or making it feel tight. I will probably look for a good ds cleanser when this...

    50 cents for 0.15 oz sample with free shipping, lasts me about 3 trials. I think it's a gentle cleanser, good for mornings just to get my face less oily when makeup doesn't need to be removed. I...

    A very pleasant, non-irritating facial cleanser with no scent or added irritants. A small amount goes a long way and you can use this with a face cloth, gauze cloth or your fingers. It rinses off...

    I simply dislike it, the texture, the cleaning without feeling cleaned, and actually I haven't found any pricey PC product that suits me.
