    I have used this for years, and I still don't know what to say... It's fine. It feels gentle on my skin and doesn't irritate it. I don't think it works any miracles, but my face feels clean without...

    I thought this cleanser was just ok. It didn't seem to be strong enough to take all of my makeup off though (and I don't wear a lot). It didn't break me out and it didn't have a strong smell to it.

    I used to go through multiple bottles of this when my skin was combination, leaning towards oily. I am prone to milia and hives and this didn't aggravate. Now that my skin is combination, leaning...

    TLDR: Buy it. Now. Pros: no "fake" scent, gentle, cleansing, cheap, pump. Cons: doesn't always take off waterproof makeup. This is one product that really lives up to all the hype, if you...

    I love this facial cleanser for my acne-prone, dehydrated skin. It's a no-nonsense cleanser that doesn't aggravate my skin. Rinses off easily. I buy two of the large bottles at a time, one for...

    I used Neutrogena Clear Pore Cleanser/Mask for YEARS, and that product still gets high reviews from me. But after being diagnosed with rosacea, I had to re-think my skin care, and I had to face...

    Amazing. It removes my makeup really well which surprised me since most facial washes don't. And for the price, it's awesome!! I find it to be gentle on my skin as well. No crazy fragrances, and I...
