I LOVE PC products; her BHA exfoliants cleared up my skin like nothing else. This cleanser however is terrible, it does not fully wash off and only serves to dehydrate my skin and cause MAJOR...

This is hands down one of the best cleansers I have EVER used for oily skin. It removes my makeup well, doesn't strip away moisture, and leaves my skin hydrated and happy. There's is nothing else...

I could just kick myself for buying this cleanser. I bought it because it was supposedly oil-reducing, and I have a very oily t-zone. It is far from it. It made me break out like a teenager with...

I found this cleanser to be creamy, but drying. It also didn't remove all my makeup. I had to either wash with it again or use another cleanser afterwards. The worst part about it was the fact...

I usually don't hate or love cleansers. As long as they are gentle, I am fine with it. You really can't go wrong with Paula's Choice. I have combination skin with an oily forehead and nose, my...

I HAD THE SAMPLE I'm actually impressed. I don't normally expect much from my cleanser - just get the dirt/oil/makeup off of my skin and don't leave me dry and tight or greasy. Other than that,...

I am loving how gentle this cleanser is while being strong enough to clean and rinse off most of my makeup, with the bonus of not irritating my sensitive acne-prone skin at all. Not only that, it...

A great cleanser, removes all oil in my face without making it too dry. The biggest size last me for more than a year, so it's quite economist.

Awesome cleanser, balances out my skin, doesn't leave it dry, and doesn't irritate it. Good price too. Will repurchase. It removes sunscreen well.

Didnt like this, was way too harsh on my nose/eye area. It literally hurt so much when using it! Was far too drying and made my skin flaky. Wouldnt recommend for sensitive skin.
