    This cleanser leaves my skin feeling clean and fresh without being stripped, which is always a plus. This also doesn't break me out and has kept my skin calm for many months, but I don't feel it...

    Didn't thoroughly take off my foundation and eye makeup, seemed to irritate my skin a tiny bit, and is insanely expensive for a cleanser. I really don't think it's worth paying big bucks for a...
