I just love this cleanser. The price is right and it removes all of my makeup (I do not wear waterproof). My skin feels clean after. I have repurchased this so many times now I have lost count. It...

I give this high marks, but I probably won't buy it again, except for use in the hottest and stickiest days of summer. My face is just too dry the rest of the year, I guess. It is like...

This is my new staple winter cleanser. My skin is acne-prone, and while it's oily in the summer, it tends to get dry and flaky in the winter. This cleanser leaves my skin feeling soft and NOT dry,...

I briefly used this semi-opaque gel when my face turned to desert last winter. It did the job, didn't irritate, didn't clog and left my face silkier than the normal/combo cleanser. Very good,...

It claims to clean face from make up and not leaving the skin dry. Well, it leaves my skin dry and taut after I use it, and sometimes there are still makeup patches left!! especially under-eye...

At first I thought I found my perfect cleanser, but after using it for a while, I noticed that it still dries my skin out a little. I will be using this in summer, but in winter when my skin is...

Even though I have combo, acne prone skin - I prefer this cleanser to the normal/oily one. I find it less drying and it takes off my makeup better. Love this cleanser.

Great stuff! Pair this with a WonderCloth and it even takes off mascara! I've been using this for a long time, reordered quite a few times, and feel bad for not reviewing this before. Haven't even...

Great gentle, fragrance-free, dye-free cleanser that really does get off the dirt and makeup, although I still use eye makeup remover for the mascara. There isn't any residue left over when I...

I love this cleanser. Use it everyday. Removes makeup, doesn't hurt my eyes, doesn't "complete" with the stuff I get from my dermatologist (claron + differin). Totally plain and totally good -...

This has been a staple for the past 4 years. I keep trying out other cleansers but still come back to Paula's! I love the fact that it removes my makeup/cleanses with out stripping my skin. I don't...

I love this stuff! There's something in the Skin Recovery line that irritates my (overly sensitive) eyes, but I've repurchased this one several times. I even use it for removing eye makeup...

This is Cetaphil on Turbo-Drive. If you wanted to love Cetaphil and it just didn't work for you, try PC's cleanser. I love this cleanser, it completely removed my makeup, was gentle and washed away...

I heard this compared to Cetaphil on other boards but I have to disagree. I tried the Cetaphil and didn't like the way my skin felt and my face felt greasy. This product is great. Just a little...
