    My skin: acne-prone (constant mild acne) and combination, with lightly oily T zone and normal cheeks. My needs: a gentle, non-drying cleanser with mild foam, to use either by itself, to wash...

    I have been using this cleanser for a while now. I like how gentle and non-irritating it is. It doesn't remove all of my makeup, however, because when I use witch hazel after cleaning as a toner,...

    Definitely a gentle cleanser, and it doesn't leave my skin feeling tight which is rare for a gel cleanser. It smells good, but it isn't overpowering. I just wish it were better at removing eye...

    I totally love this product. It cleanses well, removes makeup effortlessly, and doesn't dry out my skin. I bought this for $5 at Wal-Mart, I loved it so much I ended up buying 2 more just for...

    I like this cleanser a lot, I think it is especially good for sensitive skin. It is very gentle and leaves my skin soft and hydrated.

    I really do like this gentle cleanser. It doesn't strip my face like other cleansers, and it doesn't leave a film on my face. It leaves my skin soft and hydrated and it's great for my acne-prone...

    Luckily I found this cleanser behind the moisturizer at the drugstore. Some clown had hidden this and there were only two left. Many years ago, back in 1984, I tried the bar soap and it was pretty...

    Really is like watching your face with watery. This cleanser is watery, does not foam. For me I felt like it did not clean my face enough or take off my makeup.

    I love this stuff. I used it for about 4 months, then I wanted to try Cetaphil since it was more popular, but it was too harsh on my skin, and it stung my eye area when I used it. This stuff is so...

    This is fantastic. Gentle, yet works well enough to clean you face without drying. I have good skin anyway, so I don't need all the other anti-acne things in other cleansers and I think my skin...
