description

A gel consisting of a non-foaming formula that thoroughly removes impurities without drying the skin. Its papaya and grapefruit extracts contain exfoliating properties that help to remove the build-up which is the cause of blackheads and pimples. The gel lessens skin irritation, making it suitable for sensitive skin. Its oil-free, non-lathering gel makes cleansing fuss-free.

    Wanted so badly to like this more. I have tried a few other MB products and had no problem with them, but this gel cleanser is too drying for my mature skin. My face feels tight and dry after...

    A very gentle cleanser that i'd thought I should try out because it might help to just cleanse and maybe sooth my combination/recently-misbehaving-around-the-forehead skin. Turns out it was...

    Received as a sample but I do not like this at all. No I didn't break out. But it leaves a film on your face afterwards which is so weird and I feel like it would cause you to break out unless you...

    I got this along with the buffering lotion. I have sensitive, chin and nose acne prone skin with cheeks that get dry and red. I use a garnier makeup removal wipe before cleansing. This cleanser...

    This cleanser is definitely not a good everyday cleanser. It leaves a film on you face after you put it on and does not lather. It has fruit in it that is acidic so it makes your face really soft...

    Not a big fan of this cleanser....the texture was too thick and it didn't leave my face feeling clean. IMO this is not a good cleanser to use with a Clarisonic since I could not feel the face wash...

    My skin type is aging/sensitive/acne prone, meaning it can be very challenging to take care of. That said, I still have a soft spot for cleansers and this one is pretty great. It's a thick gel,...

    A gentle cleanser that doesnt do anything for my skin, doesnt clean it or irritate it. Contains glitter (!?) that stays on the skin after rinsing the skin and using toner. Will not repurchase.

    I love the packaging and it's a great cleanser for your skin. It doesn't dry it or overmoisturize. However, it's not great at taking off makeup and for that price tag I would rather get a cleanser...
