I absolutely love this face wash. Having acne-prone sensitive skin it's easy to buy into the first new acne cleanser that usually did nothing but dry out my skin and make it worse. After trying many cleansers labled specifically for acne prone skin I tried this one and I love it, it leaves no residue, clears your skin of oils and makes your face feel fresh and clean...never dry or irritated.

I have used this cleansing wash for years and find it superior to others I have tried. It's wonderful for sensitive skin and it does a great job of removing makeup. I love it.

I have used this product for over two years. I have acne-prone, sensitive, skin. I have had acne for 14 years and have tried several facial washes in that time. This is the best so far. It is very affordable, doesn't have an annoying/strong fragrance, and leaves my skin completely clean without overdrying it. Using this wash, a light % of BHA exfoliate, and a B.P., has kept my acne under control better than anything else. My doctor recommended this product and so do I. (note: be sure to lather well and then rinse well)

I am a post acne sufferer who has tried numerous cleansers. Nothing compares to this stuff! I LOVE IT! Many people have borrowed mine which has resulted in 5 of my friends becoming users as well.

It's a good cleanser, but after using it for a few weeks my skin feels dry and tight after I use it. It leaves my skin feeling really washed though, but slightly irritated.

I love this cleanser. It is so incredibly gentle and smooth and takes my makeup (& eye makeup) right off. It has a light fragrance that reminds me of baby shampoo, very pleasing. Packaging could be a bit better since the pump tends to get stuck in my bag if I travel with it. Overall I am very very pleased with it!

I really like this stuff but it leaves like this like white stuff on your face that rubs off and everything and it becomes really annoying.

This stuff is good but it's almost identical in ingredients to Johnson & Johnson Head to Toe Baby Wash, which is much cheaper and just as effective, IMO.

This is my favorite cleanser. I have tried many, many products and this one has a nice gel consistency, light & pleasant fragrance. My skin type is sensitive and acne-prone.
