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.

This stuff is great! Found some at Target for under 4 bucks. It was recommended by a derm that used it herself many years ago, and I saw in Vouge that Lisa Airan MD uses it herself. It is really effective with removing makeup, even mascara. Pump is handy except for travel.

Nice and gentle wash leaving my face feeling clean but not stripped dry. The pump broke after a while.

Good product. I disagree about the price. I find it to be completely affordable - more so than the other cleansers I have used in the past (Lancome, DDF, etc). I started to use this because I AM on a budget!

This product did not work well for me at all. It left my face greasy after I washed and it seems like a watered down soap.
