    Didn't really feel like it got my face that clean. Non-irritating and no fragrance, though. I guess I like Dan Kern's Clear Skin Regimen cleanser and Paula's Skin Balancing cleanser better (both...

    I found this cleanser to be really similar to Cetaphil, which I didn't like much either. I wear a lot of makeup- heavy foundation, gel eyeliner, waterproof mascara and this just does not remove...

    Here are the reasons why I like it: * doesn't dry out my sensitive but oily skin * hasn't caused an allergic reaction or breakout * has a neutral smell, doesn't smell like anything really *...

    A very good, gentle, non-irritating cleanser that does a prett good job at removing makeup and cleaning. It's a very standard cleanser that just feels a lot more "pure" than most other cleansers...

    I've used this for about a month and it seems perfect for my oily/pre-rosacea skin. Other cleansers I'd used in the past irritated my skin very slightly, although I didn't realize until I tried...

    This is probably my favorite cleanser. It keeps me skin clear and rinses off easily with no residue. I use moisturizer after, but I don't feel like I have to (somewhat oily skin). The cleanser...

    Very nice basic cleanser. I have sensitive combination skin that is sometimes acne prone, but this never irritated it. The cleanser's pretty good at taking off make up as well. Would definitely buy...

    This cleanser is ok......I prefer the Normal to dry version. It seems to be more gentle on my skin and removes my eye makeup better. I use it all year round since it doesn't leave any residue. This...

    This is a basic gel cleanser. It does not lather and reminds me a lot of Cetaphil, which Paula talks about in her books, but it actually feels better to me than Cetaphil. Really takes all the...

    This is a great basic cleanser. Takes off the majority of my makeup (I always take my eye makeup off first with an eye makeup remover) and does not dry out my skin. It also did not cause breakouts....

    This is a great winter cleanser if you have normal to oily skin. It is like Cetaphil in that it doesn't strip your skin, but unlike Cetaphil it actually cleans oil from your pores, so you don't...

    This is a no-fuss cleanser, like what the others say. If you've had treatments for acne this is the cleanser to go to. This does not sting at all, no matter how bad I've peeled. PC products are...
