I use this as a second cleanser and as a morning cleanser. I don't wipe if off but wash it off with lukewarm water. I think LRP Toleriane cleanser may cleanse makeup traces a bit better, but this...

It’s a great cleanser if you have sensitive skin. It’s gentle, and not drying. I use micellar water prior to cleansing because it won’t remove makeup, but it’s good for a basic cleanse.
