It's a decent face wash. It cleans my face well without making my skin dry. I like the pump packaging because it isn't messy and gives you just the right amount of product. I do feel like it doesn't really foam up as much as it should though.

I thought that buying an Olay facial cleanser would help remove my makeup and dirt, as well as leave my skin feeling clean. This was not the case with Olay's foaming face wash - combination/oily.

Not only did this product do a terrible job at removing makeup and dirt, it left my skin feeling soapy. I literally felt like I had just washed my face with a generic bar soap. YIKES! This product is deceitful. It feels so smooth when you squirt a dap into your hands and even when you are washing, however, it left my skin feeling tight and filmy.

I suppose for the reasonably low price, these results could have been expected. I really never considered that Olay could produce such a low-end product. I will not recommend this product to anyone nor will I purchase it again.

A great basic everyday cleanser. It has a fresh scent and available in pump or squeeze top. It does feel that I need to rinse my face for a longer amount of time than other cleansers. However, due to my skin type, this cleanser did end up leaving my skin somewhat dry. This product is best for those with normal-to-oily skin (mine is more normal to dry). I still use the Olay hydrating fluid each night and the Complete during the day but will need to stick to a cream cleanser (Noxzema).

I usually really enjoy using Olay products, but this one didn't do the trick. I have a few major problems with it. 1.) It didn't take off my makeup well at all. If I use this face wash I have to use a makeup wipe first and THEN wash my face with this. Normally with other cleansers I can skip the makeup wipe, but if I try to do that with this cleanser, I end up with left over makeup on my face. 2.) Where are the suds?! It doesn't foam up at all, and it has a glue-like consistency. 3.) Not only does it feel like glue, it also smells like it! Overall, I'm not impressed with this and it didn't help to keep my face clear and blemish free at all. My face didn't feel clean after using it. I'll be trying other cleansers from now on.

Been using this product for years. Not only comes packaged in the pump bottle but the squeeze bottle. I have sensitive, oily acne prone skin and this works great on me. Removes every trace of dirt, oil and makeup without leaving me feeling dry. Even with using a toner afterwards there was no makeup left behind. Super gentle and foamy.

i really like this wash. it smells nice and gets my makeup off. it makes my face feel really clean after it's dry and doesn't dry my face out at all. my only problem with it is it seems like i have to rinse my face 10x to get it off. it almost feels filmy until my skin is dry. hopefully i'm not leaving behind any residue, but i guess time will tell!

I adore this! This is possibly my HG face wash. It feels very clean and fresh on my face and is not drying at all. I've noticed that it also gives my face this wonderful glow. I didn't think it was possible and I don't know what's in it that does it, but I see a difference in my face. It doesn't help my acne unfortunately, (not that it's supposed to because it's not an acne wash) but I wish it did, but I love it nontheless.

I like so many Olay products, including their sensitive skin cleanser, so I was surprised by how much I hate this one. The smell is SO STRONG that when I used it I was holding my breaths as long as possible, to avoid smelling it. And it didn't cleanse -- left lots of makeup on my face, and I don't really wear a ton of makeup to start with. I used it for several days, thinking maybe I wasn't using enough of it, or wasn't scrubbing my face with it long enough for it to take the makeup off, but nothing I did changed the effectiveness. Will not buy again and am throwing out the almost-full bottle.

I have combination skin that dries out really easily without moisturizer, but gets oily in no time flat with moisturizer (in other words, I can't win). This cleanser is the best one I've tried for my face. It cleans my face without overdrying, and even removes ALL of my makeup (including mascara). It's even gentle enough for me to use morning and night. Definitely HG.

The only good thing about it is that it doesn't dry your skin out, but that's because it DOESN'T CLEAN your skin!!! I liked this until I used my toner and had to use 4 cotton balls to get all my makeup off! I tried it again and again with more soap and sudsing it up more and making sure I rinsed well, but same thing every time. I love all olay products normally, but this doesn't do it's main purpose, to clean!
