HG makeup remover - removes even stubborn waterproof eye makeup, and feels light, fresh and non-oily without being drying. I usually use this to remove makeup at night, then follow either with alcohol-free toner, or a cleansing cream/balm for a massage, or face mask if I want to deep-cleanse or intensive moisture. It's fairly expensive, but lasts a long time. Not keen on the screw-top, would prefer a flip-top or pump spray. HG for me, have repurchased twice already.
I've the non-rinse version. I like the fact that it's one-step, it leaves my skin wonderfully soft and I like the scent. I only use it at night though as it makes my oily skin worse, but it's probably pretty good for those with drier skins. In addition, it's not very economic, you have to use quite a bit of it to get all your makeup off.
I got this in a swap and I've been using it for the past 2 weeks and I like it. I've been using it in the shower so I don't know if it removes makeup or anything, but it does leave my skin feeling soft and smooth. At first I was skeptical since the beads were so tiny and they don't seem "rough", but after you're done washing your face, you can feel that it removed your dead skin. But for the price, I wouldn't buy it.
Gorgeous if you like the scent of orange essential oil. Nice if you cannot be bothered to use a regular cleanser.
I think this is not as mild as the Vichy water cleanser and about double the price. Also, the Vichy doesn't have any oils floating on top, which makes it a safer eye makeup remover. This leaves a bit of a sting and it is hard to tell how much makeup is coming off because the toner leaves an orange residue on the cotton pad. I love the scent but would probably say the peach Water Comfort Cleanser is a better product for me.
I found this product too oily for my mixed type of skin ,although i used it during the winter . Though it cleanses well make up -i will not buy this product again and i hope to find a better one -step cleanser.
Ok, again i need the maybe option in the repurchase option, so my answer to that is: Maybe. This is ok when i am too lazy to clean my face with water and foaming cleanser, but i wouldn't use this daily, i like the new cleansing waters by clarins much better. Status: there is better stuff out there.
Perfect for late nights when you just don;t have the energy to do your whole routine! Not for daily use, but and as-needed type of product. You can actually feel a bit of a moisture cushion on your skin after wiping it away. Love the scent too! Keep this one on hand!

I wouldnt use this permenantly either as i love to cleanse with water. This is the only non rinse cleanser ive found that doesnt cause me to break out or go running to the nearest sink. Just bought a bottle of this for my hospital bag. (having a baby at the end of December!)
I keep coming back to this, and have done for the last 5 or so years. As others have said, it's great for when you can't/don't want to use water. I can't think of anything quite like it. It removes all makeup, but really leaves your skin well conditioned. It's an important alternate in my skincare arsenal.
