Would I purchase again? Meybe cnt really decide

For a milk cleanser it kinda is drying, also I find that the smell is really strong. Like a cocktail of alcohols. Will probably not purchase again if i find a better cleanser.

This product is doing wonders for my winter-time dry skin. I have finally found a product that I am willing to spend money on. This product is awesome. I know I'm late in responding to this but ladies mostly any product that is not meant for the eyes will burn your eyes. I would know because I have done this many times trying numerous Avon and Mark products being that I am a Rep. It has taken me several months to find something that I like and I found this. Also know, that any time you cleanse your face you should be applying a moisturizer. I use For Goodness Face SPF30 along this product. It gives my face a finished smooth look. I LOVE IT!!!!

It truly is milk!!! I ordered this cleanser from an avon representative and recently bought two. The texture was incredibly soothing, and the next day I noticed that the oil on my oil skin is starting to disappear. Truly a reMARKable product. HG!!!

This works wonders on my very dry skin! obviously its not like most face washes since its soap free but its strong enough to remove all my face makeup and leave it feeling clean! I definitely do NOT use this to remove eye makeup because it burns like crayyyy-zy. This side effect is find with me since I use actual eye makeup remover and cotton rounds to take it off. For those of you looking for a soap free cleanser that doesn't strip you face every night I recommend trying this out! its cheap so not too big of a deal if you don't like it!

UPDATE 4/15/2013 : I stopped using this a while ago, it actually DID end up drying my face out. I actually don't know for certain that it was this product but I don't think it helped. Wont repurchase and good thing cuz it looks like its discontinued??!?

very gentle cleanser... i recommend this for winter skin, or all year round dry skin.
basically whenever i'm stressed out, i put this soothing cleanser on and it feels great!
it does have a scent, but not very strong. it's very milky banana oat scent, which i love! its a great cleanser that's definitely worth buying again as a contrast to one of your more very deep cleansers. a great product to have in your bathroom :)

This product is comparable to Philosophy's Purity cleanser in my opinion. It's very gentle and removes all my face makeup. (I used a separate eye makeup remover.) There's no fragrance and it has not broken me out at all. It's 6.7oz and it lasts quite a while (only because I use other cleansers). A little bit of it with water goes a long way.

I would probably purchase this cleanser again, only if I run out and have dry, sensitive skin. :D

This is a lovely soft cleanser. I used it the winter befor last when I had issues witht sensitivity. My skin had become temporarely very dry and slightly red. This was great to clean my skin. Hardly no smell and very gentle. If I had an Avon rep I would probably buy again.

I first tried this product about a year or so ago, and I really liked it. The smell and texture were really nice, and it didn't irritate my skin at all. The only complaint I would have is that it comes in a fairly small bottle, and therefore doesn't last very long. But then again, it's relatively cheap, so you get what you pay for. But after I ran out of my second bottle, I decided to just run to Shoppers and pick up something there that was quicker and that I didn't have to keep ordering again and again. Since then I've been using Noxzema's Original Deep Cleansing Cream. I recently switched back to this cleanser, though, because I remembered liking it so much. However, within the first day of using it, it made my face break out slightly, and by noon my face was just seeping with oil. And it was like that every single day. Which I never found with the Noxzema. But, determined to make it work (seeing as I purchased two bottles of this stuff), I cut down to using this cleanser just at night, and that solved the problem immediately. Would therefore not recommend this cleanser unless you have noticeably dry skin. Another complaint I have with the two new bottles I purchased is they changed the top of the bottle to a twist off cap, so it's extremely hard to dispense the cleanser without pouring out way too much. Wish they had stuck with the previous dispenser cap where you could just squeeze out the right amount.

I had this couple of years back but i didn't like it at all, i hated the texture and smell of it so i threw it out. I also notice it did nothing to my skin.

This product really does make you feel so calm!! As soon as i washed my face there was an immediate calming effect put on me. It was also very light weight, like the other "that's deep" cleanser. It also makes my face feel very smooth and milky. I would definatley buy this again!

I had first purchased thats deep cleanser and it worked okay. It cleared my face however it left it soo dry after. So when that finished i orderd this one instead. It is not what i expected i expected a creamy milky substance instead its like a regular cleanser. Well I love it, it does not really help with major breakout but it help to modularize my dry skin and leaves it soo soft... It seems more like a treatment to brighten and soften my face. It has really helped my complexion a lot. I love it and will repurchase this soon since im running out..I would highly recommend this for winter=dry skin

I expected a milky white cleanser with no suds, just a cream cleanser...and I got a pearly white cleanser that suds. The Mark rep. gave me like 5 large packect of this and the That's Deep Purifying Cleanser and I actually liked this better. I love how it suds and how gentle it is....definitely ordering this!

Note: My acne regime consists of strong anti acne products so a very gentle cleanser is necessary! I am a strong believer in Cetaphil Gentle Skin Cleanser and this Milk Cleanser is now apart of the club!

The smell doesn't bother me at all and will not stop me from using it!

I agree with the other girls that it burns your eyes but I don't think it's that bad. It does remove my make-up fairly well and it doesn't leave my face red like other cleansers. I have normal skin and this cleanser does not dry my skin at all. I use it and then apply For Goodness Face moisturizer in spf 30. Another amazing product by the way.

I love the smell of this and it did cleanse well. However it really stung when I got a little into my eyes. My makeup came off without having to really rub into my skin. My skin didn't end up all red after cleansing like it usually did. It was a little drying, I had to use a heavier moisturizer than usual. I felt my skin just tightening up afterwards.

Overall this a good gentle cleanser. It cleans well, never irritates my face and I actually like the smell. However, what the other girls say is true - this stuff BURNS if it gets into your eyes. Like not just a tiny bit...it's bad..which is not something you would expect from a gentle cleanser. I will continue to repurchase this, I've just learned to keep it away from my eyes-do not try and remove your eye makeup with this one, or you're asking for it.

I really was expecting to like it, given the title COMFORTING MILK CLEANSER.

Very misleading. It didn't smell comforting, unless the smell of chemicals takes you back to your childhood.

And the title would have you think it was very gentle - it dried out my skin terribly. My face isn't even prone to dryness at all, the minute I rinsed this off I could SEE the dryness from the cleanser.

It does it's job, but with more misery than I need. I've tried better for cheaper. Save your product money for something else.

Update: This burns your eyes like no other. It is PAINFUL. Also, I use it as a hand wash now to use it up, and it even dries out my hands, let alone my face.

I echo the other reviewers who have said that this burns if it gets in your eyes--I'm talking, mama-call-the-fire-department sort of burn.

I expect my cleanser to get all of my makeup off, including eye makeup. This worked relatively well for eye (and other) makeup removal, except for the part where it tried to remove my EYES, too. Don't think I'll buy it again, though it is lovely on the face.

I adore this face cleanser. I have oily, sensitive skin, so I wasn't expecting to like this. I received it as a sample when I ordered other mark. skincare products. I tried it out and noticed the amazing scent--like oats/vanilla--and the rich lather. It cleaned my skin effectively, left it soft and not oily. So far, I haven't experienced any breakouts or reactions. I love it and highly recommend it!

This works pretty well on my dry skin. It was very different than what I'm used to. It was very soft and milky as opposed to the usual apricot scrub I use but it did clean my make-up off very well and left my skin feeling moisturized and fresh. I'm not sure if I'd buy it again, I'm quite attached to my apricot scrub, but it's a very good product.

I'm a big fan of this! It removes all of my makeup -- even mascara -- and leaves my skin soft and clean feeling. There's very little lather, and you don't even need a washcloth for full makeup removal, which is great for sensitive skin. I took off one lippie because it stings A LOT when you get it in your eyes. It is lightly fragranced. Other than that, no complaints. I'm nearly finished my first bottle, and have already ordered another one.
