I managed to snag a case of travel size bottles of this on ebay. I got about 30-40 bottles. I've been using this for awhile now, and I can safely say it's one of the best cleansers I've ever used....

This is the best cleanser I have ever found. I used to use Cetaphil but I found that it didn't do a great job at removing my makeup. Purpose is just as gentle, it's super inexpensive, never...

I loved this product but I can no longer find it anywhere in my area. I have dry skin so I loved this version but have reverted back to the classic cleanser. It works but can be drying.

I feel clean after I am done, it removes makeup and grim. Sometimes it takes more then a few splashes to get all the product off. No fragrance-bonus!

I really enjoyed this cleanser. My skin was drying out from all the acne killers I was using so I bought this at Big Lots for 1.99. It is soap free, fragrance free, and oil free - so it doesn't...

This is the most gentle cleanser in the drugstore, and Purpose discontinued it. What are you doing J+J? My skin is normal to dry and sensitive, and this was way better than Cetaphil or anything...

Fantastic product for those that are drying out from Retin-A. I use this at night in rotation with the regular Purpose Gentle Cleanser.

Every so often I decide to go back to this and start using this again. I usually do that in the winter when my skin needs an extra gentle cleanser because of the cold dry air. This does a good job...

I have sensitive, combination skin. This cleanser leaves my skin feeling clean and soft. I don't think it's very moisturizing; however, it's difficult for me to say whether or not it is since I...

I think this cleans well and leaves behind some moisture--but not a lot. It didn't seem to be greasy either. People on the boards are saying it "leaves behind a film"...well that may be true,...

I did not much care for this- found this quite average. Granted, it's not as stripping as other drugstore cleansers, but there are definitely more hydrating cleansers out there. Over time, the...

This is a great cleanser. Plenty of thick foam...which I know doesn't really do anything but ain't it fun. It removes all of my makeup including mascara and doesn't dry out my face. It's also...
