Nice basic cleanser that doesn't irritate my skin and leaves it soft. Better than Cetaphil, which was my previous non irritating HG cleanser. Pros: - lovely consistency, a little thicker than...

Nice basic facial cleanser. Extra mild and does not irritate my sensitive skin. A bit expensive, but worth it. Has no discernible smell, and a little goes a long way.

First of all if you can get this stuff to foam then I will drink the rest of my bottle (and I have the large size), they really should change the name. However I wanted something that does not...

I have tried many face washes from Kiehls but have not loved any of them, in fact, I've returned quite a few to Nordstrom. This is the first one I LOVE! I have dry skin as the seasons change and...

Got a 5ml sample of this, it doesn't really foam very well, but I think it's a very gentle cleanser when your skin is sensitive or dry, I prefer cleanser that foams very well, so, this is not for me.

Great basic cleanser year-round for my combo skin. Kiehls is just about everywhere, which makes it easy to refill and recycle the old bottle. Little bit goes a long way and the lather is decent...

Used this for a week on my oily, acne prone skin and it cleared me up completely! My skin felt soft and supple and positively GLOWY. I really think this is IT!!!! Also, it took off all my eye...

I recently picked this up when I decided to seek out a sulfate-free cleanser. My skin has felt rather tight and dry lately, so I figured a milder cleanser was in order, particularly because I...

I am on retinoids so i needed a really gentle cleanser. Cetaphil was still making my face hurt so the lady at the kiehls counter in bloomies recommended this. Definitely a HG product for winter...

This cleans the skin but leaves it hydrated. It does not foam but is more of a lotion cleanser. I wash my hands and then apply a nickel sized dollop to my dry skin and massage in. Then I wash it...

I really like this product. It works well but is very gentle on the skin. It's not really a foaming cleanser more like a cream but i still like it. Would definitely buy this again

While this was very gentle on my skin and didn't break me out, it also did a poor job of cleaning my face. Luckily, it wasn't nothing a little toner could not solve. I would problably save it for...

This is basically the same as Cetaphil cleanser...the main difference is that this one has some apricot kernel and avocado oil in it. I am not sure why it is has "foaming" in the title as it...

I bought this on a whim, although the reason escapes me now. It sat in my beauty supply closet until the cold air started coming. My skin is normally pretty combo-oily and sometimes acne prone (I...

This product's name is deceptive. It doesn't foam at all, but it is certainly gentle enough for normal-to-dry skins. I sampled this some time ago, to see if it will help with my oily but dehydrated...

In general, an acceptable cleanser! It does not foam, but is more of a creamy cleanser. It's great for dry skin. The packaging is a squeeze bottle that I have had to leave upside-down in the shower...
