Formulated with Micellar Technology to gently yet effectively remove dirt, makeup and impurities, plus a dermatologist-backed blend of niacinamide (vitamin B3), panthenol (vitamin B5) and hydrating glycerin to reinforce the skin's natural moisture barrier. Defends against 5 signs of skin sensitivity including dryness, irritation, roughness, tightness and a weakened skin barrier.

    Meh. A mild cleanser that didn't do anything for my pores. I like the pump dispenser and that you can 'lock' it shut but next time I would go for something a bit more effective for my face. Would...

    I don't know why this is called a "gentle" skin cleanser when it stings my face and i attribute the stinging to its alcohol content. Keep in mind that this also contains SLS. Not good for...

    My doctor recommended this to me for my acne prone skin. I used it twice a day, as a wash in the morning and leaving it on in the evenings. While my skin felt soft when using it, I can't say it...

    I think this is too slippery for my taste. As I haven't gotten a good clean of my face. Very mild gentle cleanser though. I prefer cleansing foams and salicylic acid cleansers.

    This product is something I would only recommend if your skin was extremely sensitive. It didn't do much for my skin. The texture and scent just reminded me of a hand soap and not a cleanser. It...

    I really do not like this stuff. I doesn't feel like it does anything for my skin! It barely even cleans it. This product is just an absolute NO.
