description
A gel consisting of a non-foaming formula that thoroughly removes impurities without drying the skin. Its papaya and grapefruit extracts contain exfoliating properties that help to remove the build-up which is the cause of blackheads and pimples. The gel lessens skin irritation, making it suitable for sensitive skin. Its oil-free, non-lathering gel makes cleansing fuss-free.

One of the worst cleansers I have tried. Very strong artificial fragrance. Also, it barely removes makeup and/or sunscreen. Is very good at stinging your eyes though. Does this also have dye in it?...

as others have noted, this smells "like a spa"...but that's a little more fragranced than I like for products near my face. Still, it delivers on its promise to not strip the oil , leaving skin...

I've used this for a couple of months, but I haven't noticed any difference with my skin. Feels kinda clean, but I had really high expectations on this one.

I know it shouldn't matter but I hate the way this smells. It's a really thick cleanser too.

Love love love this baby! For a dry skin girl like me I hate foamy cleansers which are super drying and my skin feels like sand paper till I moisturize. This is by far one of the best gel cleansers...
