Im obsessed! This cleanser is more pricey than many others but is TOTALLY WORTH IT. I have rosacea and sensitive skin that is also acne prone. And this cleanser doesn't make me break out. It removes makeup well and is so gentle. I have bought it multiple times and refuse to use any other cleanser now. This is a staple in my skin care routine now, and my dermatologist totally loves that I use it. Alondra M · influenster.com

I LOVE this product for taking my makeup off!! A lot of cleansing oils don’t do a good job with removing waterproof mascara, but this is a nice and thick balm that does the job perfectly. You do have to rub it into your skin for 30-60 seconds to get everything off, and then I follow up with my cleanser and it has been working amazingly for me! It doesn’t clog my pores or make me break out, and it Stephanie C · influenster.com
