Love it!

by Sabrina [Verified Reviewer]

Pros: Balances Skin, Gentle, Moisturizing, Smells Great

Describe Yourself: Brand Buyer

Best Uses: Combination Skin, Daily Use

Bottom Line: recommended

I have combination skin, spots on my cheeks tend to get dry and my T-zone gets oily. But, this face wash is gentle and helps keep my skin moisturized but not greasy feeling, while still keeping my face blemish free! The smell is bright and citrus-y, just like a fresh peeled orange. For the first time in a long time, I've found a face wash that I am loyal to. In fact, I think the next thing I'll try is the moisturizer in this line.

Pros: Gentle, Moisturizing, Smells Great

Cons: Doesn't Remove Makeup

Best Uses: Dry Skin

Bottom Line: not recommended

I love the smell of this cleanser but it feels like lotion instead of cleanser. It feels like it leaves a film on your skin. I have semi-dry skin that is sensitive.

Soft on the skin

This face wash doesn't lather but still cleans pretty well. It doesn't dry out my skin and I like the feeling I get after I use it. I recommend it.

Gentle, Great Smell, Effective Clean

by Beauty Buff [Verified Buyer]

in Annapolis, MD on 1/12/09

Pros: Deep Cleans, Gentle, Leaves Clean Feel, Removes Make Up

Describe Yourself: Budget Buyer

Best Uses: All Skin Types, Daily Use

Bottom Line: recommended

I bought this brand and the BWC brand after reading some reviews. I like the fact that both were in a pump and there is less wasted product (versus the Jason brand). This is a white creamy cleanser with a light to medium feel to it. When you rub it in and on, you get no foaming action. I think it smells better than the BWC brand if smell is important to you. Regardless, this product leaves my skin feeling clean without feeling tight. Note that I do use a separate eye makeup remover. I don't know if this cleanser alone would get that type of makeup off without losing its gentle quality. My husband, who has very sensitive skin, is using it right now too and I haven't heard any complaints from him!

Great as a makeup remover

by Ella Bella [Verified Reviewer]

Pros: Gentle, Removes Make Up

Describe Yourself: Brand Buyer

Best Uses: Daily Use, Dry Skin, Sensitive Skin

Bottom Line: recommended

At first I hated this product because of the texture. Then I tried using it as a makeup remover and it worked wonder. I applied it over my entire face (my eyes, as well) and then wiped it off with a tissue. Rinse with warm water and follow with your normal facial wash! It is very hydrating, the smell is very mellow, leaves skin soft. Also great for removing acess hot wax.

Would be better if it actually cleaned

Pros: Gentle

Cons: Ineffective

Describe Yourself: Quality Oriented

Best Uses: Dry Skin

Bottom Line: not recommended

I really like the smell and feel of this cleanser, and I love that it has Vitamin C and is natural. Until recently, I probably would have rated it at least 4 stars. But when I was on a trip recently, I washed my face in a bathroom that had white towels. (My bathroom towels are dark grey, which is why I probably never noticed this before.) I was amazed at the amount of dirt and make-up left on my skin after washing my face twice with this cleanser. Too bad too, since I really liked it up until then...

I really like this cleanser! It smells great and gets my face very clean without drying my skin. I could see how it might be too strong for very dry skin, but it has worked out well for me and I am somewhere between normal and dry.

I have extremely dry skin. This cleanser does dry out my skin very badly. I won't purchase it again, but it does make your skin smooth.

I like that this cleanser isn't drying, but the smell is a big turn-off. To me, it doesn't smell like oranges, but rather a stale medicine cabinet. I'm using up the bottle I bought, but definitely will not repurchase.

At age 45 and still having breakouts from time to time, glad to find this product. After using for a few weeks, I noticed great improvement in skin clarity. After a month, skin texture improved and oil patches normalized (not dried out). By switching to an organic product, I noticed an improvement with my dry eye problem.
