"This is my go to facial cleanser and have been using it for many, many years now. It's really easy on the skin and its not hard to wash off. I don't break out when I use this cleanser. Sometimes, I use it as a shave cream too but don't use too much of it since this is really expensive cleanser."
"My face burned, cracked and bleed. It hurt. Menopause was not kind to my skin. Honestly, this and every other ultra calming product was so helpful. Twoish months in and my skin look about 5 years younger. Thank you Dermalogica."
"This is a gentle formula that really cleanses the skin, including stage makeup. It’s gentle to use nightly and leaves my skin soft and clean!"
"Love how beautiful this makes my skin"
"I pair this cleanser with a benzoyl peroxide face wash (“yay” for adult acne!). Along with Dermalogica’s Stabilizing Repair Cream, it does an amazing job of balancing and calming my skin, combatting the irritation and flakiness I’ve experienced with topical acne medications in the past. It also seems to bolster my skin’s ability to tolerate retinol. Good stuff!"
