Key Ingredients :
Foaming cleansers are never for me and this cleanser touted as a gentle cleanser IS a foaming cleanser. Unlike others, this cleanser did not give me any taut or dry feeling, but I do feel a slight tight sensation on my hands, after cleansing. Not a good vibe.
It has a mild rose scent and is mousse-y and creamy in texture. It lathers easily and cleanse in a harsh way on my sensitive skin. I use it at night. On the first day of usage, my skin feels soft, smooth and clean. I was caught by surprise because my skin has never take well to foaming cleanser as my age climbs up.
On the 2nd day, my skin turns slightly red even though during cleansing, there was no tight feeling on the skin. On the 3rd day, the redness becomes more pronounced, around my nose and chin, which are the sensitive areas on my face. It was just horrible as the redness did not subside even till the following morning. I stopped using it immediately.
On the 4th and 5th day, my skin becomes flaky, rough and dehydrated even though I have stopped using it on the 3rd day. Horrible cleanser to the bin. I know there are many others who love the cleanser but its just not for me. So perhaps you may have better luck with it.
It retails at $89 for a 120g size. It scored 3.9 from 112 reviewers on Makeupalley.
