Wish it was a bit more foamy. Feels like it doesn't really cleanse. Ingredients nice though. I like that the pH level is 5.0 (confirmed by ACO themselves). Smells horrible like old wine or something, I usually don't care for smell but this was strange. Another small thing, bottle is so narrow and too tall for any of my bathroom shelves. Even Cerave and Cetaphil cleansers with more amount of Show more

Good overall, but doesn’t work very well as a make up remover. A very little amount of product for such a price.
