Amazing product for such a great price! It works on every skin type without causing any breakouts nor irritation. It leaves my skin clearer than any other gel cleanser i've ever tried, even melting waterproof makeup but without striping my skin at all. The only thing I dislike about it, it's the way it's advertised: It really makes you think it's an oil cleanser not only because of the writing in the bottle, but also because of the yellowish color (which is just a tint on the plastic, the product inside is transparent watery gel). But I don't mind it because it does such a great job that you could use it to substitute both your oil and water cleanser, turning two steps into one. Perfect for the days you're in a hurry and don't want to go with the full double cleansing method.
