Perfect for sensitive skin. The rose version tends to irritate (me personally) skin. Minimum ingredients (7) versus many other makeup removers I've seen, and good for hydration due to glycerin (for sensitive & dry skin.).

It Do Be Burnin!
I had previously been using samples of Simple Micellular water that were around 3 years old (Bad mistake- they were just what I had), which worked wonderfully. I tried this one instead because I could not find the one I was using when I went into Target. This left my skin stinging until it dried, which was usually 5/10 minutes. I kept using it for a few days to see if it stopped but returned it in the end at the advice of my friends.

It does such a great job as getting rid of whiteheads even from the first use after rubbing it on dry face for 60 seconds and rise it with warm water.
The only problem is that it has a bunch of pore clogging ingredients that might trigger acne, but using it once every time i get whiteheads on my nose had been working perfectly fine for me.
Overall, i don’t like double cleansing at all and i find it just an extra step in skincare routine
