I really like this cleanser. It's nice to use with my sensitive, dry skin, and it doesn't leave me feeling squeaky clean, which is nice. I bought it on sale for about $5 CDN, so for a reasonable sale price, it's a lovely cleanser. I took one star off because it has a powerful smell of mugwort.
Its texture is like jelly, which makes it difficult to create foam and ended up using either too much or too little each time. It feels light and doesn’t irritate the skin. I find it a bit expensive, though. For reference, I have dry to normal skin.
