Incredibly drying & irritating, but doesn’t even remove spf from face
Fresh Soy Hydrating Gentle Face Cleanser 30 ingredients
So good for all skin concerns. Lightly scented, not harsh at all. Good as a makeup remover and cleanser. Does not burn eyes. Been using for 10 years and have yet to find something better.
Very gentle, and doesn’t smell strong. It wasn’t harsh on my skin. I got the mini version to try it, and it did not disappoint me at all! I will definitely recommend it!
