This is the Rovectin Skin Essentials Conditioning cleanser with updated packaging. It's my go-to cleanser regardless of whatever skin troubles I have. It has a gel texture that turns into a very fluffy and silky foam. It feels very gentle and doesn't strip or irritate my skin. It always works wonderfully for me and I always make sure to have a bottle on hand.
