Great value for money. Love this Cleansing Foam. Works for my skin. I use it after my cleansing oil.

I have been faithful to this for years. Sure I’m more conservative than most because of my sensitive skin but this product just works and leaves me with no regrets. My dry, dehydrated, and sensitive skin has no complaints about this.
Cleans well without being stripping and you can get it at quite affordable prices these days, at least for size value. I think it’s even moisturising without leaving residue, I feel refreshed after using it.
I usually only wash my face at night but in those times when I also need it in the morning it isn’t bad in the short term.

I love how smooth this feels when I wash my face. It also doesn’t leave my face feeling tight or dry after washing.
