This was one of the first cleansers i purchased when i decided to get serious about my skincare game and i initially used it as my second cleanser after using an oil cleanser from a different brand. (Had issues with said oil cleanser and its use was short lived) But for a couple months afterward, I continued on using this as the only cleanser in my routine for both AM & PM.
The directions of use said to use 2-3 pumps, but I found that it would almost immediately seep/absorb into my skin; I'd continually have to use a lot more product than recommended in order to get a decent coverage to actually cleanse my face. Even with that it didnt really feel like it cleaned my skin all that well either and didn't do a lot for general clogged spots and dirt. I also found that whenever i would rinse it off, it felt like a film was left on my face that i could never really properly rid of; no matter how thorough i was in trying to wash it all off.
I think it comes down to partly being the wrong product for me, but also having a super absorbent formula that can be difficult to work with as a cleanser. This may work really well for people who have sensitive dry skin with moisture absorption problems, Heck I'd even recommend it for people with those skin types/concerns! But for combination sensitive skin? i wouldn't suggest it. It doesn't do enough on the cleansing factor,(albeit rather gentle for some maybe but not in my experience) can add an unnecessary layer on top of oily skin & some may find the smell to also be Icky. It's scent is certainly...something, that's for sure.
I know this is a lengthy review from someone who's skin [unknowingly at the time] isn't suited for this product, but Someone out there with sensitive + combo or oily skin types may find it helpful when looking for a gentle cleanser. I hope this helps! :)

ITS SO MOISTURIZING.
For my might routine, i use this as my second cleanser and this cleanser acts as a compensate for the hydration ive lost throughout the day.
I have dry dry skin, and my skincare has creams , anything thick to hold my skin together.
What i noticed using this is that this cleanser is like a cream. It doesnt really emulsify until you add a bit more which is best for me, it felt almost like moisturizer.
THE SCENT IS SO STRONG IT HIT ME IN MY FACE BEWARE. SCENTLESS VER IS ON AMAZON
