description

A foaming gel face wash is ideal for removing excess oil, dirt, and makeup. When choosing a facial cleanser for normal to oily skin, it’s important to look for a formula that's gentle, won’t disrupt your skin’s natural protective barrier (which can leave skin feeling dry or tight), and contains ingredients that help maintain its moisture balance.

This was my HG cleanser. I fell in love with the gentle yet effective way it cleaned my face, heavy make up or no make up days. I used it for over a year and went through two bottles. I...

I have tried so many cleansers over the years, and this is the only one that has effectively gotten rid of the makeup and oil off my face without drying it out as it states on the bottle. It foams...

The dermatologist recommended this. I can see why. My irritated, oily skin has not been this well behaved in _decades_. It's a little flaky right now, in the dry winter indoor heat and outdoor...

I'll start by saying that I think calling it "foaming" is misleading and might put some people off. It doesn't foam, which I LIKE. Foaming cleansers strip the skin too much. I have sensitive skin...

This a great cleanser for oily/combo skinned people. The formula isn't harsh or drying, and leaves your face feeling refreshed and anew. Would recommend and buy again (even though it's a bit pricey)
