Q: Is this a non-foaming face wash or does it suds up?

submitted by sarah - 7 years ago
  • A: It does become foamy.

    submitted bybezen - 7 years ago
  • A: It's creamy. So I wouldn't say it foams up so much, but it has a slip to it.

    submitted byjetstream - 6 years ago
  • A: I would definitely consider this a foaming cleaner. It makes the clean feel nice and deep.

submitted by Louise - 6 months ago

This face wash did not work for me . The cleanser and moisturizer broke me out so bad . I also read on Reddit that some people had the same experience. I just switched over and I already notice a difference.

Ive gone through so many clean ingredient cleansers & this is my favorite!! Ive read so many comments from people complaining about it not removing their makeup, duh it’s not a makeup remover. It will remove some makeup, but you should use a makeup remover then this cleanser.

By far my favorite facial cleanser. It has a generous lather and cleans gently, with no scent. Leaves no residue. Both my husband and I use this regularly. No need to try anything else!

If I stop using this wash something bad has happened to me. Smells fairly chemically but it's not bad. Consistency is good. However sometimes excess will drip on the bottle and make a sludge, I wash it off but it's just annoying.

Itchy reaction

Thumbs down graphic, would not recommend
RachelH - 2 months ago, Verified purchaser
My dermatologist recommended Vanicream lotion and I accidentally bought this instead. I used it once because I pumped it out before I realized I bought the wrong thing but even the one wash made my face super itchy for about 3 days before it started feeling better again. I wasn’t positive this is what it was at first but I’d made no other changes. After reading reviews I realize I’m not the only one with the same type of reaction. Long story long, I wanted to love it but will definitely not be repurchasing..

Best facial cleanser for my face, it’s gentle enough on my oily sensitive skin but strong enough to get the mineral sunscreen off my face. Does have a distinct “natural” scent, but doesn’t bother me.

Great price and great quality product. Gets your face clean but doesn’t dry it out. And no noticeable fragrance. My first bottle lasted a good 4ish months with 2x daily usage. If wearing make up I do recommend another pre cleanse beforehand, which is standard for most face washes.
