This cleanser turned my smooth skin into dry, uneven and dull looking skin. It was helping with the oil but but I couldn't get over what it was doing to my skin and I also started developing clogged pores. I rate this product a 0.

I love this face wash. It is gentle enough for my combination skin and i can use day and night without any type of drying out or irritation. I also love how it is reasonably priced and crulety free!

I absolutely love this cleanser. I use it every morning alone and with a washcloth in the evening to remove my makeup. It lathers just enough without drying out my skin. I have the large bottle and it has lasted me forever. Great price and my skin feels so clean and fresh afterwards. The smell reminds me of baby milk breath LOL but I don't mind :) I also use it once a week on my young daughters' faces and it doesn't bother them at all. The cleanser is perfect for my extremely oily skin.

My only regret is I didn't start using this (and the rest of my PC routine) younger. I can't say enough good things about this product so I'll just say this: if you have oily, acne prone skin, this and the Skin Balancing Invisible Gel will be your new best friend. If you want to add other PC products (like an antioxidant serum, the Radiance Mask, the Earth Sourced Toner, oh my god the 25% Vitamin C Treatment!!) please do but this and the Invisible Gel are literally life changing.

I use this at night and only need a quick rinse in the morning because my face still feels clean after a deep sleep. It takes off makeup without aggressive scrubbing and leaves my skin so so clean, my skin dries out after washing my face after but not with this wash. It actually leaves my face moisturized without making it oily.

I used to use Olay face wash on Paula's recommendation but it had the lid on the bottom and kept leaking out, wasting money. I decided to try one of Paula's cleansers as it was the next cheapest option that I liked. The big bottle lasts for almost a year with twice daily use and so is a great deal. I also like the cleanser better than the Olay because it rinses clean and doesn't leave a film. I really like the packaging as the top doesn't get messy. I have acne-prone skin and this cleanser hasn't given me any problem.

This cleanser works really well to remove makeup, but I was really surprised at how much it burns my eyes! I've used many different cleansers, but none have irritated my eyes as badly as this one...which I wasn't expecting, as usually Paula's products are so gentle. This leaves my eyes red and bloodshot. Not sure it's worth returning when we have to pay for return shipping...unfortunately, I bought the big bottle :(.

This product is excellent. I've been using it for years and my skin has greatly improved since using it. I had been getting acne blemishes in my late 50s. It truly is gentle and effective. For thorough removal of makeup, I will wash, rinse and repeat but otherwise I find it very pleasant to use (with one inconvenience I'm describing later). I use it with the Skin Balancing Pore Reducing Toner and I notice my skin texture and appearance are worse when I skip even a couple days. My only real complaint --which is the reason I didn't rate it 5 stars-- is that the bottle it comes in is totally wrong for the product. The cleanser is pretty thick and should come in a bottle that is easy to squeeze and stands upside down so gravity always has the product quick to dispense. So it is really slow and annoying to dispense once you've used only a third or so of the cleanser. The bottle it comes in can't really be stored upside down because the product then oozes into the empty spaces in the dispenser cap. What I've been doing is transferring it to a travel bottle, but I think Paula's Choice can do better.

I didn't have luck with this product. It didn't help control the grease and made my skin greasier.

like the formula - gentle yet still effective, use every evening after makeup removing with Clinique cleansing oil, and asked my boyfriend to use it as well, his skin improves after that
