I've been using this makeup remover for about 10 years. It's a cream type, but it blends in well, doesn't have a strong scent, and leaves my skin feeling moisturized after washing. This is the most soothing and gives a great feeling of complete removal. I use a dedicated remover for point makeup, but on days when I don't wear mascara, this is fine too!
I was looking for a good cream-type cleanser, so I bought this. It returns to bare skin. It doesn't dry out my skin at all, and it removes even heavy makeup quite well, leaving my skin looking its best. A point remover is needed for heavy eyeliner and mascara. What surprised me was that the white blackheads on my nose started to appear. I was surprised at how well it removed them. To remove them, you'll need an enzyme cleanser, though... The texture is smooth, so I was able to remove them with a spatula. I was a little worried about whether it was removing all the makeup while rubbing it around my face, but once I rinsed it off, it was clean. It sometimes remained in the crevices around my eyes and wrinkles, so I washed my face thoroughly afterwards. It removes makeup well for a cream cleanser, and doesn't dry out my skin at all, so I rate it highly.
It leaves your skin feeling moisturized, yet removes makeup thoroughly. It takes a little longer to absorb than oil cleansers, but oil cleansers tend to dry out my skin, and that problem gets worse as I get older. I'll keep using it for a while!
I have dry skin, so I bought this to try it out. The elastic cream seems gentle on the skin. I think people's tastes will vary, but I like the scent, so I'm glad I bought it.
I bought this at a drugstore and it's so good I'm buying it again. I like how it blends well with makeup, emulsifies quickly, and washes off easily.
