I used the sample when my skin was sensitive, and it was so good that I decided to buy the full product. Maybe it's because I normally wear light makeup, but it removed it nicely. It also left my skin feeling moisturized and supple after washing, which was nice. I prefer scented products, but this is a product I'd like to keep on hand as it can be used safely when my skin is sensitive.
I use this to wash my face in the morning. I don't like how soaps that are too alkaline can make my skin feel rough, but I was looking for something that could also remove the oily feeling around my nose. Because it's a cream cleanser, I don't have to lather it up, and it doesn't feel like it removes too much, but it still gets rid of what I want to remove.
