I used this when my skin was flaky. Because it's a milk, it felt gentle on my skin. However, maybe it's too gentle, because sometimes it didn't remove my makeup. So I stopped using it on days when I wear foundation. The scent is particularly strong, so I don't use it on my face, but on my body after applying sunscreen. It was just right.
I bought this because it was sold at drugstores and seemed suitable for sensitive skin. As a result, it is very mild and gentle on the skin, but it doesn't remove makeup very well. It's especially difficult to remove hard foundations and primers that adhere tightly to the skin. With loose foundations like Canmake's cushion foundation, it comes off when you blend it firmly into your skin. The good thing about it is that it doesn't irritate me at all. I have sensitive skin, but it doesn't sting my skin or eyes. It leaves my skin feeling moisturized after washing. I think it's good for people who only use gentle cosmetics. The packaging isn't tacky either, so it's easy to keep in the bathroom, haha.

My skin became quite sensitive in early spring, so I bought this product, which seemed gentle on my skin. It removed makeup normally. However, my skin is quite sensitive, so it stings. The scent also reminds me of perm solution, and although it's not bad, I couldn't continue using it, so I stopped using it after a week. I'd like to try it again once my skin has stabilized.
I've been using it for about a month, and my pores have become smaller. Honestly, sometimes it doesn't completely remove makeup, and I have to be careful, so it's a bit of a pain, but it seems to be working. I wonder if hot spring water is better? This was my first time using Avène, so next time I'll try water. I saw a YouTube review on April 25, 2025, where a beauty expert recommended using toner three times, cream three times, milk cleanser, and powder foundation for dry skin. After trying this three times with toner and cream three times, my pores became smaller, so I switched to milk cleanser. This is my second milk cleanser. I've used Covermark before. This time, I chose this one because it seemed gentle and I could buy it at the drugstore. I usually use a balm. My first surprise was that it smelled like citrus, like French cosmetics, even though I assumed it was fragrance-free. I had the impression that milk cleanser was difficult to remove, but I tried it with primer, liquid, powder, and eye makeup. It felt rough, but gently emulsifying it and rinsing it off removed the roughness. I wonder if it has a strong cleansing power? However, my cheeks feel more moisturized than the balm. I wonder if the balm removes eye makeup better? I'll try using it in different ways.
