I received this as a gift from Suzykirei. It's a non-foaming gel face wash. I use it to wash my face in the morning (I also use it to remove makeup in the morning). My impression is that it's just right. (This may be because the face wash I was using before was good.) The texture is soft and spreads easily on the skin. It seems to take a while to rinse off, leaving no residue. I don't feel dry after washing my face. I haven't noticed that my makeup has stayed on better yet.
I use it to wash my face in the morning. After washing, it feels like a layer of oil has been applied to my skin, leaving it feeling even and smooth. As the name suggests, it's perfect for applying before makeup.
I received a sample at the store and tried it, and it left my cheeks feeling soft and smooth, so I bought the full product. It smells great and I feel happy washing my face in the morning. It doesn't leave my skin feeling tight, removes any roughness, and makes my makeup go on so much better. I can't live without it. I'll definitely be buying it again!
