My skin is incredibly sensitive - it reacts badly to perfumes, essential oils, most preservatives (including the natural ones) and even the emulsifiers used to bind products together. I have tried many cleansers and this is one of the very few that does not irritate my skin. It also works incredibly well at removing mineral sunscreen (I use Invisible Zinc) which can be difficult to clean off. I take a hazelnut sized blob, massage it over my face, wipe it off, repeat this process again and then rinse with water. It really melts make up and sunscreen products and leaves the skin clean and soft. I would really recommend this product to anyone struggling to find a cleanser that does not strip or irritate their skin - it has been a fantastic discovery for me.
