      Gamechanger

      My skin is very sensitive and i have Rosacea so i have to be careful what I use. This cleanser leaves my skin feeling clean but not stripped and dried like a lot have in the past. It also has cleared up quite a bit of the Rosacea in only a few uses. Would definitely recommend.

      Fantastic cleaner

      Love the way this cleanser goes on and the way it feels. Feels like washing your wash with a silk cloth and leaves my skin feeling so soft!

      Too long to receive

      I am still waiting to try this. My review is concerning the shipping. It shouldn’t take over a week to ship from Texas to New Jersey. This store needs to improve shipping. Every order I place takes sooooooo long to receive.

      Great cleanser

      I love this cleanser ! Does not dry out my skin at all, i actually look forward to washing my face. You don’t need much at all so it does last a long time which justifies the price for me, I’d rather use something that really makes my skin feel great then spend money on multiple different products to find the right balanced cleanser. I’m hooked on Renee’s product line, skin has never felt nor looked better !
