Performs same as any drugstore product

Trying to justify the price point. Otherwise no issues but also nothing spectacular or anything.

Just OK

This formula is very thin and runny. It feels watery and smells a bit like a pool too. There is minimal lather, even when emulsifying vigorously between the hands. I needed to double cleanse to remove all of the day's oils/makeup/spf. It doesn't dry out my skin or make it feel tight though!

Do not like the smell

I purchased it thinking that it will have the same smell as a cream cleanser. I was very mistaken! To me this has a medicated smell which does not make a pleasant experience when using it. I am used to aromatherapeutic smells when washing my face, so I do not enjoy using it. It removes some makeup, but not completely.

Great for daily use

I like this product. Not super foaming. But it’s gentle on my skin.

Just not for me

I love this brand and have been using Simply Clean for years. I tried this one since I'm older now, but it was so thin it would actually slip out of my hands before I could lather it. Strange.

Great cleanser

This is my favorite glycolic acid cleanser. I’ve been using this product for many years now and love how it leaves my face feeling really clean. And refreshed. A little pump goes a long way too. Please do not stop making this product as it took me a long time to find it.

Purifying Cleanser Gel

I have very sensitive skin, with that said, I prefer a foaming cleanser. This cleanser foams up nicely and gives a fresh cleansing feel without drying out. Love this cleanser!

Buy this!

Having tried the new SkinMedica cream cleanser and having my poor MGD eyes burn. I purchased this, saw the online video last month, they are not lying . I have sensitive skin and extreme sun damage from living and vacationing on the beach for decades. Had melanoma. Now paying for Chemical peels done professionally and Facial Laser I have to be very careful. This is the best will not hesitate to repurchase again. Gave the other new cream to my husband who is not sensitive to anything rather than throw away !

My Dermatologist Recommended ... and she was right!

This works perfect for my 63 year old combo-skin. Not too rough but leaves my face so smooth. My doctor keeps up on "the best of" for all products, and she is a big fan of this cleanser.

Lovely cleanser!

This is my second time purchasing the Skinceuticals Purifying Cleansing Gel. My skin feels great after washing with this cleanser. It exfoliates, but is mild. My face is very smooth when I use it. Definitely one of my favorite products from this line. I highly recommend it and will purchase it again.

Excellent Face Wash

I bought this for my teenage daughter and it’s the perfect strength for her skin. I’ve also used it before and love how clean it gets the skin without stripping it.

10/10 recommend!

This is an excellent gentle cleanser that has worked wonders on my adult acne-prone skin. My skin is clearer than it has ever been using this product and Skinceuticals Silymarin CF.

Consistent Cleanser

After many years, I still believe this is the best cleanser on the market. Through skin changes, from dry, to normal, and oily, this has always been my "go to" cleanser for thorough, effective cleansing.
