Pre-cleanse
This product has been in my make up removing routine for years. I use this on my eyes and was amazed to hear that people use this all over their face to remove their make up! It is gentle and works well to remove make up.
Cleanser
Touted by many as their HG skin cleanser and that they will be lifetime fans, I love that this exfoliating wash comes with brightening power through beta and alpha-hydroxy acids.
There are so many strong and wonderful ingredients including: Salicylic Acid, Glycolic Acid, Sucrose Laurate, Vitamin C, Licorice and Lily Extract and Vitamin E.
My thoughts: The only downfall I’ve heard is that it can be a bit drying. Given that my skin is on the dryer side I plan to use this one at night.
Suggestion: Start using it 3 times a week, then slowly build up. You can also use this one at night and another cleanser in the morning.
Alternate option: If your skin is a bit sensitive then try out the Papaya Cleanser instead.
