Thorough, non-drying, gentle cleanse
Paula Bergoun's books, from what I can recall, espoused a facial cleanser that can take off every bit of makeup. As much as I devoted myself to her findings, this was one thing I didn't believe in or even try. I have relied on cleansing oils, balms and, old faithful, Ponds cleansing cream before reaching for my facial cleanser at night. Honestly, this can make the prospect of makeup removal something to moan about at the end of a day when there's no romanticizing it as a relaxing self care ritual. So one night I just tried it. I splashed water on my face and thoroughly rubbed in a pump or two of this Vanicream cleanser and, maybe this is the trick, wiped it off with my wet bamboo washcloth before rinsing with water. I paid attention to rubbing off my mascara and under my eyes in the process and when I went over my eyes with micellar water there was barely anything on the pad. And when I went over my face with a toner filled pad, it came away clean. So, this is a great way to eliminate clutter in your bathroom and to save money. It also makes packing for travel so much less complicated. Yes, I will use a balm, oil or cream when I feel like it but I don't *have* to. Your mileage may vary depending on how much of a beat you wear, of course.If you need lather to prove a cleanser is working, this might not be for you. It has never stung and I haven't had any painful inflammation or sensitivity using it. It doesn't leave my skin moisturized but it doesn't strip it either. It's really a great buy.

Better than CeraVe for Eczema-Prone Skin, Packaging Needs Work
I switched to this Vanicream face wash after getting rashes around my eyes from the CeraVe Hydrating Cleanser. I have sensitive, eczema-prone skin. So far, the usual irritation and rashes after washing my face are gone. I also like that it doesn't leave a sticky, lotion-like film or that squeaky-dry feeling. Some cleansers I tried before cracked my laugh lines and caused blisters, but this one doesn't.One thing I should mention is that there was some leakage from the product due to a loose cap, even with the plastic ring protector. Unfortunately, it messed up other items in the same package. Wish Amazon can check to make sure the lid is tightly closed before shipping.

Perfect Cleanser for Sensitive Skin – Gentle Yet Effective
I have sensitive, reactive skin that often gets red or itchy with regular cleansers, so I was looking for something truly gentle. The Vanicream Gentle Facial Cleanser has been a great fit for me.What I liked:Very mild formula, no fragrance or harsh chemicals.My skin feels clean but not stripped or dry after washing.The pump dispenser is convenient and hygienic.Works well both in the morning and after removing sunscreen or makeup.What could be better:The texture is quite plain (no lather or luxurious feel). Some people might find it too basic.The 8 fl oz size is good, but a larger bottle option would be nice for daily use.Overall experience:After a few weeks of use, my skin feels calmer and more balanced. If you have sensitive skin and struggle with irritation from typical cleansers, this is definitely worth trying.⭐ Rating: 5/5 – Simple, effective, and trustworthy for sensitive skin.

Very nice
I have been using this cleanser for a long time and I am really satisfied. Using it in the morning can gently remove the oil secreted by the skin at night, and the skin feels refreshing but not dry. At night, I usually use makeup remover to remove makeup first, and then use this cleanser for secondary cleaning. It will not irritate the skin around the eyes or cheeks, and the skin will be soft, clean and comfortable after washing. Its push-type pump head is very convenient to use, and the dosage is just right every time, so it will not be wasted or spread everywhere.This cleanser performs very well in the daily skin care process. Whether it is cleansing in the morning and evening or cleaning after makeup removal, it is very gentle and reliable. If you are looking for a non-irritating and cost-effective cleansing product, I strongly recommend it!

Not bad, but didn’t work for my skin
I gave this cleanser a try after seeing so many positive reviews online. It definitely lives up to its name; it’s gentle, non-irritating, and has a clean, simple formula. I really liked that it doesn't have so many ingredients. Unfortunately, it just didn’t work that well for my skin.While it did remove surface dirt, I noticed my pores weren’t getting fully cleaned, especially around my nose and forehead. I started getting more blackheads than usual and eventually went back to my Avene Cleanance gel cleanser. It’s a bit more expensive, but it gives my skin the deep clean I need.This might work well for someone with very sensitive or already-clear skin, but if you need a bit more cleansing power, it may fall short.

Great product!
The first one I received was damaged in some imperceptible way and leaked all over my travel toiletry bag, but amazon replaced it quickly for me and I didn't have the same issue with the second bottle. Great, gentle cleanser and a convenient size for travel, especially a longer trip. Some of these travel bottles are way too tiny! My boyfriend has very sensitive skin and he didn't have any irritation. Would buy again as it's a great value.

Saved my damaged skin barrier.
Vanicream Daily Facial Moisturizer is great. It helped so much when I damaged my skin barrier. It really soothed my skin and helped with the irritation and redness. It's wonderful for sensitive skin, acne-prone skin, all skin types really. The Hyaluronic Acid and Ceramides hydrate and retain the skin's moisture. It's non-comedogenic, free of dyes, fragrance, masking fragrance, parabens, lanolin, and formaldehyde releasers. And it's also gluten-free.
