Foaming cleanser that strips makeup without burning rosacea-prone skin; YMMV.
What the community says
A foaming face wash with glycerin and feverfew extract that people use when they need makeup off without the tight, squeaky-clean afterfeel. It gets love from dry, sensitive, and rosacea-prone users, but some people have had contact dermatitis or neck redness.
