Hydrating foaming cleanser balances oily and sensitive skin; may dry others.

This foaming cleanser has ceramides and hyaluronic acid to hydrate and soothe skin without stripping. It suits oily and reactive skin well but can leave dry skin feeling tight and dehydrated. Users with sensitive dryness may want to patch test first.
