First I would like to kick it off by saying SORRY for being MIA. Its tough to talk about skincare when my skin is not acting the best. But, since it is seeing some improvement I decided to start again!
Purpose :
-a mild facial cleanser formulated for all skin types
-throughly cleanses skin and removes makeup
-pH blanaced to maintain skin's natural balance
-tested for safety and gentleness
How much I like it: 4 out of 5 stars
Pro:
-feels gentle but still cleans!
-doesn't "Deep" clean
My take on this product:
This is the go-to cleanser if you have sensitive skin. The ingredients for this cleanser is extremely mild and will not induce any flare-ups that you might get from exfoliating cleansers. I like to go for the gentle yet effective cleansers during "that time of the month" because anything with vitamin C or exfoliating ingredients just induces redness all over. The Kiehl's Ultra facial cleanser does the job for an everyday cleanser. But, if you are looking for the my-pores-need-to-be-squeaky-clean or to exfoliate your blackheads, this is NOT the cleanser. This cleanser is designed for everyday use that leans toward the gentle side.
Therefore, it makes a great cleanser for those with delicate/sensitive/aging/dry skin.

The gel-like-but-still-thick consistency makes it great for facial cleansing devices because it lathers into foam quite easily.
For its makeup removing properties: I cannot really vouch for that because I do not use heavy waterproof eye makeup but if its just for simple BB cream, it does cut the job! However, I recommend that you use it twice to make sure your pores are completely clean.
It's important to pitch in this comment: It does NOT do anything besides clean your face. If you are severely acne-prone and you are looking for this to reduce your acne, look else where. Of course, cleaning your face properly will help reduce breakouts. However, this cleanser is not meant to "heal" or "prevent" acne looking at the ingredients. I find it on the pricier end because it doesn't yield any super fanatastic results; nevertheless, you get a good amount of product to compensate for that.

How I use it: After using an oil-based makeup remover, I will put this on my clairsonic and apply this to my wet face. This will ensure that any makeup I had on from the day will be gone!
Bottom Line: Good cleanser for those who do not have problematic skin and are just looking for a good everyday cleanser! I would give it an A! I bought 2 already. But, I'm ready to move on because of my problematic skin is pushing me to find a cleanser that is suited for the acne and redness.
Let's end with: Finally, we must accept that our soul, although eternal, is, at this moment, caught in the web of time, with all its possibilities and limitations. Paulo Coelho
