CALM Ultra-Gentle Cleanser for Sensitive Skin, Calms + Soothes Redness, Daily Face Wash for Rosacea-Prone & Eczema-Prone Skin, Fragrance-Free & Paraben-Free, 6.7 Fl Oz.

OMG! This stuff is fantastic. It is so soft and gentle yet highly moisturizing. It smells lovely, too. 11/14/25: Just bought a second bottle. The first one was very difficult to squeeze one-handed to get a bit on a wash cloth in my other hand but I managed. This second bottle is totally IMPOSSIBLE to squeeze one-handed. I have to lay the cloth down and squeeze the bottle with both hands!! This bottle needs to be redesigned to make it function properly. I wish I had saved my old bottle so I could pour the new bottle into the old.

I just started using this a few weeks ago and my skin is now in the best condition of my life. After a very steep price hike in my typical cleanser that I refused to pay, I decided to try something different. I stumbled upon Paula’s Choice brand and saw all the great reviews so gave it a try. I have acne-prone sensitive combination both oily and dry skin (with big pores) so it’s hard to find quality products that don’t trash my skin with acne, or make me oily or dry. This cleanser really does the job well. It does NOT strip your skin at all nor does it leave any coating or residue whatsoever. The cleanser itself has the best texture ever and you feel so clean afterwards. It’s a tad pricy but it’s worth it because a little bit goes a long way and it lathers up real nice. For example, a dime sized amount can clean my face, ears, neck, chest, and back. The bottle is also decently sized. I am happy to have found this product and am going to continue using it and possibly trying other items from this brand.

Works great on my combination skin.

The way it slightly suds up, makes me think of a cheaper cleanser. There’s a slight scent but, again, making me think it was a knock-off. It’s true, a little goes a long way (not much more than a dime). I have sensitive, mature, rosacea skin. It doesn’t burn my face but doesn’t entirely wash off dirt and oil. I had to use it twice as long the next time. Only then was my face feeling clean.

This cleanser is certainly gentle and non-irrating and well suited for someone who likes a gentler cleanse with no drying, or skin surface dehydration. I would call this the Goldilocks of cleansers for me. It cleans while not stripping my skin. Highly recommend. Be sure to lather well with very wet skin. I typically wash my face in the shower and I make sure I gently but quickly massage my face in circles for about 30 seconds and then the cleanser has a really nice, slightly foamy, cushiony texture. Be vigorous but gentle! This cleanser has improved my skin.
