This cleanser is really gentle on the skin, I got acne prone skin and it never caused me any breakouts. I've been using it daily in the morning and my face feels fresh and clean after use. It also works just fine when paired with other cleansing products, I've lately been trying a 2-step cleansing with an oil based cleanser beforehand and this COSRX gel cleanser removes any oil that might have remained after I wash off the oil cleanser as well, leaving my face feeling super clean without feeling dry.
