This cream wash does two things I have NEVER experienced before! 1, It's a cream cleanser...that actually cleans!!! After I wash my face I my skin isn't left with that creamy, almost waxy layer I've experience with products way more expensive than this wash. 2. I don't have to run for my face cream to stop my skin from cracking after I cleanse! I have extremely dry skin and Johnson's seem to have struck a fine balance here. My skin is also rather sensitive, and I expect any product that thouroughly cleanses my face to strip cause some sensititivity...NOT THIS ONE! :) I'm happy to say I've tried, tested and love this cleanser! PS...It smells great!
