Before getting this I had used a liquid cleanser that would sometimes get in my eyes and burn. This doesn't irritate at all. I pour a little on a cotton pad, and it does a great job getting off my mascara and the grime that has accumulated on my face. Quite often I'm too tired and lazy to wash my face at night. This product is so easy to use that I am cleansing nightly. It's quite refreshing and has a very mild, pleasant scent.
