This is the third time I am ordering this cleanser. And it has been a favorite with my sisters too. My skin is acne prone and sensitive, and this did not break me out, and did not leave a stripping feeling. After a while of using, I noticed that my skin texture became so soft and that it became less irritated. Although it says mild, it's definitely effective. I don't know if it's effective with acne, but I am breaking out way less than before for sure.
The botanical scent threw me off at first, but I came to love it and it became rather soothing. All in all, I love this!
