not what i thought [SEP] i have soft water at home so that may be the reason even though this cleanser seemed to remove makeup very well it did not rinse well my face felt slippery and i had to use my usual cetaphil to remove the cleanser residue it also did not lather at all making me think i needed a lot more than i thought i would need to wash my face ie about pumps per washing there is a foaming version of this cleanser but i think the poor rinsing will still be a problem i think i will go back to my cetaphil facial cleanser
