| I want to find a nice gentle cleanser without harsh detergents and was curious about the new PSF cleanser. Any one use this and really recommend it? TIA! |

| Yes I do and I LOVE it! Its very gentle as the name implies, takes off eye makeup with out stinging and you can use the rich lather to shave legs, armpits--whatever. I also really love that the pump is calibrated to dispense the perfect amount of soap, about a large pea size. That's enough to clean your face, neck and chest since its so concentrated. And because its a 8oz bottle I think that you should get a lot of use for your money. I use mine after my cleansing oil, I have oily acne prone skin. Its not in the least bit drying though. I have always liked castile soaps but this is by far the best one I have used. |

Thanks, I'm happy you like it. I am currently using DY's Rosehip cleanser. I think I will try PSF's next  |

You were asking about the Gentle Castile, right? |

Yes that's right, I just don't want a cleanser that is harsh or causes breakouts  |

| I prefer PSF green tea cleanser. I have oily skin also and didn't care for the castile. |

I like this cleanser. Its very gentle and it gives a very thorough cleansing feeling after using.
Most of all, it is very good value for money. A bottle of it sures go a long way as you don't need much of it to foam and cleanse thoroughly. |

What other mild, gentle cleansers have you tried?
I already love my PC skin balancing cleanser and Pevonia RS2, but the PSF is more economical  . |

DY's Rosehip cleanser is really gentle and doesn't break me out, but I'm looking for a change... |

| PSF enzyme cleanser is wonderful for my oily skin. Cleans thoroughly, doesn't leave any kind of film and doesn't overdry my skin. Combine that with their micro face cloths and you've got a killer combination! |

Hmmm what is DY  ?
Athena---do you mean the papaya one? I dont really want anything for oily skin, just a mild cleanser that gets rid of makeup and sunscreen. Cos I find that strong acid-y cleansers seem to make my skin super dry then super oily! |

I totally agree with vonstella. This is my absolute favorite all time cleanser. I am oily and acne prone and was wary of the "gentle" description for fear it wouldn't clean completely. Boy, was I wrong. My face feels SO clean when I'm done, but not dry or tight. I can't believe how much rich lather one pump dispenses. It really is only like a large pea-size, but lathers luxuriously. I actually look forward to my twice a day face washes. Highly recommend. |

Thanks Fab!
I've added the PSF cleanser to my cart but  , Im still not sure whether I will actually go through it when it comes to it though.
I heard how people break out with cysts using castile soap! |
