| Does anyone know whether this would be OK for normal/dry skin? I want to use it during the warmer months when my skin is more normal. |

| I think it should be ok for your skin as i am presently using this cleanser. But it will deliver you a squeaky clean face , only you need a good moisturiser after that. |

This is GREAT product, balancing the skin's oily and dry areas. It has a light lather, is very concentrated, and removes all make-up too. Sweeeeeeeet! |

i used this for a while but had to move on to the essential cleansing cream (or whatever it's called) as the special cleansing gel was making my skin sooooo dry. i've got fairly normal skin, and at that time i would have called it oily but this just stripped my skin bare.

Me, too! but I can't say I absolutely love it, though. I don't find anything special about it. |

I have oily skin and I found the special cleansing gel really drying.
Just like it did with Kiwigirl, it stripped my skin completely.
I switched to the Ultracalming cleanser and that was a lot gentler for my skin. Couldn't say whether it would be mild enough for dry skin though. |

| wow, it's not only me that felt the special cleansing gel was very drying on the skin. If you are prone to dryness then i dont reccommend the special cleansing gel. It may be good in the summer season though. The Ultra-calming cleanser is good and doesnt strip the natural moisture away/. |

| I found it drying if I used too much, like I would with a cheapie cleanser. But if I used only a small amount, it doesn't dry out my skin even if I cleansed twice. |
