I'm a bit confused by reviews. Can this be used in lieu of cleanser if you don't wear make-up? Thanks.

I used in tandem with my cleanser. It's not used in lieu of a cleanser. I use this every other day and it wmakes my skin feel and look wonderful. This is one of the best exfoliants on the market in this price range. The particles are very small and non irritating to the skin. I love it!

This isn't meant to be a cleanser. You use your regular cleanser than use this to exfoliate and deep clean after you cleanse your skin.

This is the only product I use to wash my face. I don't use any other soap or cleanser on my face.

i also use it with my regular cleanser and a few times a week I use it with an exfoliating scrub. I have prefer to put the cleanser on my face with my hands and then use the brush, rather than putting the cleanser on the brush itself.

I think you can use this for that purpose if you are using a wash cloth. I found that if I don't use a washcloth to remove make-up it does not do as good of a job. Regarding eye irritation, I have not had any and I am very sensitive. I rub it right on my eyelids.

I personally use it with a cleanser. I just mix the crystals in with some face wash in my hand until it forms a kind of paste, and then use it to scrub my face. I wouldn't use it on it's own. It's going to need some kind of binder.

I have to agree with Jessica, you can use it as your day cream (or) night cream. I use mine after the make up comes off. I cannot use under my foundation (I was a hot mess when I tried to) but if am not going to be out & about I use it as my day cream. This product is so amazing, anyway you use it you can't go wrong. Plays very well with other facial & beauty products. Smells heavenly too.

You definitely will not need a cleanser after using. Just rinse and moisturize.

I use it just with water usually in the shower and my cleanser before. I am sure you can mix it with your cleanser as well but I prefer to use it alone. Make sure you rinse really well. Do not use it with an exfoliating mitt on your face either. I happened to be using one on the rest of my body and also used it for my face as well and it took the skin right off my nose that was not a pretty sight (guess I got carried away :)). Oh well, live and learn. Otherwise, it seems to work pretty well.

I use it in my face when I go to swim or any outdoor activities , For me there is any problem even use it before my make up because is oil free finish, if you prefer a better finish for makeup I recommend the ultrasheer liquid, specially if your skin is very oily.

I use this before I put on my makeup because my make-up has a sunscreen in it . I would'nt recommend using it after make-up is applied. I haven't had to use a moisturizer with this.

Well, to be honest, yes you should use a cleanser before using this facial mask. Due to the fact that you'll start with a bare face and nobody wants to put on a mask, when you're covered with dirt and oils. So, it's just something you should do and rinse your face with warm water afterwards.

Hi, I only used it for eyelash extensions so can't really answer your question. But I do think you can practice makeup fairly well. I'm not sure about cleaning though

I put it on under my moisturizer in the morning before I apply makeup. Then use it again at night when I'm going to bed. My skin feels smooth the next morning. On weekends, I use it alone when I don't apply any makeup. My skin is not too oily so I sometimes need just a small dot of moisturizer with it. I love it!

I would say yes to under make up, as it works for to do so... but I absoluetly love it after a hot shower prior to bed. My skin is so much softer and I've been getting compliments on how youthful my skin looks! (And mind you I have normal skin, too.) Hope this helps!

I use it on cotton pads to remove tough eye makeup before I wash my face with Philosophy Purity cleanser. You could use it on cotton pads all over your face as a quick makeup remover but its not technically a "face wash". Hope this helps. : )

I'm not sure about wrinkles but I know it cleans your face very well. It does a great job removing make up and while I haven't used it as just a plain moisturizer on my face (I've always rinsed it off), I don't know why you couldn't use it as that. I have on many occasions, used it on my hands at night before going to bed as a moisturizer and it does just as good of job as anything else!

No. This is a great product. A little expensive, so I've recently switched to coconut oil. You just warm it up in your hands, no water, and massage into your face to loosen make up. Then rinse with soap and water. Works just as well and is a lot less expensive. Best of luck

Well it is a medicated cleanser. As long as you do it before toner it should be ok.Cleanse then tone, then moisturize. :)
