Where can you get that? I don't think I've seen it anywhere!

For gentle, super-effective cleansing, I LOVE Cleansing Oils. DHC, Dermalogica (Its called Precleanse, but I stopped using the second cleanser ages ago, because this is so amazing by itself), and Shu Uemura (Which I haven't tried yet, but its next on my list) make amazing cleansing oils. You massage them on dry, then add water - they emulsify (turn into a light, milky emulsion) and rinse off cleanly. Not only do they cleanse effectively, but your skin isn't left dry and tight, but softer and smoother for it. I find that with one of these, I generally don't need makeup remover.

I have a new favorite! Control Corrective's Medicated Pumice Wash is AMAZING.

purity made simple, microdelivery both from philosophy and one from bare minerals isnt too bad either.  If you are looking for something gentle, go for purity! its really good and ive loved it for years!

I remember I used to use Purity made simple. It was excellent at taking off my makeup (mascara, too!) but I was horribly allergic to one of the ingredients in it. I used it for several months before I made the connection. I would break out several times a week with it. Well I moved on to Loreal 3 in 1 cleanser (the green one). It's so simple and it's pretty gentle. It's great for my oily skin because it cleans without drying out. I'm also using COALFACE from Lush. It's a charcoal based cleanser that totally removes oil from your face. It's not for everyone though. It can be superdrying but I haven't had that problem since my skin is an oil slick. It's been perfect when I use it every couple of days.
