Most Liked Negative Review

Unwarrantedly expensive. Not for dry sensitive skin types.

This is marketed as an all skin types cleanser with apparently a noticeable enzymatic exfoliating property on account of the papain and pineapple extracts. I am a 50 year old woman with a tendency towards mild dryness and sensitivity on my cheeks and essentially normal skin everywhere else. Having t...wice washed my face with this product and having used many other high end cleansers I have to say I was disappointed. In spite of being highly concentrated (a single pump is enough meaning this product could last ages and ages) and thus amortizing of the very high price tag, and having a pleasant application, I didn't love the way this cleanser made my skin feel-slighly dry and irritated. The ingredients aside from the aforementioned ones are not remarkable (though there are some good and harmless ones like glycerin) and something about the product seems to be significantly throwing off the balance of the skin. This is not a hydrating or remarkably gentle product nor is the enzymatic effect very noticeable, which would be the selling point. Unfortunately, I could not sample any of lancome's foaming cleanser offerings in advance as I was considering the creme radiance version with three fairly impressive plant extracts. Overall I may still consider returning this product which is frustrating as I don't like making mistakes. The fragrance in this cleanser is noticeable though not overpowering but I also don't find it very special or luxurious. Save your money or spend a comparable amount elsewhere.
