Lancome Facial Cleanser Review

Inherited another skincare product from Yoshi (her skin is sensitive skin prone to acne, so it's picky).  I have combination skin!

Pros:  Adequately removes non-waterproof make-up, dirt, and oil/sebum

Cons:  Doesn't foam like a foaming cleanser.  Strong rose scent.

Verdict:  Will not purchase again, but may give to my mother (mature skin).

May Empties

What I used up in May:

After giving the Etude House Wonder Pore to my sister. I inherited and finished her Elizabeth Arden Hydra-Splash Alcohol-Free Toner

 I also finished the sample of Biossance Revitalizer.  I'll post an updated on my current skincare later, since I'm using a new toner and serum.
