-Verdict: Really nice texture, probably geared towards oily skin that is non-sensitive to fragrance. Not hydrating enough for my dry skin, but does work well under another thicker moisturizer. Must admit, I did not find this to be very calming or help with redness.

Living Cleansing Balm, $38
-An Affordable alternative is the Jordan Samuel After Show Treatment Cleanser (as well as Hanskin Cleansing Oils)
-No denatured alcohols
-Does contain fragrance from Grapefruit Peel Oil, Rosewood Oil, and Rosemary Oils
-Beneficial Ingredients: olive oil, grape seed oil, sea buckthorn oil, babassu oil, vitamin E
Acnegenic ingredients olive oil, Orbignya Oleifera Seed Oil
Verdict: This does a good job removing sunscreen, makeup, mascara without leaving skin feeling dry. Doesn’t bother my eyes. Definitely needs to be followed up with a second step cleanser because this does have a tendency to leave a bit of residue. For the price I wasn’t blown away…

- No denatured alcohol
-Does contain fragrance/aroma
-Beneficial Ingredients: synthetic wax, melon fruit, sodium hyalyronate, avocado oil, squalane, lactic acid, vitamin e, olive fruit oil, sodium ascorbyl phosphate, honey
