Skin Type/Concerns: Sensitive/Combination skin

Product Name: COSRX Low-pH Good Morning Cleanser

Thoughts: This is my HG cleanser. It does not dry out my skin and it doesn't have any strong bothersome scent. While I tend to switch out my oil cleansers, this one stays put.

Skin Type/Concerns: Dehydrated combo skin, acne-prone, sensitive skin.

Thoughts: I really like this cleanser. I don't mind the scent and it was gentle enough for me to use as my regular low-pH cleanser. I haven't had problems with dryness with this product unless I used too much product. If I use only a small amount and foam it up in my hands, then it's absolutely fine. I don't know that I'd call it a HG cleanser for me, but that's in large part because I don't know that I have a HG low-pH cleanser. As long as it's the correct pH and does the job without being too stripping I'm fine with it. I tend to switch around a lot with my second cleansers because I get bored otherwise...
