This cleanser caught my attention because it promised to be non-irritating and non-drying after use. I was intrigued when I saw it was suitable for very dry skin types in the product description. After trying it, I can confirm it's not bad for those with similar skin types to mine. The cream texture is quite rich, and there's hardly any foam. Despite using small amounts, it provides sufficient cleansing effectiveness for my daily routine, especially since I wear minimal makeup.
ConsWhile I didn't experience any blemishes during use, those without severely dry skin might want to consider this product carefully.

Perfect for very dry to dry skin types. There's a separate version for combination, normal, and oily skin. It's not overly drying, but I tend to feel dry even in summer, especially after cleansing! So I always use this moisturizing cleanser! My skin has been acting up lately, so I repurchased it. It's hydrating and less irritating.
ConsThe packaging is inconvenient. Sometimes it dispenses too much, and for someone with less hand strength like me, it's a struggle to use.
TipIt allows for a long, gentle massage.

I'm usually the type to get bored easily and switch products, but this one's different. I'm currently on my third bottle - one regular size and two jumbo sizes back-to-back. I've tried pretty much every cleanser out there, and this is hands down the best. I remember liking an earlier version years ago, but when I tried it again after a bad bout of dermatitis, it became my absolute holy grail. My skin used to feel dry no matter what, but with this cleanser, there's zero dryness after washing - just pure hydration. Other cleansers always left a subtle tightness, but not this one. And of course, no redness either. The cleansing effectiveness is also on point. Since my dermatitis, I've sworn off double cleansing with oils or micellar water. But this cleanser easily removes my mineral sunscreen and light foundation with just a bit of thorough massaging.
ConsIf I had to nitpick, the only downside is that it's a non-foaming milk type cleanser. You need to use quite a bit to cover your whole face properly, so it does get used up faster.
TipDepending on your skin type, this could also work well as a first-step cleanser in a double cleansing routine.

It seems mineral oil agrees with my skin, though everyone's skin responds differently to various ingredients. It effectively removes makeup and can even be used as a morning cleanser. Despite having dry skin, this leaves my face feeling smooth and not dried out after washing. I love you, Paula! Please don't reformulate this product. I'm glad it's now available on Naver Shopping's official store and Olive Young, making it much more convenient to purchase.
ConsThere are no downsides! What more can I say? In the past, it was a bit of a hassle to buy from the official website. Now it's great that I can use Naver Pay, earn points, and easily purchase it.
TipFor heavy makeup, I recommend using a lip and eye remover first to take off eye makeup. While this cleanser can remove eye makeup, it may sting if it gets in your eyes. Apply the cream cleanser to dry skin and massage it in, then add water to emulsify. Use the emulsified product to dissolve sunscreen, BB cream, or foundation, then rinse thoroughly. If you still feel residue, you can follow up with a foam cleanser, but I just cleanse again with this product. For morning cleansing, the instructions on the back suggest applying it to a wet face. So, you can wet your face first, apply the product, massage it in, and then rinse it off.

While I can't speak to its effectiveness on heavy makeup since I don't wear much, it works great for removing my everyday makeup. The best part is that my skin doesn't feel tight or dry after using it.
ConsIt's a bit inconvenient that it's not a pump bottle and you have to squeeze it out. As for the product itself, it's so gentle that I don't have any complaints.

Reviews by The Hwahae Testers undergo the same strict verification process as regular reviews, and if they don't meet our standards, revisions will be requested.Pros1. No dryness after cleansing I usually do a two-step cleansing with oil and foam, but my dry skin seemed to be getting drier. So I switched to a cream cleanser followed by a gentle cleansing foam or soap. I've been using Paula's Choice Cream Cleanser, and since changing my routine, I haven't felt dry at all. However, it doesn't seem to remove heavy makeup completely, so I do an additional cleanse when necessary. 2. Large size While it's a bit pricey, it comes in a large container. If you're using it alone, it'll last quite a while. I think the price is good considering the quantity and quality.
ConsThe inconvenience of having to squeeze the product out instead of using a pump dispenser.

My skin felt too dry after cleansing, so I tried this cream cleanser for dry skin, and I'm really impressed. It leaves my skin feeling less dry after washing, and I love that it's not a runny emulsion type but still feels gentle. I used to find Bio*'s product inconvenient because it was an emulsion, but this one doesn't have that issue. It's non-irritating, so I'd recommend it for all skin types from dry to oily and sensitive skin!
ConsThe price is a bit disappointing, so I opt for the more cost-effective larger size and try to catch it on sale.
TipIt's even better to buy during sales. I've added Paula's Choice to my KakaoTalk contacts so I can purchase when they're running promotions.
