The back of the bottle says this cleanser is soap free, parabens free, and gas free, and while I don't understand the last of these claims at all (no gas? what gas?), from the ingredients list I see that it does not contain any parabens or sulfates. It is indeed a very mild yet effective cleanser, and despite the "instant foaming" in its name, it actually doesn't foam much at all, much like The Body Shop Aloe Gentle Face Wash. Sure, a pump does produce a bit of foam, but the foam is rather thin and dissipates quickly. When the cleanser is being massaged into the skin, there won't be much foamy action and if this is what you're looking for, you won't get it with this cleanser.
However, it doesn't mean this cleanser can't cleanse well. It does, and I like it a lot! The scent smells more like fragrant cucumber than grape, but I don't mind it so much ^.^ Just that this tiny 50mL bottle retails for $14, and while that doesn't sound much, only 3 weeks' worth of nightly use already zipped through 2/3 of the bottle! So I'd say it's a bit expensive when purchased individually, which only make this Caudalie Favorites Collection all the more of a great deal!
