This is a must for me

I buy a new bottle every time one runs out since I began using it about 2 years ago. I have sensitive combination skin, and most things either break me out, turn my skin red, or are very drying. Well, not this! Effective and gentle, with a light, pleasant fragrance, I'm typically not too fond of fragranced products, but this is subtle enough to enjoy it. If you are thinking about buying this, you won't be disappointed.

In comparison to Sheseido Pureness this is terrible

I've been trying to chase down more of the pureness. I desperately want it brought back. This new "refreshing" is totally NOT! It has an underlying, stinky scent and a drying effect.

Best cleansing water!

I had little breakout from using a different oil cleanser (from a different brand too), so i switched to this cleanser. Gentle yet effective to remove make up and cleanse my skin. Another wonderful product from Shiseido

Gentle cleanser, pleasant scent

Tried this as an alternative to the Shiseido Cleansing sheets, which I also love. Really surprised that using this on a cotton square removed just as much makeup as the sheets did! It’s a very gentle cleanser and I love the light scent. No irritation to my sensitive skin. I follow up with a Shiseido cleansing foam and water afterwards. Could also be used on its own as a face cleanser when not wearing makeup.

I like Shiseido water-cleaning.

I like Shiseido water-cleaning. I use to used it for years, but I was sad that I couldn't find it for a while. I am very happy to see Shiseido Water Clearing again. When removing cosmetics, it erases easily and does not cause skin trouble. I recommend you to try using it.

Nice, but too light

Smelled nice and seemed like a good, refreshing product, however it was too light to remove my makeup. Had to wash my face a second time with different cleanser. I switched to the Extra Creamy Cleaning Foam, also by Shiseido, which I love.
