Pharmaceutical Specialties Liquid Cleanser Sensitive Reviews Summary

Sensitivity and Skin Conditions

Pros:

• "Great for sensitive skin especially with it being Rona season and you need to be constantly washing your hands."
• "I have always had sensitive, acne-prone skin. A dermatologist recommended this face wash to me since I was using a topical treatment for acne that cannot be used along with any harsh cleansers."
• "This is a great product for sensitive skin. It is not harsh on your hands like typical soap products."
• "I would recommend this soap to anyone who has sensitive skin."
• "Vanicream is known for it's quality, inexpensive cleansers and this one does not disappoint."
• "It's super gentle, doesn't irritate, doesn't smell too strongly, doesn't leave a residue."
• "The only facial cleanser I can use that doesn’t cause breakouts."

Cons:

• "However, if you have a cut, this stuff makes you painfully aware of it."
• "IT GAVE ME THE BIGGEST RASH ON MY UPPER BODY and everywhere where your skin is sensitive!"
• "Totally broke me out with itching and increasing the bumps that are always on my arms."
• "But it is not gentle, nor moisturizing, nor soothing. My hands come out dry and leathery after washing with this."
• "Unfortunately, this bottle must have a different formula because it BURNS my private parts."
• "Very irritating to my skin on my hands."
• "This stuff makes my skin really greasy."

Fragrance and Chemical Sensitivity

Pros:

• "I cannot tolerate fragrance due to my asthma and this product was the only one I could find that was unscented and clear in color."
• "This product had no scent or colors, which is great."
• "For anyone with fragrance allergies this is a fantastic product."
• "It is definitely unscented, my hands are very soft and smooth."
• "There is no scent and it is non-comodogenic!"
• "It works brilliantly! As is, the thickness of the liquid is perfect, it doesn’t sting on sensitive areas, and there is no scent whatsoever."
• "Another wonderful unscented product from Vanicream because it does not have cocamidopropyl betaine (a/k/a coco-bet), to which I am highly allergic."

Cons:

• "Has smell that triggers my rhinitis. sinus congestion, cough, headache, etc."
• "The only thing that may become a deal breaker later on is the scent. It’s not supposed to have a fragrance but the scent it does have is not pleasant to say the least."
• "I can ever so faintly smell something other than just skin if I put it right up to my nose but it’s really not bad."
• "The scent isn't anything spectacular, but it's not bad. It just smells like... soap."
• "Has faint smell straight out of the bottle but doesn’t stay on your hands."

Packaging and Dispenser

Pros:

• "I really appreciate that the bottle was wrapped in plastic for shipping, to avoid any spills; mine arrived in perfect conditions."
• "The packaging is functional and straightforward, with a pump dispenser that ensures easy and mess-free application."
• "The dispenser bottle is good, with only a small push being needed to dispense the soap."
• "I love the pump, it's just slightly firmer than typical soap pumps which helps me use only the amount I need."

Cons:

• "The only room for improvement I see is making the pump a little less resistant."
• "I'm not sure if this is something I did wrong, or I got a defective product, but I COULD NOT get the pump to work."
• "But the pump did not work from the onset."
• "Good soap, but the tip part of the soap pump was broken when we got it."
• "I was sent a defective product (broken nozzle)."
• "The pump is difficult to use and requires a lot of force to work not to mention that it’s only 8 ounces."
• "The soap itself is good, but it is very thick and the pump doesn’t work on any of the bottles."
