Does it contain any special/beneficial ingredients?

Hyaluronic Acid: Helps the skin retain moisture.

Amino acids: Help strengthen the skin barrier and assist in wound healing.

What is the texture like?

I would describe the texture of this as a creamy thick gel that turns into a rich, fluffy foam in contact with water.

Is it scented?

This has a faint herbal, floral sort of "green" scent that smells very clean.  

 

My overall experience/comments on the product:

As you know, I'm always looking for a creamy, hydrating foaming cleanser and this fit the bill.  This leaves my face feeling soft, soothed, hydrated, and supple. It also does a pretty good job of removing face makeup when paired with a Foreo. Frankly I very rarely wash my face without the Foreo so I can't say how well it works without. I really appreciate that this has soothing ingredients in it. But that said, I prefer my cleansers be just a hair more hydrating so I don't know that I'd pick this up again but I am enjoying using it while I have it. 

Please let me know if you have any questions or comments.
