It’s amusing to see my 12+ year old post still floating around.

Not really, I'd call it sad!

I use Paula's Choice, also. This is the same gentle cleanser i use on my face. It rinses clean and leaves no residue. I'm really sensitive to any smells left behind and this leaves nothing. The only thing i usually wash with soap is my nasal pillow each morning. I find with distilled water my humidifier rarely needs cleaning and since i got a heated hose, the hose stays dry so I just leave it alone.

I use either baby soap or Ivory liquid. Both are unscented and rinse clean without leaving any soap film.

Absolutely true, if it is good enough for Mother Nature, it's good enough for me. It can even be funny at times https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W-PFiQ6sMyI
