What the gurus are saying

This cleanser leaves skin drier than you'd expect from its hydrating ingredients, which catches people off guard. It's thick and sticky to rinse off, and while it does cleanse effectively, the results feel less dramatic than the formula suggests, most of the visible improvement comes simply from having a clean face rather than from the product itself working overtime.

There has to be something visually appealing about it... [...] it's not bad. I didn't It's not bad in any way. Does my skin look clearer after? Yes, but I feel more so because I've just cleansed."
