What the gurus are saying

Dr. Aleksandra Brown rates it highly; No BS Beauty is mixed; The Budget Dermatologist passed. The Budget Dermatologist: "This line also contains two cleansers which are fine but for the price I prefer more affordable options like Vanicream or CeraVe. I do not think that you should spend your budget on cleansers in your routine."

"This is an amazing product, really gentle, a well-formulated option, with 2% salicylic acid, lactobacillus ferment lysate to support the skin microbiome, and Avène thermal spring water for its well-documented soothing properties, together giving you the perfect cleanser. It will help control oil without stripping your skin, and it's also appropriate for sensitive, acne-prone skin that can't tolerate more aggressive formats."
