What the gurus are saying

This cleanser draws mixed takes from the gurus who tested it. Some found it gentle and inoffensive but not standout enough to choose over other options, while others appreciated its creamy texture for the colder months. However, the broader message from experts is that you do not need to spend much on a cleanser at all, a drugstore option will do the job just as well, so this one may not be worth the higher price tag.

"I like that one but it's not an absolute favorite for me. It's not too intense or harsh of a cleanser, but I just kind of feel like there are cleansers that I personally like more."

"I don't recommend spending a lot of money on cleansers. Seriously, just find one from the drugstore because you're literally throwing money down the drain."
