What the gurus are saying

Most gurus prize this cleanser for being exceptionally gentle and hydrating, with ceramides and hyaluronic acid that help restore the skin barrier and lock in moisture, making it a strong pick for those with sensitive skin or eczema. However, one expert found it stings the eyes and struggles to remove makeup on its own, though notes it remains affordable and functional. Those on the oily side may find it foams up enough to cut through oil, but anyone prone to eye irritation may want to patch-test first or apply carefully around the eye area.

"The Vanicream Cream Cleanser is brilliant. It's very hydrating, good for eczema. It doesn't have any other tyrosinase inhibitors to brighten the skin, but it's good if you have very dry skin."

"Vanicream Cream Cleanser is gentle for all skin types because it's gentle but it will also foam up if you're more on the oily side. It will remove the oil. Some of the key ingredients in this cleanser are things like ceramides which will help restore skin barrier and lock in moisture, hyaluronic acid to provide hydration and plump the skin, and amino acids which enhance skin hydration and support its natural repair process. If you are more on that extra sensitive side, Vanicream Cream Cleanser, hands down, your jam. Try that one."

"Vanicream Cream Cleanser is a gentle hydrating cleanser that's good in this category for people who have abnormal reactions to products. Cleansers are always going to be the most irritating part of your skincare routine because they are removing dirt and debris from your skin at the same time they can be disrupting to your skin barriers, so you want to look for gentle cleansers."

"The most basic I have been using is Vanicream Cream Cleanser. It burns my eyes, I'm not going to lie, and it doesn't get the makeup off great on its own, but it's not expensive and it does the job."
