While I’d struggle to justify a cleanser that falls into three figures (because, seriously, no), I would absolutely argue that cleansers are key to how the rest of our skincare behaves and therefore what our skin looks like.
I’ve heard certain skincare ‘experts’ and people who don’t take the act of face washing very seriously, argue that a cleanser is not that important – that we shouldn’t be spending very much on it because it only sits on our faces for mere seconds before being washed down the sink.
What is wonderful is when you get a great cleanser that (yes) cleanses, but also has added benefits – think brightening, declogging pores, smoothing skin textures – and does not cost the earth.
Sometimes, however, even a good concealer needs a little help, like the days when I am more tired than usual and a heavier discoloration peaks out around my eyes.
The gel texture, which I love, is not only refreshing, but unlike gel cleansers of old, it removes makeup and impurities without drying the skin.
