Hydrating Cream Cleanser

Editor's Take
Lovely on dry skin and rough on clean-beauty purists, this cream cleanser earns its keep with Hinokitiol while leaning on very conventional PEG-style base slip.
Four-pillar formula scores
- Performance: 7.4 / 10
- Innovative Ingredients: 5.5 / 10
- Clean Standards: 1.1 / 10
- Formula Sustainability: 7.8 / 10
The Verdict
Positioned as a cleanser, formulated as a familiar drugstore base. Sustainability is Good, and the Hinokitiol gives the formula a more interesting antioxidant angle than the average cream wash. The clean score is the catch, with Propylene Glycol, PEG-6 Caprylic/Capric Glycerides, PEG-40 Hydrogenated Castor Oil, Polysorbates, and Phenoxyethanol keeping it far from strict clean-beauty standards. Worth it as a non-stripping daily cleanser for dry or reactive-feeling skin, not as a purist natural formula.
