I personally think this cleanser ticks all the things I want in a cleanser. It has a thick, rich, gel texture that has a lot of slip to it, and it feels so so nice on the skin. Despite the thicker consistency, it rinses off really easily without leaving my skin feeling greasy and gross. It doesn’t strip or dry out my skin and is enough for a single cleanse!
The Molecular Silk Amino Hydrating Cleanser is just a really good cleanser. It removes makeup effortlessly while still leaving my skin feeling hydrated, soft, and never stripped. The texture is luxurious, and it rinses clean without any residue. Perfect for anyone looking for an effective yet gentle cleanser that supports the skin barrier. Definitely a staple in my routine!
