I Tested 4 New Cleansers, and Here Are My Thoughts

I didn’t realize this before, but apparently, I can be a bit of  a cleanser snob. People often don’t pay much attention to cleansers, granted, it’s a product that usually only stays on your face for a minute (if that!) and then gets washed off the drain.
