What the gurus are saying

Manuka honey and a hydrating formula leave skin noticeably more hydrated after washing, gurus call this almost unheard of in the market. The honey helps prevent acne-causing bacteria while calming and soothing, making it work for acne-prone and sensitive skin alike. Reviewers especially recommend it for dry types who typically struggle with gel cleansers. It's versatile: use it on dry skin to remove makeup or on wet skin as a second cleanse.

    "This is a beautiful cleanser. It's a creamy cleanser. It just leaves my skin super hydrated. Absolutely no irritation. If you have sensitive skin, dry skin, this is an amazing cleanser. A wonderful new find. Absolutely love it. Super surprised. I didn't have any hope for it and I didn't even think I was going to try it because it just isn't something I've heard about and I wanted to review cleansers that you may have heard about kind of some of the popular more trending ones. But you know what?"

    "I've purchased this one probably close to 10 times. It's the PSA Reset Nourishing Cleanser with AAI and manuka honey. [...] This stuff's really nice, no scent to it. You can use it as a one-step makeup remover cleanser or you can use it as an evening cleanser. If you use it on wet skin you can use it either way, and it gives you a little bit of a light lather to it, which is really nice."

What I love about this is you can use it as a makeup remover for reasonable makeup, like foundation and powder and sunscreen it does a great job. You just put it on dry skin, smooth over your skin for 30 or 40 seconds and then rinse it off, or you can put it on damp skin as a second step cleanser or just a general cleanser like in the morning and it does a great job. It's pretty affordable."

    What the evidence says.

    Independent of what the gurus think, this is what the published research supports about the main active ingredients here.

    Alpha hydroxy acids

    Alpha hydroxy acids loosen the bonds holding dead cells at the surface. The evidence supports smoother texture and more even tone over time, and they can leave skin more sensitive to sun.

    Vitamin E

    Vitamin E is an antioxidant, and it is often in a formula to keep the other ingredients stable rather than as the active itself. It pairs well with vitamin C, though on its own the evidence for visible change is limited.
