Bought this Drunk Elephant Beste No.9 Jelly Cleanser about a year ago. This expensive cleanser costs S$46 from Sephora. It contains 150 ml of product, which lasts about 6 months with daily use. Note: I only use the Drunk Elephant Jelly Cleanser at night. 

This cleanser has been on my wish list for a while. It is expensive compared to other cleansers on the market. Drunk Elephant Jelly Cleanser claims to remove all traces of makeup, pollution, oil and grime without irritating the skin. It is free of SLS, fragrance and essential oils. The Jelly Cleanser has a P.H of 5.5 which would not strip the skin. This sounds perfect for those with sensitive skin, like me. 

So what are my thoughts on this Drunk Elephant Jelly Cleanser?
Drunk Elephant Jelly Cleanser is a transparent gel that creates a nice foam.  It works well for my sensitive combination skin. My skin does not feel tight or dry after use. 

The gel texture reminds me of Avène Soapless Foaming Gel. Even the scent is reminiscent of Avène Soapless Foaming Gel The difference is that Avène Foaming Gel contains thermal spring water which is targeted for its soothing properties. In terms of costs, Avène Foaming Gel comes  in 120 ml packaging, and costs $32.60. For comparison, Avène Foaming Gel costs $0.27 per ml while Drunk Elephant costs $0.31 per ml.
