    I mean I don’t know you, so maybe it wouldn’t matter, but the good stuff is built different. Like putting anything from a korean skincare store on your face is a completely different experience from the family-sized Walmart hand cream (their unscented one is not even all that bad tbh. But still a completely different experience)

      And that’s fair. I’ve only ever used the generic stuff you could buy at dollar general. I just don’t have high hopes because if it leaves even the tiniest bit of residue it’s like I want to crawl out of my skin.

        Totally recommend going to a fancy store and trying just a small sampler of the good stuff. Pick a spot that’s easy to scrub without damage, and just see if it feels the same.
        If it’s a bad time, then you haven’t spent more than the cost of the commute, and aren’t damaging your skin to scrub it off.
