    Need to Know

    Frequently Asked Questions

    What does this foam cleanser do?
    It is a velvety foaming cleanser that gently exfoliates while it cleanses, using alpha hydroxy acids and salicylic acid to lift away oil, makeup, and dead skin cells. It leaves skin feeling soft, smooth, and refreshed.
    Who is it best for?
    It is ideal for normal to oily skin. Its amino acid-based foam cleanses effectively while helping maintain the skin's natural barrier, so it refines without feeling stripping.
    How do I use it?
    Apply one to two pumps to damp skin, massage gently with your fingertips, then rinse thoroughly with warm water. Use it morning and evening, and avoid direct contact with the eyes.
    Can I use it every day if I also use acids or retinol?
    You can use it daily, but because it contains exfoliating acids, pay attention to how your skin feels if you are also using other actives. Space things out or reduce frequency if you notice any dryness, and always wear sunscreen during the day.
    Will it dry out my skin?
    It is designed to exfoliate and purify while keeping the barrier supported, so it should not leave skin tight. Drier skin types may simply prefer to follow with a richer moisturizer.

    This is a great cleanser - highly recommend. Leaves skin feeling smooth and clean - doesn't dry your skin,

    Linda T.

    Maria B.

    Nice lather feel. My face feels clean but soft. I like the controlled amount dispensed per use
