How to use

1. Apply a small amount to damp hands and create a light lather.
2. Massage gently over damp skin, avoiding the immediate eye area.
3. Rinse thoroughly with lukewarm water and pat dry.

Frequently asked questions

Can this cleanser be used every day?

It is designed for daily cleansing, but frequency should follow how your skin feels. Reduce use if cleansing leaves the skin tight or uncomfortable.

Is it suitable for acne-prone skin?

It can suit blemish-prone routines, especially when you prefer a light gel texture. Skincare cannot replace professional advice for persistent or severe acne.

Should I use another exfoliant with it?

Introduce exfoliating toners or treatments gradually. Using several active products at once can make dryness or sensitivity harder to identify.
