Our number one preferred cleanser for in-clinic and homecare. Gentle Facial Wash is a paraben-free cleanser with 10% Glycolic Acid that jumpstarts skin cells, promoting the desquamation process and enhancing the penetration of skincare products. Glycolic Acid helps to combat aging, improve acne, even tone, and brighten the skin. This cleanser provides anti-aging and exfoliation benefits and is gentle enough to use on even the most sensitive skin.

How To Use

Why We Love It

  • Deep Pore Refinement: Formulated with 10% ultra-pure Glycolic Acid, it effectively dissolves the "glue" that holds dead skin cells together. This deep exfoliation clears out pores, prevents breakouts, and dramatically smooths out rough skin texture.+1
  • Anti-Aging Powerhouse: By accelerating cellular turnover, it helps reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. It "wakes up" the complexion, shifting it from dull and sallow to bright and radiant with just a few uses.+1
  • The Ultimate "Prep" Step: It is highly loved for its ability to lower the skin's pH. This creates a perfectly primed surface that allows corrective treatments (like the Pigment Brightening Serum) to penetrate deeper and work more effectively.
  • Balanced Botanical Formula: While it is a high-strength acid cleanser, it is balanced with Ammonium Lauryl Sulfate (a gentler alternative to SLS) and soothing botanicals. This allows it to deliver clinical-grade exfoliation without the excessive dryness or irritation often associated with AHA washes.

Key Ingredients

  • Glycolic Acid (10%): An Alpha Hydroxy Acid (AHA) with a small molecular size that penetrates deeply to exfoliate dead skin cells, smooth wrinkles, reduce the appearance of dark spots, and help combat acne.
  • Glycerin: A powerful humectant that draws moisture into the skin, ensuring the cleanser does not over-dry the skin and maintaining the skin's barrier function.
  • Ammonium Lauryl Sulfate: A common, milder cleansing agent (surfactant) derived from coconut or palm kernel oil that creates the foaming action to lift away oil and debris
