PRODUCT DETAILS

Here’s the little transformation: a transparent gel that lathers into dense, ultra-fine foam. This mildly acidic cleanser contains visible heartleaf material, giving the clear gel a naturally speckled look before it becomes a full lather.

At its core is a cleanse that removes excess oil and everyday impurities. Salicylic acid (BHA) and gluconolactone (PHA) help gently clear accumulated dead skin as you cleanse. The dense foam is also designed to cleanse makeup in one wash, making it a versatile choice when your routine calls for more than a basic face wash.

Comfort gets a place, too. The formula is designed to help retain moisture and reduce dry or tugging sensations after rinsing, while heartleaf powder and extract bring soothing support to the cleanse. It’s intended for all skin types, with particular appeal for sensitive, acne-prone or oily skin. It’s also fragrance-free and vegan certified.
