With a gentle yet power-packed formula that’s especially well suited to oily and acne-prone skin, this water-based gel cleanser, free from 19 potential irritants, effortlessly lifts away makeup, impurities, fine dust, and excess oil, giving your skin a clean, fresh start at the beginning of everything routine – and all without any hint of dryness or irritation!
Infused with Chestnut Inner Shell Extract, known for its astringent tannin content, the formula works wonders for pore care while refining your skin’s tone and texture.

Ingredients
Capryloyl Salicylic Acid (LHA): This mildly acidic ingredient promotes cell turnover, decongests pores, and smoothes the surface of the skin – great for combating breakouts.
Castanea Crenata (Chestnut) Inner Shell Extract: Long used as an ingredient in East Asian cosmetics, Chestnut Inner Shell Extract helps to minimise the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles by firming and hydrating the skin, soothes inflammation, and smooths skin texture.
Madecassoside: Derived from Centella Asiatica, Madecassoside helps to reduce inflammation, soothe dryness, and protect skin against the harmful effects of free radicals.
8 Types of Hyaluronic Acid: Famous for its hydrating properties, Hyaluronic Acid pulls water from the air into the top layers of your skin to keep it moisturised and looking dewy.
