This creamy, low-pH cleanser is formulated to provide a gentle and soothing cleansing experience, especially for sensitive skin[cite: 2133]. [cite_start]It uses a high concentration of Centella Asiatica, known for its anti-inflammatory properties, to calm irritation and redness while effectively removing impurities[cite: 2133, 1455]. [cite_start]The rich, creamy lather cleanses without stripping moisture, leaving your skin feeling clean, comfortable, and protected[cite: 2133].

Best for: Sensitive, irritated, and acne-prone skin types[cite: 2133, 1390].

This cleanser is the foundational first step of any routine to prep your skin for treatment:

[cite_start]
• 1) This product — use a pea-sized amount to create a rich lather[cite: 2133].
• 2) Tone & Treat — use your toner and/or serum of choice.
• 3) Moisturise & Protect — seal and protect with moisturiser and sunscreen (AM).

Note: Already own a similar step? Finish that first (substitute, don’t stack).

As a gentle cleanser, this product is suitable for both morning and evening use. A morning cleanse helps remove excess oil and sweat from the night, preparing your skin for the day's products.

[cite_start]
• 1) This product — cleanse your face to prep your skin[cite: 2133].
• 2) Hydrating Toner/Essence (optional; adds slip) → 3) Moisturiser — seal & protect.
• 4) Sunscreen SPF 30+ — always the last step.

Wait times: 30–60s between watery layers; 1–2 min before SPF/makeup.

This cleanser is a crucial first step in your evening routine, especially for removing makeup, sunscreen, and daily pollutants. [cite_start]You can also use it as the second step in a double-cleansing routine[cite: 1233].

• 1) Cleanser (if makeup/water-resistant SPF: oil → water) — use this product as your water-based second cleanse.
• 2) Targeted Serum — use an acne-fighting or hydrating serum.
• 3) Moisturiser/Oil — apply a non-comedogenic moisturizer to lock in hydration.

Daily Use — AM/PM:

• Amount: A pea-sized amount.
[cite_start]
• Apply to: Your face and neck[cite: 2133]. Avoid the immediate eye area.
[cite_start]
• Method: Dispense a small amount onto your palm and add a little water to create a rich lather[cite: 2133]. Gently massage onto your face in circular motions, then rinse thoroughly with lukewarm water.
[cite_start]
• Frequency: Use morning and night[cite: 2133].
• Wait times: 30–60s between watery layers; 1–2 min before SPF/makeup; 5–10 min before heavy oils.

Dosage quick-table:

• Cleansing Foam: pea-size for face; + [cite_start]half-pea for neck[cite: 2133].

If-This / Then-That:

• Very oily T-zone? This product is more soothing than oil-controlling; follow with a toner to manage excess sebum.
• Sensitive/reactive? [cite_start]This formula is specifically designed to be gentle and calming[cite: 2133].

Watchouts: Pilling = not an issue with a cleanser; sensitivity = can occur from overuse or if you have a damaged barrier. This cleanser has a low pH to protect your skin's barrier.

Safety: Do not use on damaged or broken skin. Stop if burning rash. [cite_start]Teens can safely use this cleanser to keep skin clean and calm[cite: 2133].

This is a gentle daily item[cite: 2133]. It can be used daily, morning and night, as per the routine maps, to keep skin hydrated and calm.

AM/PM cheat-sheet: AHA/BHA/PHA PM 1–3×/week; Retinal/Retinol PM 2–4×/week; Vitamin C AM daily; Niacinamide AM/PM.

Mauritius note: In heat/humidity, keep layers thin; hydrating SPF may replace AM moisturiser.

Safety: If irritation occurs, reduce frequency to 2×/week, switch to soothing nights, and follow patch-test guidance.

Immediate: Skin will feel clean, comfortable, and soothed after cleansing[cite: 2133]. [cite_start]It effectively removes impurities without a tight or dry sensation[cite: 2133].

2–4 weeks: With consistent use, you may notice a reduction in redness and irritation due to the Centella Asiatica. [cite_start]The formula helps to maintain a healthy skin barrier, making your skin more resilient over time[cite: 2133].

4–8+ weeks: Continued use helps to maintain a healthy skin barrier, leading to a more even tone and a healthier complexion[cite: 2133].

[cite_start]You can also contact us via WhatsApp to verify your product’s details or for any other questions you might have[cite: 2133].

The efficacy of this cleanser is primarily based on the proven benefits of Centella Asiatica. [cite_start]Studies show that Centella's actives aid in wound healing and reduce inflammation by inhibiting key pathways and increasing collagen synthesis[cite: 1455, 1390]. [cite_start]The inclusion of Willow Bark Extract provides natural anti-inflammatory benefits, while Saccharomyces Ferment Filtrate and Meadowfoam Seed Oil help to nourish and hydrate the skin, supporting a healthy barrier[cite: 2133]. [cite_start]The low-pH formula is clinically backed to protect the skin's acid mantle, which is crucial for maintaining a healthy and resilient complexion[cite: 2133, 1388].

Based on a pea-sized amount used twice per day, one 150ml tube should last for approximately 3-4 months[cite: 2133]. [cite_start]A reorder would likely be needed every quarter to maintain a consistent routine[cite: 2133].

"The foam is so rich and luxurious, it feels so good on my skin." (YesStyle review, 2024). "It's super gentle, but it still feels like it's actually cleaning my skin."
