Struggling with dull skin or the lingering dark marks that pimples leave behind? This cleansing foam is designed to start your brightening routine from the very first step, lifting away impurities while delivering a dose of Vitamin C.

• What it is: A dense, creamy foam cleanser formulated with Green Tangerine extract and other brightening agents.
• Who it's for: Best suited for oily, combination, and normal skin types concerned with dullness and uneven skin tone.
• What to expect: Leaves skin feeling thoroughly clean and refreshed. With consistent use, it helps to promote a clearer, more radiant complexion.

1. Cleanser (THIS PRODUCT): Lather a pea-sized amount and gently wash your face.
2. Toner (Important): Follow immediately with a hydrating, pH-balancing toner to restore your skin's acid mantle after cleansing.
3. Protect/Moisturise: Finish with Sunscreen (AM) or a Moisturiser (PM) to seal and protect.

Note: Already own a similar cleanser? Finish that first to avoid waste (substitute, don’t stack).

Minimalist (3-4 steps):

1. Cleanser (THIS PRODUCT): Start your day with a refreshing, brightening cleanse.
2. pH-Balancing Toner: An essential step after this cleanser to rebalance your skin. A hydrating toner works well.
3. Vitamin C Serum (Optional): For an extra brightening boost to tackle dark spots.
4. Sunscreen SPF 30+: Protects your skin and the results of your brightening routine. This is non-negotiable in Mauritius.

Wait times: Wait 30-60 seconds between watery layers; allow 1-2 minutes before applying sunscreen.

Minimalist (3-4 steps):

1. Oil Cleanser (If wearing makeup/SPF): Start with an oil cleanser to dissolve makeup and sunscreen effectively.
2. Water-Based Cleanser (THIS PRODUCT): Follow up to deep clean the skin.
3. Hydrating/Brightening Serum: Apply a targeted serum like Niacinamide or Hyaluronic Acid.
4. Moisturiser: Lock in hydration and support your skin barrier overnight.

Texture rule: Apply products from the thinnest texture (toner) to the thickest (cream).

Daily Use — AM/PM:

• Amount: Squeeze a pea-sized amount into your wet palm.
• Method: Add a little water and rub your hands together to create a rich, dense lather. Gently massage the foam over your entire face, avoiding the immediate eye area. Rinse thoroughly with lukewarm water.
• Key Tip: Due to this cleanser's high pH, it is highly recommended to follow immediately with a pH-balancing toner to help restore your skin's natural protective barrier.
• Frequency: Use once or twice daily. If you have combination skin, you may prefer to use it only once a day (in the evening) and a gentler cleanser in the morning.

If-This / Then-That:

• Very oily T-zone? This cleanser will effectively remove excess sebum, leaving your skin feeling fresh.
• Dry cheeks? This cleanser may feel stripping on drier areas. Focus application on the T-zone and follow up with a rich moisturiser on the cheeks.
• Sensitive/reactive? Patch test first. The combination of essential oils and a high pH may cause irritation for very sensitive skin.

Safety: For external use only. Avoid contact with eyes. Discontinue use if a persistent rash or irritation occurs. This product is not formulated for young children or teens with compromised skin barriers; focus on cleanser–moisturiser–SPF for them.

• Immediately: Skin feels deeply cleansed, refreshed, and free of oil and daily grime.
• 2–4 weeks: With consistent daily use (and mandatory sunscreen), you may notice your overall complexion appearing brighter and more radiant.
• 4–8+ weeks: The appearance of minor dark spots and uneven tone may be visibly improved, contributing to a clearer, more even look.

Why use a formulated Vitamin C cleanser, not DIY citrus juice?

Some believe rubbing lemon or orange juice on the skin can brighten dark spots. While citrus contains Vitamin C, the juice is highly acidic (low pH) and contains compounds that can cause chemical burns and severe sun sensitivity (phytophotodermatitis), leading to worse hyperpigmentation. This cleanser uses a stabilized, gentle Vitamin C derivative in a balanced formula to brighten safely, without the risks of DIY acids.

• Works Well With: This cleanser prepares the skin well for a full brightening or hydrating routine. It pairs excellently with hydrating toners, Vitamin C serums, Niacinamide serums, and hyaluronic acid.
• Use Carefully: Because this is a high-pH cleanser, it is crucial to pair it with a low-pH, hydrating toner immediately after use to help rebalance your skin's acid mantle. Avoid using it right before or after harsh physical scrubs, as this could lead to over-stripping the skin.
• Avoid On: Do not use on broken, wounded, or severely irritated skin. If you have a compromised skin barrier (stinging, peeling, redness), opt for a gentler, low-pH cleanser until your skin has recovered.

• Oily Skin: Excellent. Effectively removes excess oil and leaves skin feeling fresh and clean without being overly harsh.
• Combination Skin: Very good, especially for those with an oily T-zone. May be slightly drying on the cheeks, so follow with targeted hydration.
• Normal Skin: Good. Provides a thorough cleanse and helps maintain radiance. Ensure you follow with a toner and moisturiser.
• Dry Skin: Use with caution. The high pH and foaming action may strip necessary oils, leading to tightness and dryness. A gentler, cream-based cleanser would be a better choice.
• Sensitive Skin: Patch test required. The presence of essential oils (fragrance) and the high pH formulation can be irritating for reactive skin types.

• Dullness: Helps to wash away the build-up of dead skin cells and impurities that can make the complexion look tired and lacklustre.
• Uneven Skin Tone & Post-Acne Marks (PIH): Formulated with Vitamin C, Niacinamide, and Arbutin to help fade the appearance of dark spots and promote a more even skin tone over time.
• Excess Sebum: Provides a deep cleanse that effectively controls surface oil and shine, particularly for those living in Mauritius's humid climate.

Key Actives Explained:

• Citrus Tangerina (Tangerine) Extract & 3-O-Ethyl Ascorbic Acid: A potent, stable form of Vitamin C. It acts as an antioxidant, protecting skin from environmental damage, and helps to inhibit melanin production to brighten dark spots and even out skin tone.
• Niacinamide (Vitamin B3): A powerhouse ingredient that helps brighten the skin, improve the skin barrier, regulate oil production, and reduce redness.
• Arbutin: A gentle but effective skin brightener that works by inhibiting tyrosinase, the enzyme responsible for dark spots. It is a safer alternative to hydroquinone.

Full INCI List (International Nomenclature of Cosmetic Ingredients): Water, Glycerin, Stearic Acid, Myristic Acid, Potassium Hydroxide, Lauric Acid, Palmitic Acid, Cocamidopropyl Betaine, Potassium Cocoate, Glyceryl Stearate, Polyquaternium-7, Citrus Tangerina (Tangerine) Peel Oil, Arachidic Acid, Sodium Cocoyl Isethionate, Citrus Aurantium Dulcis (Orange) Peel Oil, Sodium Phytate, 1,2-Hexanediol, Quillaja Saponaria Bark Extract, Oleic Acid, Sodium Benzoate, 3-O-Ethyl Ascorbic Acid, Niacinamide, Arbutin, Butylene Glycol, Caprylic/Capric Triglyceride, Hydrolyzed Hyaluronic Acid, Melia Azadirachta Flower Extract, Melia Azadirachta Leaf Extract, Curcuma Longa (Turmeric) Root Extract, Ocimum Sanctum Leaf Extract, Citrus Tangerina (Tangerine) Extract, Corallina Officinalis Extract, Limonene, Linalool.

• Fragrance Status: Contains natural fragrance from essential oils (Tangerine Peel Oil, Orange Peel Oil). It does not contain synthetic perfumes.
• Scent Profile: A bright, refreshing, and natural citrus scent. Intensity: 3/5.
• EU Allergens: Contains Limonene and Linalool, which are naturally occurring components of the essential oils used. If you have a known allergy to citrus essential oils, a patch test is highly recommended.

• Who should use with caution: Individuals with very dry, sensitive, or eczema-prone skin should approach this cleanser with caution due to its high pH and essential oil content. A gentler cleanser is likely a better fit.
• Patch Test Protocol: Before first use, apply a pea-sized amount to a small, discreet area of skin, such as behind your ear or on your inner jawline. Wait 24 hours to observe for any signs of redness, itching, or irritation. If a reaction occurs, discontinue use.
• If Irritation Occurs: Stop using the product immediately. Cleanse the area with cool water and apply a simple, soothing moisturiser. If irritation is severe or persists, consult a healthcare professional.

• Texture: A thick, pearlescent cream that lathers into a dense, rich foam.
• Finish: Leaves skin feeling exceptionally clean and matte, with a "squeaky clean" sensation. Does not leave a hydrating film.
• Scent: Natural, zesty citrus.
• pH Level: Approximately 8.5 - 9.5. This is an alkaline pH, which can be stripping for the skin's natural acid mantle. Following with a low-pH toner is strongly advised.
• Fungal Acne (Malassezia) Compatibility: Not considered "FA-safe" due to the presence of several fatty acids (Myristic Acid, Lauric Acid, Palmitic Acid, Oleic Acid) which can be triggers. Individual responses may vary.

• "My skin feels tight or dry after using it." → This is likely due to the high pH. Ensure you are using only a pea-sized amount and immediately follow with a hydrating, low-pH toner and a good moisturiser. You may also consider using this cleanser only once per day.
• "I'm not seeing any brightening results." → Brightening takes time and consistency. Ensure you are using the cleanser daily for at least 4-8 weeks and, most importantly, wearing a broad-spectrum SPF 30+ sunscreen every single day. Sun exposure will reverse any potential benefits.
• "My skin feels a bit tingly/sensitive." → This could be a reaction to the essential oils or the alkaline formula. Reduce use to once a day or every other day. If tingling persists, discontinue use as this product may not be suitable for your skin's sensitivity level.

This cleanser is an excellent match for the hot and humid climate of Mauritius, especially during the summer months.

• Humid Summer: The rich foam effectively cuts through sweat, excess oil, and sunscreen build-up, leaving skin feeling fresh and non-greasy. Its brightening properties help combat the dullness that can result from sun exposure.
• Drier Winter/AC Exposure: If your skin leans drier in the cooler months or due to air conditioning, you may find this cleanser a bit stripping. Consider using it only in the evening to remove the day's grime and opting for a gentler, creamier cleanser in the morning.

"A little goes a long way. It foams up really well and leaves my skin feeling clean but not stripped. The citrus scent is really refreshing in the morning."

— YesStyle review (2024-05)

An Amazon customer with oily, acne-prone skin found it worked well and helped brighten their skin over several weeks. They noted its high pH and wisely advised: "I always follow up with a low-pH toner to rebalance my skin."

— Paraphrased from Amazon customer review (2024-03)

A Fair Caveat: A Reddit user with combination skin found the cleanser too stripping. They commented, "The squeaky clean feeling was too much. Definitely not for dry or dehydrated types."

— Reddit, r/AsianBeauty (2023-11)

Goodal's name comes from the phrase "Good All," reflecting their philosophy of using all that is good from Korean nature. The brand focuses on creating effective skincare by combining traditional, natural ingredients with modern dermatological science. They are known for their gentle yet powerful formulas that harness the vitality of ingredients like Green Tangerine and Heartleaf to deliver visible results.

• Vitamin C (3-O-Ethyl Ascorbic Acid): A very stable and effective form of Vitamin C that brightens skin, evens tone, and provides antioxidant protection.
• Niacinamide: A form of Vitamin B3 that helps with oil control, redness, pore size, and uneven skin tone.
• Arbutin: A safe and effective ingredient derived from the bearberry plant that helps to fade hyperpigmentation.
• pH (Potential of Hydrogen): A scale to measure acidity or alkalinity. Skin's natural pH is slightly acidic (~4.7-5.75). A high-pH cleanser (like this one) can disrupt this "acid mantle," making a balancing toner important.
• MFDS: The Ministry of Food and Drug Safety in South Korea, the regulatory body for cosmetics.
• PAO (Period After Opening): The symbol on packaging (an open jar with a number like "12M") indicating how many months the product is safe to use after being opened.

Will this cleanser bleach or lighten my natural skin colour?

No. The term "brightening" in this context refers to fading dark spots (like sun spots or post-acne marks) and evening out your skin tone for a more radiant complexion. It will not change your natural skin colour.

Is this good for sensitive skin?

It depends on the sensitivity. While many enjoy it, this cleanser contains natural citrus essential oils and has a high pH, both of which can be potential triggers for very sensitive or reactive skin. A patch test is strongly recommended.

Why is using a toner after this cleanser so important?

This cleanser has an alkaline pH (~8.5-9.5), while your skin's healthy barrier (the acid mantle) has an acidic pH (~4.7-5.75). Using a high-pH cleanser can temporarily disrupt this barrier. A pH-balancing toner helps to quickly restore your skin's optimal acidic state, supporting its health and resilience.

• Best For: Oily and combination skin types looking to address dullness and uneven tone.
• Key Benefits: Provides a deep, refreshing cleanse; helps brighten the complexion over time; a little product creates a lot of foam.
• Keep in Mind: Has a high, alkaline pH that requires a balancing toner. Contains essential oils, so it's not ideal for very sensitive skin. Not suitable for very dry skin types as it can be stripping.

• Coverage: Island-wide delivery (Mauritius).
• Processing & Timing: Orders process in 1–2 business days. Delivery typically takes another 1–5 business days after partner pickup.
