A creamy, botanical-rich cleanser featuring Argan Stem Cells and superfruit antioxidants formulated to gently wash dry and sensitive skin without stripping natural oils.
This formula features an excellent base of extremely mild surfactants, specifically Sodium Cocoyl Isethionate and Decyl Glucoside, which effectively cleanse without stripping the skin’s moisture barrier. The product is rich in emollients like Coconut Oil, Glyceryl Oleate, and Jojoba Esters, providing a conditioning after-feel that is ideal for dry or sensitive skin. Furthermore, it contains a robust cocktail of antioxidants (Acai, Blackberry, Pomegranate, Rosehip) and soothing botanicals (Chamomile, Calendula, Rooibos) that help calm inflammation and protect the skin. The only potential downside regarding performance is for those with severe acne, as the high concentration of coconut oil could be comedogenic, though this risk is lower in a rinse-off product.
The ingredient profile is exceptionally clean, avoiding harsh irritants such as sulfates (SLS/SLES), parabens, formaldehyde releasers, and synthetic dyes. The preservative system (Ethylhexylglycerin, Phenethyl Alcohol) is gentle and safe. While Anthemis Nobilis (Chamomile) Flower Oil is an essential oil, chamomile is generally well-tolerated and soothing, posing a very low risk of sensitization compared to other fragrances. The formulation relies on ingredients with a proven track record of safety.
This is a superior facial cleanser formulation that prioritizes skin barrier health. By combining gentle cleansing agents with a wide array of soothing extracts and hydrators, it offers a luxurious cleansing experience that avoids the tightness often associated with washing the face. It is highly recommended for most skin types, particularly sensitive and dry skin, due to its nourishing and calming properties.
This formulation presents a sophisticated approach to facial cleansing that prioritizes barrier health and hydration over heavy-duty degreasing. The primary surfactant system relies on Sodium Cocoyl Isethionate and Decyl Glucoside. The former is often referred to as “baby foam” because of its exceptional mildness and dense, creamy lather, ensuring that the skin’s natural lipid layer remains intact during the wash. This makes the product a low-foaming, non-stripping experience ideal for those who dread that tight, squeaky-dry feeling after washing their face. The texture is likely lush and cushiony, aided by Hydroxypropyl Starch Phosphate and Sclerotium Gum, reducing friction on delicate skin. The inclusion of Cocos Nucifera (Coconut) Oil high up in the ingredient list is the defining characteristic of this cleanser. While this is a boon for dry skin types that crave emollience and lipid replenishment, it serves as a distinct warning flag for others. Coconut oil is notorious for being comedogenic, meaning it has a high potential to clog pores. Therefore, while the cleanser removes dirt, it leaves a moisturizing film that might be too heavy for congestion-prone individuals. However, for those with parched skin, the combination of coconut oil, Glycerin, and Jojoba Esters provides a softening effect that rivals some wash-off masks. What sets this product apart is its robust “salad” of botanical extracts. It features an impressive array of antioxidants like Blackberry, Acai, Rosehip, and Pomegranate, which work to neutralize free radicals from environmental stressors. The soothing complex is equally potent, utilizing Chamomile, Calendula, and Paeonia Lactiflora to reduce redness and irritation. Furthermore, the inclusion of Argania Spinosa Callus Culture Extract (Argan stem cells) and Glycerophosphoinositol Lysine indicates an attempt to introduce anti-aging and deep-soothing benefits into the cleansing step. Ultimately, this is a luxurious option for dry to normal skin types or those dealing with compromised barriers. It feels less like a soap and more like a conditioning treatment. However, due to the heavy oil content, users prone to breakouts should proceed with caution.
