Description

This silky powder transforms into a delightfully smooth and creamy lather, delivering a deep clean that’s kind to your skin.

Fine micro-exfoliants cleanse skin of blemish-causing build-up (such as dead skin, excess oil, or leftover makeup), leaving your complexion refreshed and hydrated without ever feeling stripped of moisture.

Because powder cleansers need fewer preservatives than liquids, it’s a safer, non-irritating cleanse you can trust.

Benefits

Cleanses skin thoroughly and gently
Reduces blemish-causing build-up with micro exfoliants
Eliminates acne-causing culprits on your skin
Soothes angry skin
Leaves skin feeling clean, soft, and refreshed
Acne-safe
Clinically-tested
Non-irritating
Non-comedogenic

Ingredients

Rice Powder: Gentle micro-exfoliant that won't tear or dry out skin
Papaya Fruit Extract: Exfoliates and calms skin
Azelaic Acid: Boosts skin's natural cell renewal to reduce build-up, calms skin
Zinc Hyaluronate: Eliminates microscopic skin nasties, drives deep hydration and skin repair

Why Azelaic Acid?

"Because Azelaic Acid helps with cell renewal, it helps with acne and improves overall texture for a smoother, brighter complexion. Azelaic Acid is also anti-inflammatory, so it reduces redness and swelling. It’s anti-microbial, which means it helps kill acne causing bacteria, and it also helps to fade post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation, those dark spots left behind after pimples heal."

- Dr. Mamina Turagano, triple-board certified dermatologist

This cleansing powder is really gentle while actually cleaning your face. I have super sensitive skin and have used it for a while now with no issue at all.

Don’t hesitate! Just buy it!!
Honestly my new favorite cleanser. Great for morning before applying makeup, or as part of your nightly skin care routine, or BOTH! I can’t wait to try the other products. But seriously, buy it.
Leaves me skin feeling soft, but not tight.
