Uses & Benefits
Cleansing face wash for oily and acne-prone skin; helps remove excess oil/sebum, dirt and impurities; supports acne care routines and helps reduce shine.
How It Works
Gentle surfactants lift and remove oil, sweat and impurities without harsh stripping. Sebum-regulating/soothing ingredients (e.g., zinc, niacinamide, panthenol) help reduce oiliness, calm irritation and support the skin barrier.
Directions for Use
For external use only. Wet face, dispense foam onto hands, gently massage over face for 20–30 seconds, then rinse thoroughly and pat dry. Use 1–2 times daily or as directed by a dermatologist; avoid contact with eyes.
For external use only. Avoid contact with eyes; rinse well with water if it occurs. Stop use and consult a doctor if persistent irritation, swelling or rash develops. Use with caution on very sensitive or severely inflamed skin; moisturize after cleansing if dryness occurs. Keep out of reach of children.
Drug Interactions
No clinically significant drug interactions expected for a rinse-off cleanser. If using topical acne actives (retinoids, benzoyl peroxide, salicylic acid), dryness/irritation may increase—use gentle routine and moisturize.
