Collection: Cleansers

Gentle and effective cleansers — aloe vera face wash, foam cleansers, micellar waters, cleansing oils, and brightening bars. Every formula removes makeup, excess oil, and impurities without disrupting the skin barrier.

Why aloe vera face wash suits most skin types

Aloe vera cleansing foam has become the default first step for a reason: it is soothing enough for reactive skin but still removes sunscreen and daily grime properly. Aloe is largely water plus polysaccharides, so an aloe vera facial cleanser hydrates slightly as it cleans rather than stripping.

Our aloe vera soothing foam cleanser blends aloe with 18 plant extracts in a 150ml pump. It suits oily, combination, and sensitive skin, and it is a sensible choice if stronger foaming washes have left your face feeling tight.

The tightness test

If your skin feels tight, squeaky, or slightly stinging after cleansing, the cleanser is too harsh — regardless of what it costs. Properly cleansed skin feels comfortable and slightly cushioned, never stripped. That tight feeling is a damaged barrier in progress, and it usually leads to more oil production, not less.

If it has already gone that far, our barrier repair guide covers how to recover without making it worse.

Choosing your cleanser

Aloe or gel foam — the everyday default. Good for oily and combination skin, gentle enough for sensitive.

Cleansing oil or balm — the first step of a double cleanse. Dissolves sunscreen and long-wear makeup that water-based washes leave behind.

Clay-based washes — for congested, visibly textured skin. Our green tomato clay pack cleanser works as both a wash and a short mask.

Brightening bars — the turmeric and kojic acid soap bar targets the appearance of uneven tone on the face and body. Kojic acid can be sensitising, so patch test and build up slowly.

How often, and what comes next

Twice a day for most people — a proper cleanse at night, a gentler rinse or short cleanse in the morning. Oily skin may prefer a full wash both times; very dry or sensitive skin often does better with water only in the morning.

Follow with a face serum on damp skin, then moisturize. If breakouts are the main concern, acne care has targeted patches, and our application order guide explains where cleansing fits.

Frequently asked questions

Is aloe vera face wash good for oily skin?

Yes. Aloe vera cleansing foam removes excess oil without stripping, which matters because over-stripping tends to trigger more oil production. It also suits combination and sensitive skin.

Can I use aloe vera cleanser twice a day?

Yes — aloe-based cleansers are gentle enough for morning and night. If your skin is very dry, water alone in the morning and a full aloe vera face wash at night often works better.

Do I need to double cleanse?

Only if you wear sunscreen or long-wear makeup, which most people should. Use an oil or balm first to dissolve them, then an aloe or gel wash. Bare skin does not need two cleanses.

Why does my skin feel tight after washing?

The cleanser is too harsh. Tightness is a sign the barrier has been stripped, not that skin is clean. Switch to a gentler aloe or cream-based formula.

Should I cleanse in the morning?

Oily skin usually benefits from a light morning cleanse. Dry or sensitive skin often does better rinsing with water and saving the proper cleanse for night.
