Details & care

What it is: A moisturizing, creamy cleanser designed to gently remove makeup and surface impurities.

Who it's for: Ideal for dry, sensitive and aging skin types.

What it does: This fragrance-free facial cleanser melts away everything from dirt and debris to makeup, all without stripping the skin’s moisture barrier. It gently cleanses to promote a clean, radiant complexion. This pH-balanced formula soothes dry skin so it’s left feeling smooth, healthy and hydrated. Dermatologist approved and safe for sensitive skin.

Key ingredients:

- Undaria seaweed: rich in amino acids, antioxidants and nutrients to mineralize the skin

- Skin Identical Moisturizing Complex (saccharide isomerate): provides hydration for healthier-looking skin

- Witch hazel: alcohol-free astringent that gently cleanses to refresh skin

- Safflower seed oil: emollient oil derived from the safflower plant nourishes and soothes dry skin

- Glycerin: gently moisturizes, smoothes and hydrates

How to use: Apply the cleanser to damp skin and rinse with warm water. Layer with preferred OSEA serum, facial oil and moisturizer. Use morning and night.

Can't use this anymore
Something in the OSea products have created some serious skin barrier damage - causing acne and perioral dermatitis. Im disappointed because I really wanted these products to work for me.

Feels great, smells great!
This is really comfortable for my slightly drier skin, it has a very subtle smell that just seems clean and it can be used with water or without. I alternate between this cleanser and the Ocean Cleanser depending on how my skin is doing and while I love both, this one doesn't remove makeup as effectively and that's the only reason I didn't give it a full five stars. If I have makeup on (or sunscreen) I feel like I need to remove that first with this cleanser. It does a great job on bare skin, though!

Very Gentle
I switched over to this cleanser because my rosacea has been flairing lately and this cleanser doesn't cause it to react. It's very gentle, soothing, and still makes my face feel clean. It's wonderful for my sensitive skin, love it!

Love this with ocean cleanser!
I use this when double cleansing with the ocean cleanser. it really hydrates my skin. i'm new to osea skin care as a long time la roche posay user, and while it took some time to get used to not having a sudsy/foaming cleanser, my skin feels so much cleaner and healthier (especially knowing it's cruelty free!) helps keep skin moisturized with the hot dry arizona heat.
