Balance Wash

Balance Wash is a sulfate-free, oil-free daily cleanser formulated to remove impurities, makeup, and excess oil without stripping your skin's natural moisture barrier. Unlike harsher cleansers that leave skin feeling tight or squeaky-clean (a sign of barrier damage), Balance Wash uses gentle surfactants to cleanse thoroughly while keeping the skin's lipid layer intact.

Key ingredients include aloe vera, which soothes and calms as it cleanses, and yucca extract, a plant-derived saponin that creates a mild, conditioning lather without the harshness of sulfates. The formula is designed specifically for combination and sensitive skin — skin types that need real cleansing power but can't tolerate stripping or irritation.

What it does:
- Removes excess oil, impurities, and residual sunscreen without over-drying
- Calms redness and sensitivity during cleansing with botanical actives
- Preserves skin's natural pH and moisture balance
- Preps skin for optimal absorption of serums and treatments applied after

Who it's for:
Balance Wash works for all skin types, but is especially well-suited to combination, sensitive, acne-prone, and post-treatment skin. If your current cleanser leaves your skin tight, red, or dry after washing, this is the switch to make. Gentle enough for twice-daily use.

How to use:
Apply a small amount to damp skin morning and evening. Massage gently for 30–60 seconds, then rinse thoroughly with lukewarm water. Pat dry — do not rub. Follow immediately with Calming Mist or your next routine step.

Pairs well with:
Balance Wash → Calming Mist → Fonte or treatment serum → Repair or HydraGel

Frequently asked questions:

*Can I use Balance Wash to remove heavy makeup?
Balance Wash is effective at removing light-to-moderate makeup and sunscreen. For heavy or waterproof makeup, consider a micellar water or cleansing oil as a first step before Balance Wash as your second cleanse.

*Is this appropriate for oily skin?
Yes. Sulfate-free cleansers are often better for oily skin than sulfate-based ones — stripping cleansers trigger more oil production to compensate for the lost moisture. Balance Wash removes oil without the rebound effect.

*Can I use this around the eye area?
Use with care near eyes. Rinse thoroughly if contact occurs.
