Science
Dry, rough, or tight skin can occur at all ages, and may contribute to a dull complexion. It is caused by a variety of factors including lipid depletion, dry air, harsh soaps, hot showers, in-office procedures, or use of highly exfoliating topical skincare products.
As a result, dry skin has special cleansing needs since many traditional surfactants have the potential to strip skin and exacerbate concerns.
Designed specifically for dry, sensitive, or post-procedure skin, Gentle Cleanser is a moisturizing cleanser that lifts makeup and debris while delivering essential hydration to skin.
How to Use
Twice daily, gently massage one pump of this mild cleanser onto a wet face and neck using a light circular motion. Tissue off or rinse thoroughly with warm water and pat dry.
If using in the morning, follow with a SkinCeuticals vitamin C serum and sunscreen. If using in the evening, follow with a SkinCeuticals corrective product or moisturizer.
