Sea Salt Cleansing Gel

Yes — this cleanser was formulated specifically with gentleness in mind. The surfactant system uses mild cleansing agents similar to those found in baby shampoos, which clean effectively without the harshness associated with stronger sulfates like sodium lauryl sulfate. Sea salt acts as a natural antiseptic that helps address the bacteria that contribute to breakouts and clogged pores, making it well suited to blemish-prone skin. The formula is also phenoxyethanol-free and includes calming botanical extracts — chamomile, green tea, and cucumber — to soothe the skin during cleansing. It does not sting the eye area during normal use, which makes it a practical option for those with reactive or sensitized skin.

The two cleansers serve different primary purposes and suit different skin goals. The Sea Salt Cleansing Gel is a gentle, soothing daily cleanser suited to all skin types — including sensitive, oily, acne-prone, and normal skin — that prioritizes gentle cleansing without exfoliation or active treatment. It is the right choice if you want a non-stripping everyday cleanser that leaves skin refreshed without any actives. The Glycolic Acid Facial Cleanser contains 3% glycolic acid and provides mild exfoliation alongside deep cleansing, making it better suited to mature, sun-damaged, or blemished skin that benefits from regular AHA stimulation. If you are sensitive to acids or in the early stages of building a skincare routine, start with the Sea Salt Gel. If your skin is accustomed to actives and you want a cleanser that also preps skin for further glycolic acid treatment, the Glycolic Cleanser is the stronger choice.
