A brightening cleansing gel that brings clear radiance

Despite its gel texture, it carefully removes make-up, impurities on the skin's surface and dead skin cells. With AHA (glycolic acid), lemon peel extract and liquorice extract, it addresses the conditions that get in the way of brightness: dullness, thickened dead skin and pigmentation.

It is also designed to be as gentle as possible, cleaning and refreshing without drying or irritating. It turns everyday cleansing into a washing routine that brightens and smooths your skin tone.

Backed by a range developed for aesthetic medical practices, why not start your clarity care at home with your daily wash?

What you can expect

  1. Make-up and surface impurities are removed gently but thoroughly, leaving the skin feeling refreshed and clean. 

  2. It leads to a brighter skin tone where you can feel the clarity, drawing out the skin's own radiance.

  3. It addresses what causes dead skin build-up, dullness and pigmentation, and refines the skin's texture where it is rough or uneven.

  4. It can address both the concerns you have now - dark spots, melasma, heavy pigmentation - and those still to come.

  5. A formula that keeps irritation and dryness to a minimum, for a washing routine that is easy to keep up.

  6. By getting the skin's surface clear at the washing stage, it builds a base that helps the lotion, serum and so on that follow absorb and work better.

“My hairdresser recommended it and I have bought it again. At 300 ml it is good value, and massaging the gel in your hands works it into a foam, which makes it easy to use.”

“I found it when wearing a mask every day had irritated my skin and I had no idea which cleanser to use. It lifts the grime without drying you out.”

Yes. It can be used morning and night. Resetting your skin at the cleansing step, with brightening and exfoliating care, supports the rest of your routine more effectively.

It is described as suitable for any skin type (dry, oily, combination and sensitive). However, it contains AHA (acid), so when using it for the first time or when your skin is sensitive, we recommend trying a small amount or doing a patch test.

This is a gel cleanser that gently removes makeup and impurities, but if you are wearing heavy makeup, waterproof makeup or eye makeup, removing those first with a point makeup remover or cleansing milk will make the process smoother and gentler on your skin.
