Gentle Wash
Our Gentle Face Wash is a mild and effective cleanser that will remove pollution, oil, grit and grime from your skin without stripping the skin of its natural acid mantle protection or causing it to dry out.
To use: Wet face with cool water. Put a few drops of Gentle wash in your wet hands and rub your hands together then swirl over your face in circular motions being careful to avoid the eyes. Rinse with water and gently blot with a towel leaving your skin slightly damp. Mist with Skin Tonic and immediately follow with a few drops of the Serum Elixir put onto your damp face. This will draw the moisture into your skin and help keep it moist and hydrated throughout the day or night.
