What it actually does

• Removes makeup, mineral SPF and pollution. ILIA states this is clinically proven, and specifically that it happens without stripping the skin.
• Keeps the pH where it should be. The formula is pH-balanced, and the brand says the tested formula maintains skin's own pH through the wash.
• Replaces the water cleansing takes. Natural sugars bind moisture to the skin so hydration is still there after you rinse — ILIA's answer to the tight feeling most foaming washes leave.
• Uses gentle sulfate alternatives. The plant-based surfactants are there to dissolve buildup without the drying effect.
• Works across skin types. It is listed for normal, dry, combination and oily skin, with pores, dryness and oiliness as the concerns it addresses.
• Fragrance-free, vegan, cruelty-free. Brand callouts.

Brand-reported results

ILIA ran a 21-day clinical study with 50 women and men aged 18 to 60. 98% agreed their skin was cleansed without needing a second product and without stripping; 96% agreed their skin felt soft, supple and soothed; and 96% agreed the look of their pores was reduced.

How to use

1. Two to three pumps. Massage into the skin — damp or dry both work.
2. Rinse thoroughly with warm water.
3. Go again if you need to. ILIA recommends a second pass to clear long-wear makeup.
4. Use it twice a day. It is gentle enough for both your morning and evening wash.

Questions

Will it take off my SPF?

ILIA specifies mineral SPF alongside makeup and pollution as what this cleanser is proven to remove. For long-wear makeup the brand suggests simply repeating the wash.

Do I still need a second cleanse?

The brand's study found most participants agreed no second product was needed. In practice, a heavy makeup day may still be easier with two passes of this same cleanser.

Is it suitable for oily skin?

Yes — oily skin is one of the four types listed, and oiliness and pores are both named as concerns it addresses. The gentle surfactants clear buildup without pushing skin into the dry-then-oilier cycle.
