the pore fessional Good Cleanup Foaming Cleanser 45 ml

The POREfessional Good Cleanup Foaming Cleanser starts as a gel and turns into a light, purifying foam the moment you work it in. It is the pore-focused daily wash of the line: it clears dirt, oil and impurities without that tight, squeaky after-feel, and Benefit says pores look smaller and skin looks clearer with continued use.

What it actually does

• Clears the surface properly. The foam visibly lifts dirt, oil and impurities, which is the groundwork for everything else you put on afterwards.
• Works on how pores look over time. Benefit's claim is that pores appear smaller and skin looks clearer the longer you keep using it.
• Does not leave skin tight. The brand specifically says skin is left fresh and smooth rather than stripped — the usual trade-off with foaming washes.
• Lemon and yuzu extracts do the heavy lifting. Lemon extract is included to help pores look smaller; yuzu extract is there to help skin feel smoother.
• Bisabolol keeps it comfortable. Included to comfort the skin, which is part of why the formula extends to sensitive types.
• Tested broadly. Dermatologist tested as well as clinically tested, and cleared for every skin type — sensitive skin included.

Questions

Is it harsh on sensitive skin?

Benefit clears it for every skin type, sensitive skin included, and it is both dermatologist and clinically tested. Bisabolol sits in the formula specifically to comfort skin, and there are no SLS or SLES sulfates.

Does it remove makeup?

It clears dirt, oil and impurities, but for a full face of makeup Benefit positions it as the second step — the Get Unblocked oil cleanser goes first, and this follows it.

How often should I use it?

Daily, both morning and night, per the brand's directions.

Can I recycle the packaging?

The outer packaging is FSC-certified and the bottle is post-consumer recycled aluminium. Both are recyclable in many areas — check your local rules.

How long does delivery take?

Delivery takes 3 to 21 working days, depending on availability. Payment is by credit card, debit card, Instapay and mobile wallets — no cash on delivery.

If it arrives damaged or expired?
