60 seconds on why this cleanser has a cult following.
Tea tree oil is naturally clarifying — it deep-cleans and helps keep pores clear without the harsh stuff.
Awapuhi (Hawaiian ginger) keeps skin feeling balanced and comfortable — never that tight, squeaky, over-washed feeling.
A go-to for anyone fighting shine and breakouts who's tired of cleansers that make it worse.
Massage a small amount onto wet skin, morning and night.
Gently massage for 30 seconds — let the tea tree do the work. Avoid the eye area.
Rinse with warm water and pat dry. Follow with your moisturizer.
Hero ingredients: Australian tea tree oil (clarifying), awapuhi (balancing Hawaiian ginger extract), and a gentle plant-based cleansing base. No parabens, no SLS. 8.5 fl oz.
"The only cleanser that clears my breakouts without drying my face out. I've repurchased four times."
"A little goes a long way and my skin feels clean but not tight. The tea tree smell is so fresh."
"Great for oily skin in summer. Cut my midday shine noticeably after a couple weeks."
