Why we stand behind it

This gentle, multi-tasking facial cleanser transforms from a gel to a milky texture to effortlessly sweep away dirt, makeup, and other impurities. It′s made with micronutrient-dense plant oils, antioxidant-rich blue-green algae, chlorella, and micro-biome supporting probiotics—as well as Josh Rosebrook′s in-house herbal extracts—to calm, soothe, and nourish while helping preserve skin′s delicate acid mantle barrier.

What is an undertone?

An undertone is the color beneath the surface of your skin, which never changes (even with a tan). There are three types of undertones:

Pink/Cool

I see red or pink undertones around the perimeter of my face and neck.
My skin burns easily, but barely tans.
My skin looks better in silver jewelry than gold.

Neutral

I see both pink and yellow undertones around the perimeter of my face and neck.
My skin sometimes burns and sometimes tans.
My skin looks good in both gold and silver jewelry.

Yellow/Warm

I see yellow or golden undertones around the perimeter of my face and neck.
My skin rarely burns, but tans easily.
My skin looks better in gold jewelry than silver.

Haley L. (5/5)

Gentle, highly effective cleanser

"This cleanser has a lovely, rich texture. Removes makeup fully and leaves my skin soft."

Margaret G. (5/5)

Gentle but effective cleanser I’ll keep buying

"I visited the store while in NYC for work, looking for a regimen to help with the redness, dryness, and general aging I’m experiencing with my skin (im 48). A salesperson showed me Josh Rosebrook. While I normally buy drug store face wash, this line had such a nice effect on my skin, it’s worth every penny!"

Jamie D. (5/5)

Perfect for my mature sensitive skin

"I am always looking for products that are gently enough to use around my eyes, but powerful enough to cleanse my pores and get every bit of makeup and oil off. This is a fantastic new addition to my beauty collection."

VERONIQUE P. (5/5)

THICK

"This balm cleanse is THICK and I find that it tugs on my skin if used alone. I started mixing it with the prequel oil cleanser (which I find too thin) and it is dream combo!"

Kate R. (3/5)

Great Product

"I really am enjoying this product!"

Brittany B. (5/5)

Doesn’t clean

"This Cleanse is probably ok as the first step in the cleaning routine, but isn’t enough on its own as recommended to me in the store - when I wipe my face after cleaning with it, makeup just stays on my towel 😅"

Maria K. (3/5)
