Geologie - Sensitive Face Wash

Hero Ingredients: These are the key players that make this formula so gentle yet effective.

Cocamidopropyl Betaine: A very mild cleansing agent derived from coconuts. It helps lift away dirt and oil without being harsh or stripping, which is essential for sensitive skin.

Glycerin: A classic humectant that helps the skin retain moisture. While you cleanse, it works to keep your skin hydrated, preventing that tight, dry feeling after washing.

Citric Acid: Included in a small amount to help adjust the formula's pH to be in harmony with your skin's natural pH, which helps keep the skin barrier happy and healthy.

Full Ingredient List:
Water (Aqua), Sodium C14-16 Olefin Sulfonate, Cocamidopropyl Betaine, Glycerin, Cocamide MIPA, Sodium Chloride, Citric Acid, Phenoxyethanol, Ethylhexylglycerin.

As the name suggests, this face wash is ideal for Sensitive skin. It's also a great choice for Normal and Dry skin types who prefer a very gentle, non-stripping cleanser.

Gently Cleanses: Effectively removes daily dirt, oil, and grime without causing irritation.

Maintains Skin's Natural Balance: The gentle formula respects your skin's moisture barrier, preventing feelings of tightness and dryness.

Calms and Soothes: Designed to leave skin feeling comfortable and balanced, not red or aggravated.

Simple, Effective Formula: A minimal ingredient list focuses on what's necessary for a good, gentle clean.

Use this twice a day, in the morning and evening, to keep your skin clean and balanced.

Step 1: Wet your face with lukewarm water.

Step 2: Squeeze a dime-sized amount of the wash into your wet hands and work it into a light lather.

Step 3: Gently massage the lather onto your face using circular motions for about 30-60 seconds.

Step 4: Rinse thoroughly with lukewarm water and gently pat your face dry with a clean towel.

This product has a minimal formula to reduce the risk of reaction, but as with any product, sensitivities are possible. It is fragrance-free.

The 2nd's Recommendation: Always perform a patch test on a small area of skin (like behind your ear or on your inner arm) 24 hours before full use, especially if you know your skin is reactive.

This is a great, straightforward face wash for anyone whose skin tends to react to new products. Here in New York, the mix of summer humidity and indoor A/C can be tough on sensitive skin, and a gentle cleanser like this helps keep things calm and balanced. Don't mistake "gentle" for "weak", it does a fantastic job of cleaning your skin, it just does it without any unnecessary drama.

This product is fragrance-free.

What makes a face wash suitable for "sensitive skin"?
Typically, it means the formula avoids common irritants. This face wash is fragrance-free and uses very mild cleansing agents instead of harsh sulfates. The goal is to clean the skin effectively while disturbing its natural protective barrier as little as possible.

How do I know if I have sensitive skin?
If your skin frequently reacts to new products with redness, itchiness, stinging, or rashes, you likely have sensitive skin. People with sensitive skin often find that harsh cleansers, heavy fragrances, or certain active ingredients can cause a flare-up.

Will this be effective enough to clean my skin if I'm oily or sweaty?
Absolutely. It's designed to be an effective cleanser that can handle daily sweat and oil. The difference is that it does so using gentler ingredients, so you get the clean feeling without the potential for redness and irritation that can come from more aggressive washes.
