Why it works

  • Lifts long-wear makeup, sunscreen, and daily buildup in one pass
  • Built for twice-daily use — energizing in the morning, quieting at night
  • Leaves skin feeling cushioned, not scrubbed raw

The green

Yes, it's actually green. No, it won't stay that way on your skin. Our signature green tint is the result of Visual Correction Technology — color science borrowed from professional makeup, engineered into skincare. Green sits opposite red on the color wheel, which means it visually neutralizes the look of redness, flush, and irritation the moment it touches skin. It's optical correction working alongside the actives. Smart science. Instant payoff. No filter required.

In the cleanser: the green tint is the first thing you see. It calms the visual story of a long day before the actives even start working.


Twice daily.

AM and PM. The first step in your ritual.

  1. PM: Apply directly to dry skin. Massage in circular motions to dissolve makeup, SPF, and the day. Add water to emulsify, then rinse with lukewarm water.

  2. AM: Wet skin first. Dispense one pump, massage gently for 30 seconds, rinse.

  3. Pat — don't rub — dry. Follow with eye cream, serums, and moisturizer.

Pro tip:

No need to double-cleanse. That's the whole point.

  • Yerba Mate (Ilex Paraguariensis) Leaf Extract: Naturally rich in caffeine, polyphenols, and saponins. Helps support skin against environmental stressors — even during the few seconds it's on your face.
  • Niacinamide (Vitamin B3): One of the most-studied skincare ingredients on the planet. Supports an even-looking tone, refined-looking pores, and overall clarity.
  • Palmitoyl Tripeptide-5: A peptide that supports the look of smoothness and resilience.
  • Glycerin + Propanediol: Humectants that pull moisture in while you cleanse, so skin doesn't feel parched after rinse.
  • Rice (Oryza Sativa) Extract: Brightening, softening, calming.
  • Coco-Betaine + Sodium C14-16 Olefin Sulfonate — The cleansing duo: thorough enough to remove sunscreen and makeup, mild enough not to strip the barrier.
  • Xanthan Gum: A naturally derived thickener that gives the formula its luxurious, creamy texture.

Application for Optimal Efficacy.

How to use cleanser first

1

Start dry. Yes, dry.

Press a quarter onto a bare, un-rinsed face. Massage in circles for a real 30 seconds — not the polite five-second version. This is where mascara, SPF, and that fourth-meeting tension all get politely shown the door.

2

Now invite the water in.

A splash, and the cream collapses into a soft foam. Keep moving — temples, hairline, that spot under the jaw everyone forgets. The peptides are still clocked in, and they don't appreciate being rushed.

How to use cleanser third

3

Lukewarm rinse. Pat dry. That's a wrap.

Hot water is for tea, not your face. Pat with a clean towel — not the gym one that's been hate-watching you all week. Skin should feel awake, not auditioned.

  • Yerba Mate ingredient

    Yerba Mate

    South America's most-studied botanical packs 196 actives — 52 more than green tea. Caffeine and theobromine wake up tired microcirculation; chlorogenic acid keeps collagen flexible instead of brittle.*

  • Squalane

    Niacinamide

    Increases ceramide biosynthesis by 34% and free fatty acid synthesis by 67% (British Journal of Dermatology, 2000). Stronger barrier, less reactivity, evener tone.*

  • Palmitoyl Tripeptide-5 ingredient

    Palmitoyl Tripeptide-5

    Most peptides skip cleansers — this one earns the slot. It signals collagen and elastin support in the brief window before you rinse, so your wash isn't just removing the day, it's prepping the skin.*

  • Rice ingredient

    Rice Extract

    Studied to inhibit MMP-1, the enzyme that breaks down collagen when skin is stressed. A centuries-old Japanese ritual, finally with receipts attached.*

Have questions?

Frecuently Asked Questions

How quickly will I see results?

From the first wash, skin feels softer and looks fresher — no tight, stripped feeling. With regular use, tone looks more even and texture looks smoother.

Will it remove my makeup?

Yes — including SPF and most foundations. For heavy or waterproof makeup, double cleanse: an oil cleanser first, this one second.

Is it good for sensitive skin?

Built for it. Sulfate-free, fragrance-free, and pH-considerate, so your barrier stays intact.

How often should I use it?

Twice a day works for most. If your skin runs dry, use it once at night and rinse with water in the morning.

Why put yerba mate in a cleanser if it rinses off?

Because even short contact time with antioxidants matters. Yerba mate helps neutralize free radicals while you cleanse. Bonus benefits, no extra effort.

Will it foam like a traditional foaming cleanser?

It produces a soft, creamy lather — not aggressive bubbles. That's intentional. Aggressive foam usually means a harsh surfactant.

Is it safe to use around the eyes?

Yes, but rinse thoroughly. Avoid getting it directly in the eyes.

How do I apply it?

Wet your face. Massage a coin-sized amount in circles for about 30 seconds. Rinse with lukewarm water. Pat dry — don't rub.
