Face Reality Barrier Balance Creamy Cleanser is a gentle, hydrating face wash designed to remove impurities, makeup and excess oil while supporting your skin's natural moisture barrier.

Unlike traditional foaming cleansers, this rich, creamy formula gently cleanses without stripping away essential moisture. It leaves skin feeling soft, comfortable and refreshed without a greasy residue.

Formulated with prebiotics, panthenol, centella asiatica, bisabolol and jojoba-derived ingredients, this cleanser helps soothe stressed skin, support a balanced skin microbiome and maintain a healthy moisture barrier.

It's especially beneficial for dry, dehydrated, sensitive and mature skin, as well as acne-prone skin experiencing dryness from active treatments.

Whether your skin needs extra comfort or you're looking for a gentle everyday cleanser, Barrier Balance makes it easy to cleanse without compromising your skin barrier.

Step 1: Wet Your Skin
Begin by dampening your face with lukewarm water.

Step 2: Apply Cleanser
Dispense a small amount of Face Reality Barrier Balance Creamy Cleanser into your hands.

Step 3: Gently Massage
Massage onto your face using gentle circular motions, focusing on areas with makeup, sunscreen or daily buildup. This is a non-foaming cleanser, so it won't create a rich lather.

Step 4: Rinse Thoroughly
Rinse with lukewarm water and gently pat your skin dry using a clean, soft towel.

Step 5: Continue Your Routine
Follow with your favorite hydrating serum, moisturizer and any treatments recommended by your skincare professional. During the day, finish with broad-spectrum sunscreen SPF 30 or higher.

Use morning and evening as part of your daily skincare routine.

Pro Tip: If your skin feels dry, irritated or tight from acne treatments, switching to a creamy, non-foaming cleanser can help keep your routine gentle. Pair it with hydrating products to support your moisture barrier.

Important: Avoid using excessively hot water or scrubbing your skin. If you're following a customized Face Reality acne treatment plan, continue using products according to your acne expert's instructions.
