FAQs
What we leave out:
Parabens, sulphates.
How often can I use this product?
You can use this cleanser once or twice a day, it’s up to you.
Is this cleanser suitable for all skin types?
Our Dissolve Away The Day Cleanser is designed for all skin types, including normal, combination, oily, dry, and sensitive, thanks to its extra-gentle formula that effectively cleanses the skin without causing excessive dryness or irritation.
Can I use this cleanser if I have sensitive skin?
Absolutely! It is expertly formulated with hydrating oils such as orange peel and bergamot fruit oil which will replenish lost moisture and leave your skin feeling hydrated.
Are there any additional benefits of this cleanser?
Aside from being a highly-effective cleanser, the formula contains caffeine which has antioxidant properties and may help reduce the appearance of puffiness or redness. Furthermore, the addition of Helianthus Annuus (Sunflower) Seed Oil and Terminalia Ferdinandiana Fruit Extract may help to nourish and moisturise the skin after cleansing, leaving it soft and refreshed.
Can this cleanser remove waterproof makeup?
Our Dissolve Away The Day Cleanser is great at removing makeup in general, however you might want to use it as the second step of a double-cleanse (after a cleansing balm or oil) to remove anything more stubborn like longwear foundation or waterproof mascara.
Does it smell like anything?
Although our cleanser is fragrance-free, the addition of botanical ingredients such as Citrus Aurantium Dulcis Peel Oil (orange peel oil), Citrus Nobilis Peel Oil (mandarin peel oil), and Citrus Aurantium Bergamia Fruit Oil (bergamot fruit oil) offers the formula a light zingy scent.
Will this cleanser make my skin feel dry or tight?
Our Dissolve Away The Day Cleanser has been designed to use on all skin types — even dry — and won’t strip your skin of moisture. However, after you use it, make sure you follow up with a hydrating skincare product such as our super-nourishing Get, Set, Glow! Face Oil.
Is this cleanser safe to use around my eyes?
You can use it around your eyes (such as on your eyelids) but it’s best to keep your eyes shut when you’re washing your face.
The Science
Caffeine
Caffeine has the ability to energise the skin and offers antioxidant properties, reduces inflammation and improves blood circulation.

Terminalia Ferdinandiana (Kakadu Plum) Fruit Extract
Kakadu Plum Extract is a beneficial skincare ingredient. It is high in vitamin C, which protects against free radicals, brightens the complexion, and reduces the signs of ageing. It also provides hydration, soothing effects, and antimicrobial properties for younger-looking skin.

Helianthus Annuus (Sunflower) Seed Oil
Sunflower Seed Oil is used in skincare to moisturise and nourish the skin, as well as to provide antioxidant protection, anti-inflammatory properties, and to improve the skin's barrier function. It's also great to use on all skin types, including oily and acne-prone skin, and leaves skin smooth and soft without clogging pores.
