Description

Exuviance Deep Clean AHA Cleanser is a soap-free, foaming anti-ageing cleanser that gently removes surface oils, impurities and make-up, without disrupting the skin’s natural moisture balance. It leaves the skin feeling clean and clarified. Suitable for normal or combination skins.

Key ingredients include anti-ageing Glycolic Acid, an Alpha Hydroxy Acid (AHA) and Gluconolactone, a Polyhydroxy Acid (PHA) to soothe and improve skin texture. Dermatologist and Allergy-tested. Paraben-free. Contains a fragrance.

Dr Webster’s Recommendation: Exuviance Deep Clean AHA Cleanser is a refreshing daily cleanser that foams easily and is non-drying. Caution: Gluconlactone is very gentle when used on sensitive or rosacea skin on its own, but this product also contains glycolic acid so if your skin is dry and/or sensitive I would rather recommend a cream-based cleanser such as Exuviance Gentle Cleansing Cream.

Same formulation, previously known as Purifying Cleansing Gel

    The best cleanser I have ever used. I tried many but never that does the job like this one.

    Love this cleaner! The tube lasts an age, and a little product goes a long way. I have dry, acne prone skin and so I really appreciate how this cleaner doesn’t make my skin squeak but rather feel hydrated and clean – not in a greasy way at all. My skin feels soft after use. Highly recommend!

    This is my favourite wash wash ever. Cleans make up well, smells awesome and leaves your skin feeling refreshed. Great value for money.

    Lovely facewash. You only need the smallest amount and it lathers up nicely. Skin feels nice and clean afterwards. It removes makeup well, but not my waterproof mascara (so I just remove that with eye makeup remover before washing my face). No complaints 🙂

    This cleanser is mild and leaves your skin ready to absorb the next steps in your routine.
    The fragrance is clean and fresh, if you have a very sensitive skin perhaps alternate to 3/4 times a week.

    Lovely cleanser. Just a small amount foams up beautifully and leaves skin feeling super clean and fresh. I thought the smell was a tiny bit overpowering at first, although Iv grown used to the gorgeous botanical scent, so really enjoy it now!

    This was a great cleanser! It really did its job well and for those that like that squeaky clean feel after cleansing, then this is the one for you. It forms a good lather so it works well for oily to combination skins, leaving skin very clean but not at all dry. It also lasts AGES! I bought this product in October last year and I finished it last week! And that’s with cleaning twice a day. A lot goes a long way and therefore makes it incredible value for money.

    This is probably the best cleanser I’ve ever used. I have combination/oily skin, and this product seems like it was made for me.

    Firstly, I’ve been using it for just under 6 months, and I still haven’t used it up. I use a pea-sized amount, which is enough to wash my whole face and neck area. It was actually something I had to get used to, as I’ve only ever used ‘drugstore’ skincare where one tends to use a lot of product at a time. With this cleanser you will definitely know when you’ve used too much, as it won’t foam unless you add a lot of water, and it might be an issue to fully rinse everything off.

    The tube is also much bigger than I initially thought it would be before receiving it. The price of this cleanser is 200% justified when you consider how long it lasts.

    It foams up in a very pleasant way, rich but light. Afterwards my skin feels completely clean, and does not feel dry or stripped.

    I still use a cleansing balm as my first cleanse on days when I wear makeup, but that’s just personal preference. I have used this cleanser on occasion to remove makeup, and it works, although it’s not the best at removing stubborn eyeliner or mascara.

    It has a very light scent which I like, and my only wish is that this product was completely fragrance free as that is something I’m trying to slowly exclude from my skincare routine.

    I can’t think of any reason to try another cleanser for the foreseeable future! Highly recommend.
