Purify your pores with this clarifying cleanser that balances and refreshes oily and combination skin.

Quantity Limited to 5

Clarifying cleanse for balanced, fresh skin.

Our PURIFYING Face Cleanser combines powerful yet gentle ingredients for a deep cleansing experience. The concentrated formula harnesses sea salt and kaolin clay to draw out impurities while castor seed oil ensures skin stays balanced, not stripped. We've thoughtfully included two bars in each pack, making this your perfect travel companion or bathroom staple.

Each box of concentrated bars equals 4 bottles of liquid cleanser, proving that sustainable beauty doesn't compromise on effectiveness. Suitable for all skin types, especially those prone to congestion or excess oil. 

Scent profile: Sweet orange.

We're transitioning the colour of our Purifying Face Cleanser Bar from green to yellow. As we move through existing stock, you may receive either colour. Both bars contain the exact same formula and deliver the same results – the only difference is the colour.

    A staple in my life !!!

    I have been using this face cleanser for 4 years, and it is truly my favorite! I love that the ingredients are simple and thoughtfully chosen, and it leaves my skin feeling clean and refreshed without being harsh.

    Helpful tip: When your face cleanser bar gets too small to comfortably hold or use on your face, don’t throw it away! Put the remaining piece in an empty travel size shampoo container with a little water and give it a good shake. Over the next couple of days, it will gradually dissolve into a liquid cleanser. This is a great way to get the most out of your cleanser bar and make sure none of it goes to waste!

    Effective cleanser

    I find this face wash great! I use it when removing makeup and sunscreen. It’s gentle and doesn’t affect my sensitive skin. It lasts me a very long time.

    Simple and clean

    The purifying cleanser feels very clean and gentle on the skin. It is nice for end of day face cleaning. Its not as strong as a regular face mask would get you but good for daily use. I did not keep track of when I started to use it, but a couple swipes is all you need.

    Definitely different from the original

    I have loved this cleanser since I won it a few years ago. I’m sad that it has changed slightly from the green bar to the yellow bar. It foams a lot more and therefore gets more wet and soft so is used faster. Still seems to be working well as a cleanser though so I am still using it

    Hi Elisse,
    Thanks for your review and just to assure you that the formulation is exactly the same you know and love with just a change in the mica (colour). So rest assured we have only updated the colour of the bars to match the fun new bright yellow packaging (and not a single other ingredient has changed!!!!).
    Thanks, Team @ Ethique.

    Good for less breakout prone skin

    This is a great cleanser when not in the middle of a breakout. It’s not quite strong enough to clear up acne but for a regular daily cleanser, it works.
