AHA/PHA foaming facial cleanser and makeup remover
Description
Exuviance Deep Clean AHA Cleanser is a foaming, soap-free facial cleanser and makeup remover formulated with an Alpha Hydroxy Acid (AHA) and Polyhydroxy Acid (PHA) blend of Glycolic Acid and Gluconolactone. This gel cleanser is designed to deep clean and effectively remove makeup, surface oils and impurities while targeting a clarified skin texture and supporting the skin’s natural pH balance. The non-drying, dermatologist- and allergy-tested formula helps to refine pores, smooth uneven texture and leave skin feeling clean, refreshed and clarified.
Bnefits
Foaming, soap-free facial cleanser and makeup remover with Glycolic Acid (AHA) and Gluconolactone (PHA).
Deep cleans to remove makeup, surface oils, impurities and pollution residues without leaving the skin feeling stripped.
Helps clarify skin texture, refine the appearance of enlarged pores and promote a smoother, more even-looking complexion.
Supports skin’s natural pH balance while providing gentle chemical exfoliation through AHA and PHA.
Non-drying, gel-based formula suitable for regular use in normal to combination and oily, blemish-prone skin types.
Dermatologist and allergy tested to support use on a wide range of skin types.
Alcohol-free formula (no drying ethyl alcohol), helping to maintain skin comfort and minimise tightness after cleansing.
Lightly fragranced and rinses cleanly without leaving a heavy residue.
Can help improve the look of dull, uneven skin tone over time by promoting regular exfoliation of surface dead skin cells.
Pairs well with Exuviance treatment serums and moisturisers as a first step to optimise penetration of subsequent skincare.
Indications
Daily cleansing for normal to combination skin types.
Skin with uneven texture, dullness or a lack of clarity.
Enlarged or congested pores needing deep but non-drying cleansing.
Skin with early signs of ageing, such as fine lines and rough surface texture, that can benefit from daily AHA/PHA exfoliation.
Oily or blemish-prone skin requiring a clarifying foaming cleanser that removes excess sebum and impurities.
Individuals seeking a makeup-removing cleanser that also provides gentle chemical exfoliation.
Use twice daily, morning and evening, as the first step in your skincare routine.
Apply a small amount of Deep Clean AHA Cleanser to wet skin.
Gently massage over the entire face (and neck if desired) using circular motions, avoiding the immediate eye area.
Rinse thoroughly with lukewarm water and pat skin dry.
Follow with toner (if used), treatment serum and moisturiser, plus a broad-spectrum sunscreen in the daytime.
Sunburn Alert: Because this product contains an Alpha Hydroxy Acid (AHA), use sunscreen, wear protective clothing and limit sun exposure while using this product and for a week afterwards.
If irritation occurs, reduce frequency of use (e.g. once daily or a few times per week) or discontinue use and consult a skincare professional.
Contraindications
Known allergy or hypersensitivity to Glycolic Acid, Gluconolactone or any other listed ingredient.
Very sensitive, highly reactive or barrier-impaired skin that does not tolerate AHA-based products, unless advised by a dermatologist.
Compromised, broken or severely irritated skin (e.g. active dermatitis, severe sunburn, open lesions) unless directed by a healthcare professional.
Use with caution in individuals using other strong exfoliating products, prescription retinoids or recent in-clinic resurfacing procedures; consult a professional before combining.
Not intended for use on the eyelids, immediate eye area or mucous membranes.
Adverse Effects
Temporary sensations of tingling, mild stinging or warmth, especially when first introducing AHAs.
Possible dryness, tightness, mild peeling or flaking if used too frequently or in combination with other exfoliants.
Increased sun sensitivity due to the presence of Glycolic Acid (AHA), with higher risk of sunburn if adequate sun protection is not used.
In rare cases, irritation, redness or allergic contact dermatitis to one or more ingredients (e.g. fragrance, colourants, preservatives).
If persistent burning, marked redness, swelling or rash occurs, discontinue use and seek medical advice.
Storage Conditions
Store at room temperature away from excessive heat or direct sunlight.
Keep container tightly closed when not in use to prevent contamination and preserve product stability.
Avoid storing in very hot or very humid environments (e.g. directly under running hot shower).
Keep out of reach of children.
Use within the period-after-opening (PAO) indicated on the packaging and before the expiry date.
Duration
Intended for ongoing daily use as part of a long-term skincare routine. May be used twice daily; frequency can be adjusted based on skin tolerance and professional advice.
Onset
Provides immediate deep-cleansing and makeup-removing effects with each use; improvements in texture, clarity and radiance are typically noticeable from the first uses and continue to develop over several weeks of consistent daily use.
