Gentle Clean is a cleanser especially for skin that is sensitive, fragile, dry, itchy, or damaged, and is especially appropriate for persons with dry skin, rosacea, eczema, allergy-prone skin, psoraisis, diabetes or those recovering from cancer therapy.
Gentle Clean works well for skin cleaning during exfoliation for skin renewal, when using chemical peels or skin resurfacing treatments.
Many dermatologists recommend using a gentle soap or cleanser on distressed or problem skin.
However, even if your skin is healthy, this very mild cleanser will help clean and protect your skin.
Effectively cleans and removes make-up.
Customers tell us that the bar works very well to removing mascara and other color cosmetics.
This very gentle cleanser was originally designed for the fragile skin of hospital patients, and specifically formulated to clean the fragile skin of cancer patients after radiation or chemotherapy.
Most cleansers cause damage to very fragile and damaged skin. Fragile skin can literally be dissolved by strong soaps.
Because this cleanser cleans gently, without destroying the skin's natural protective acid mantle, this soap will actually help to "normalize" and balance the skin. Oily skin conditions will become less oily, while dry skin conditions will become less dry.
Gentle Clean has been field tested for four years. Nurses and physicians report that the cleanser works very well on sensitive and fragile skin such as which occurs with Rosacea, Eczema, in the bedridden, or after cancer therapy. Some nurses and physicians have told us that they think the cleanser has healing properties but we believe that the very careful preparation of the product produces the good results.
Many soap and cleansers not only remove surface dirt and oils, but they actually damage the skin by destroying its natural protective "Acid mantle", the skin's lipid and antioxidant barrier. This damage leads to the generation of more skin-damaging free radicals and creates a dry, flaky skin, which stimulates the production of more oil.
The clear, translucent cleansing bars contain no harsh detergents, caustics, glycerin, or "flash" foaming agents. The pH of 7.8 is near neutrality in contrast to the very basic pH of most soap and skin cleansers.
Also available in a 4 oz. bar.
