Inside the Ingredients

Ingredient Color KeyExtremely SafeReasonably SafeProceed with CautionInsufficient Data

Acure effectively utilizes two cleansing agents (AKA surfactants): lauryl glucoside and decyl glucoside. They make for a thorough, yet gentle, cleansing experience. They stand apart from harsher synthetic ethoxylated surfactants such as sodium laureth sulfate, commonly found in mainstream washes. When vegetable-derived cleansing agents like lauryl glucoside and decyl glucoside are put to good use at such a great price as in this cleansing gel, there’s no logical reason to go the synthetic route.

Acure Organics is big on stem cells and fermented ingredients. It’s hard to say how much benefit those type of ingredients offer in a wash-off product, but I certainly don’t begrudge Acure the added nutrients afforded by echinacea stem cell cultures and fermented resveratrol extract.

Consistently Good

Acure rarely disappoints. They have excellent prices, clean ingredients, and products that deliver on their promises.

This Facial Cleansing Gel is no exception.

Alternative Cleanser

If a gel cleanser isn’t your thing, be sure to check out Acure’s Sensitive Facial Cleanser. This creamy, low-foam formula is also well-priced and full of pure, natural ingredients.

What does brightening gel cleanser do?

A skin energizing gel-to-foam formula that gently cleanses and dissolves impurities to reveal a brighter complexion, replenishing the skin barrier with hydrating electrolytes.

Should I use cleansing gel everyday?

One should use a cleanser twice a day, particularly during the morning and the nighttime before going off to bed. This is because using it in the morning will help wash away any kind of dirt that might have migrated from the nose, mouth, or hair to the skin.

It's gentle enough to be used 3x/week, and leaves skin feeling brighter, firmer, and more youthful.
