                                                                          WHAT EVERYONE’S ASKING:

                                                                          What is the difference between a normal cleanser and foaming cleanser?

                                                                          The difference between a normal cleanser and a foaming face cleanser comes down to lather. A normal cleanser has a light lather, while a foaming face wash has a more frothy or foaming lather. While both types of cleansers work to help remove dirt, oil, and impurities, it’s really a matter of preference when it comes to wanting a little lather or a lot of lather.

                                                                          Can I use this foaming face wash for double cleansing?

                                                                          Yes, you can absolutely use our Foaming Face Wash for Double Cleansing. We recommend starting your Double Cleanse with an oil-based cleanser first, like our Checks and Balances™ Milky Oil Cleanser + Makeup Melter, to help dissolve makeup. Then use Checks and Balances™ Frothy Face Wash to wash away any remaining residue and impurities, for skin that’s purified and refreshed.

                                                                          What makes Frothy Face Wash unique?

                                                                          Our Frothy Face Wash is our #1 best-selling cleanser, and not only that: it’s suitable for all skin types and gentle enough for daily use. It’s also intuitive – it rinses away excess oils that can lead to blemishes while balancing dry and oily zones, so skin feels balanced and comfortably clean.
