Exuviance Gentle Cream Cleanser is a milky, soap-free, comfort-rich facial cleanser and make-up remover that lifts away make-up, surface oils and impurities while it lightly hydrates. Made for dry and sensitive skin, it leaves the complexion soft and comfortable rather than tight, making it the gentle cream cleanser for anyone whose skin dislikes foaming washes.

The quiet star of Exuviance Gentle Cream Cleanser is the PHA gluconolactone, a polyhydroxy acid that Exuviance describes as found naturally in skin, offering gentle exfoliating and anti-ageing benefits without sun sensitivity. Exuviance's founders pioneered research into AHAs and PHAs, and here a gentle dose of PHA works alongside skin conditioners and botanicals - marshmallow root, camomile, cucumber, rosemary and aloe - to target a smoother skin texture. The cream can be removed with a cotton wool pad or rinsed away with warm water, so it works as a thorough make-up removing cleanse at night and a gentle wash in the morning.

FAQS

Is Exuviance Gentle Cream Cleanser good for sensitive skin? +

Yes - Exuviance describes it as ideal for dry or sensitive skin. It is soap free, dermatologist and allergy tested, and its PHA, gluconolactone, is the gentle exfoliant the brand chooses for sensitive skin because it works without sun sensitivity. As with any new product, patch test first.

Does Gentle Cream Cleanser remove make-up? +

Yes. Exuviance calls it perfect as a make-up remover: it is formulated to cleanse away make-up, surface oils and impurities while lightly hydrating. Keep it away from the eyes themselves and use a dedicated eye make-up remover for mascara.

Do I need to rinse it off? +

Either works. Exuviance says to remove it with a cotton wool pad or rinse thoroughly with warm water and pat dry, so you can choose a gentle tissue-off cleanse or a full rinse.

What is gluconolactone? +

Gluconolactone is a polyhydroxy acid (PHA) found naturally in skin. Exuviance uses it for anti-ageing and gentle exfoliating benefits without sun sensitivity, and says sensitive skin types will find comfort in its gentle nature.

Can I use Exuviance Gentle Cream Cleanser with retinol? +

Yes. Exuviance notes that cosmetic retinol can make skin feel sensitive and dry, and recommends pairing it with the brand's gentle PHA formulations - which makes this soap-free PHA cream cleanser a comfortable evening partner for a retinol routine.

Which toner should I use with Gentle Cream Cleanser? +

HydraSoothe Refresh Toner, the brand's alcohol-free PHA and hyaluronic acid toner for dry and sensitive skin. Exuviance groups the two with A.G.E. Less Everyday in its hydrating routine for dry, sensitive skin.

How is it different from Deep Clean AHA Cleanser? +

Gentle Cream Cleanser is a milky cream with PHA for dry or sensitive skin. Deep Clean AHA Cleanser is a foaming gel with glycolic acid plus PHA, aimed at normal and combination skin that wants a deeper clean and more resurfacing.

Is Gentle Cream Cleanser fragrance free? +

It is not marketed as fragrance free: the ingredient list includes fragrance compounds that give it a light scent. If your skin is reactive to fragrance, patch test before using it on the whole face.

Can I use Exuviance Gentle Cream Cleanser during pregnancy or while breastfeeding? +

It contains PHA (gluconolactone) and no vitamin A, the ingredient most people are asked to avoid. Exuviance states there are no known safety concerns with using cosmetic products during pregnancy, but recommends that anyone pregnant, breastfeeding or planning a pregnancy seeks advice before using any skincare product. Cosmetic PHAs are generally considered suitable at this time, but please check with your midwife or GP before use.
