✓ Gel-to-Foam Daily Cleanser | ✓ Oat Amino Acids Support the Skin Barrier | ✓ All Skin Types, Including Sensitive

ZO Skin Health Gentle Cleanser is Dr Zein Obagi's everyday gel-to-foam face wash: it lifts away oil, make-up and the day's impurities while replenishing hydration, so skin is left clean, soft and refreshed rather than tight or stripped. It is step one of ZO's Getting Skin Ready regimen for all skin types, morning and evening, and the cleanser to reach for when your skin is reactive or simply does not get on with foaming washes.

The silky gel turns to a light foam on damp skin. Sodium lauroyl oat amino acids cleanse while supporting the skin barrier and helping to prevent post-cleansing dryness, and a botanical extract blend of green tea, meadowsweet, barley and sea fennel adds antioxidant support. Glycerin keeps the finish comfortable. ZO Skin Health Gentle Cleanser is formulated without parabens, phthalates or gluten, which is why it sits at the start of nearly every ZO protocol.

FAQS

Is ZO Skin Health Gentle Cleanser the best face wash for sensitive skin? +

It is ZO's cleanser for all skin types, and the one the brand places at the start of its regimen for sensitive and reactive skin. Oat amino acids support the barrier while cleansing, so skin is left comfortable rather than tight. If your skin is very dry, ZO Hydrating Cleanser is the richer alternative.

Can I use ZO Gentle Cleanser every day? +

Yes. It is designed for twice-daily use, morning and evening, as step one of the Getting Skin Ready regimen.

Does ZO Skin Health Gentle Cleanser remove make-up? +

Yes. The gel-to-foam formula lifts away make-up, oil and impurities. For heavy or long-wear make-up and sunscreen, cleanse twice in the evening.

What is the difference between ZO Gentle Cleanser and ZO Exfoliating Cleanser? +

Gentle Cleanser is a non-exfoliating hydrating wash for all skin types, including sensitive skin. Exfoliating Cleanser contains salicylic acid and jojoba beads and is designed for normal to oily skin. If you are unsure, start with Gentle Cleanser.

What do I use after ZO Gentle Cleanser? +

Follow the Getting Skin Ready order: cleanse, exfoliate (Dual Action Scrub or Exfoliating Polish), then tone (Complexion Renewal Pads, or Calming Toner for reactive skin). Your treatment serums, retinol and moisturiser go on afterwards.

Is ZO Gentle Cleanser suitable after professional skin treatments? +

It is the cleanser ZO recommends while skin is settling after professional treatments, because it cleanses without exfoliating acids or beads. Follow the aftercare advice your practitioner gives you.

Do I need a consultation to buy ZO Skin Health from Adore Your Skin? +

Yes. ZO is a professional range, so Adore Your Skin supplies it following a short online skin consultation with our nurse-led team. Complete the ZO consultation on our site and, once approved, you will receive an access code that unlocks ordering on every ZO product page.

How long does a 200ml tube of ZO Gentle Cleanser last? +

Used twice a day with a small amount each time, a 200ml tube typically lasts around three months. ZO also makes a 60ml travel size.

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

It contains no retinoids, salicylic acid or hydroxy acids, and is lightly fragranced. ZO does not publish pregnancy guidance, so please check with your midwife or GP before using it during pregnancy or while breastfeeding.
