Aveda Gentle Facial Cleanser All-Sensitive — Fragrance-Free 5 fl oz, 98% Naturally Derived for Sensitive Skin

Aveda Botanical Kinetics All-Sensitive Cleanser is a fragrance-free, 98% naturally derived* facial cleanser formulated to remove makeup, impurities, and pollutants while supporting the skin's barrier.

This lightweight daily cleanser blends olive and coconut oil‑derived surfactants with certified organic baobab oil to cleanse without harsh stripping. Designed for sensitive skin, it avoids common irritants—no fragrance, drying alcohol, SLS/SLES, parabens, silicones, or animal-derived ingredients—so skin feels clean, calm, and comfortable after use. The formula meets ISO 16128 criteria for naturally derived content and aligns with Aveda’s vegan, B Corp, and Leaping Bunny commitments.

How does this cleanser remove makeup and pollutants without irritating sensitive skin?

The formula uses gentle surfactants derived from olive and coconut oils that lift away makeup, sunscreen, and environmental grime without aggressive foaming. Baobab oil supports the skin barrier, helping to preserve moisture so cleansing doesn’t leave skin tight.

• Olive and coconut oil-derived cleansers for effective, mild removal
• Aroma-free composition reduces fragrance-related irritation risk
• Baobab oil helps maintain moisture and barrier feel post-cleanse

What skin types and sensitivities is this product suited for?

Although formulated for sensitive skin, the gentle action and lack of common irritants make it appropriate for normal and combination skin types that need a mild daily cleanser. It’s not a medicated treatment, so it pairs well with targeted serums or prescribed skincare as recommended by a professional.

• Ideal for reactive or fragrance-sensitive skin
• Works well for anyone seeking a non-stripping daily cleanser
• Compatible with most moisturizers, including Aveda All-Sensitive Lotion

How should I use the cleanser for best results?

Apply to a damp face and neck, massaging gently with fingertips to dissolve makeup and impurities, then rinse thoroughly with warm water. Use morning and evening, and follow with a hydrating moisturizer to lock in comfort.

• Massage onto damp skin, avoiding the immediate eye area
• Rinse with warm water and pat dry—do not overdry
• Follow with a gentle moisturizer, like Aveda All-Sensitive Lotion

What ingredients are intentionally excluded from this formula?

Aveda designed this cleanser to omit ingredients that commonly irritate skin or conflict with clean formulations. It also meets Aveda’s cruelty-free and vegan standards for conscientious beauty routines.

• No synthetic fragrance, drying alcohol, SLS/SLES, or silicones
• Free from parabens, phthalates, mineral oil, petrolatum, and formaldehyde donors
• Contains no animal-derived ingredients; product is vegan and Leaping Bunny approved

Who is this for: This product is for anyone seeking a gentle, everyday facial cleanser—especially those with sensitive or fragrance-intolerant skin who want effective cleansing without harsh ingredients. It suits users who prefer formulas with high naturally derived content and ethical certifications, and those looking for a reliable, non-stripping step before serums and moisturizers.
