NEOSTRATA PHA Facial Cleanser Gentle Gel — 6.8 fl oz Fragrance-Free, Soap-Free Exfoliating Wash for Sensitive Skin

NEOSTRATA PHA Facial Cleanser is a soap-free, non-foaming gel that gently cleanses and lightly exfoliates sensitive or reactive skin without compromising the skin's moisture barrier.

This fragrance-free gel wash uses a gentle polyhydroxy acid (PHA) to remove surface impurities while supporting the skin's natural protective layer. It is formulated to prepare skin for serums and moisturizers by clearing away oils, makeup residue, and dead skin cells in a way that minimizes irritation and dryness. The clear, non-foaming texture rinses clean and is compatible with daily routines for those who need a milder alternative to traditional foaming cleansers.

How does this cleanser remove dirt without irritating sensitive skin?

The formulation avoids harsh surfactants and added fragrances that can trigger reactivity, relying instead on gentle cleansing agents and PHA to lift away impurities. PHAs provide mild exfoliation on the skin’s surface so the barrier is preserved while still improving skin texture.

• Soap-free gel base that cleans without stripping oils
• Polyhydroxy Acid (PHA) for gentle surface exfoliation
• Fragrance-free and non-foaming to reduce irritation risk
• Rinses clean without leaving a tight or dry feeling

Will this product work with my existing skincare routine?

Yes — the cleanser is designed to prep skin for active treatments and moisturizers by removing barriers like excess oil and dead skin cells. Because it’s mild and non-acidic in feel, it layers well beneath serums, retinoids, and hydrators without increasing sensitivity when used as directed.

• Use morning and/or evening as the first step in your routine
• Follow with targeted serums or moisturizers suitable for sensitive skin
• Compatible with sunscreen application after daytime moisturizing

How should I use the NEOSTRATA PHA Gentle Gel to get the best results?

Apply a small amount to damp skin, massage gently across face, then rinse thoroughly with lukewarm water. Avoid vigorous scrubbing; pat skin dry and continue with your treatment and hydration steps to lock in comfort and nourishment.

• Apply to damp skin; no need to lather vigorously
• Rinse well and pat dry — avoid rubbing
• Follow immediately with hydrator or treatment products

What skin types benefit most from this cleanser?

The product is specifically formulated for very sensitive, reactive, or barrier-compromised skin that reacts to stronger cleansers. It also suits anyone seeking a gentler daily wash that still removes makeup and environmental buildup without foaming or added fragrance.

• Very sensitive and reactive complexions
• Skin prone to dryness or barrier sensitivity
• Those who prefer fragrance-free, dermatologist-developed formulas

Who is this for: NEOSTRATA PHA Facial Cleanser is intended for people who require a no-fuss, low-irritation facial wash that still provides cleansing and light exfoliation. It is ideal for those transitioning away from harsher foaming soaps, anyone managing reactive skin concerns, or users who want a straightforward, dermatologist-founded product to integrate into gentle daily regimens.
