Love this essence, it calm my POD after 3 days. Only the refill opening could have a more spout-like shape, because when I pour the toner into the bottle, I always spill a lot.

Description
Our creamy, hydrating and mild Body Cleanser for sensitive and problem skin cleanses gently but effectively, leaving skin clean and soft.
The Body Cleanser is a non-foaming, sulphate- and oil-free, very light emulsion that cleanses thoroughly with plant-based and gentle surfactants, without disturbing the skin’s protective barrier. Plant-based glycerine leaves skin feeling hydrated and soft, without tightness.
Our top tip: The Body Cleanser can be used on kids and intimate areas, too. it's a great choice for when you want one cleansing product for the whole family.
Ingredients (inci)
Aqua, Glycerin, Polyglyceryl-2 Stearate, Glyceryl Stearate, Stearyl Alcohol, Sodium Levulinate, Potassium Sorbate, Citric Acid
Aqua
Solvent. Water. The main vehicle for our water based products
Glycerin
Humectant and skin protecting. Technically a sugar alcohol, glycerin is one of the oldest, most common and most versatile humectants used in cosmetics. It moisturises and protects the skin, accelerates skin barrier recovery and has antimicrobial properties, among other things. For our Cream we use vegetable, rapeseed-derived glycerin.
Polyglyceryl-2 Stearate
Surfactant - emulsifying. One third of the non-ionic plant-based Cosmos certified surfactant and emulsifier - i.e. an ingredient enabling us to mix water and oil - we’ve used in the Body Cleanser. It works to form the form the emulsion-like texture of the Cleanser while gently cleasning skin. Bonus: this emulsifier combo has been shown to selectively preserve and restore the cutaneous microflora of skin.
Glyceryl Stearate
Skin conditioning (emollient) and surfactant (emulsifying). One third of the non-ionic plant-based Cosmos certified surfactant and emulsifier - i.e. an ingredient enabling us to mix water and oil - we’ve used in the Body Cleanser. It works to form the form the emulsion-like texture of the Cleanser while gently cleansing skin. Bonus: this emulsifier combo has been shown to selectively preserve and restore the cutaneous microflora of skin.
Stearyl Alcohol
Skin conditoning (emollient), surfactant (emulsifying) and emulsion stabilising. One third of the non-ionic plant-based Cosmos certified surfactant and emulsifier - i.e. an ingredient enabling us to mix water and oil - we’ve used in the Body Cleanser. It works to form the form the emulsion-like texture of the Cleanser while gently cleansing skin. Bonus: this emulsifier combo has been shown to selectively preserve and restore the cutaneous microflora of skin.
Sodium Levulinate
Skin conditioning and preservative. Sodium levulinate is the sodium salt of levulinic acid, which is an organic acid derived from in this case sugarcane.
Potassium Sorbate
Preservative. Potassium sorbate is widely used in a variety of foods and personal care products. It works by inhibiting the growth of molds, yeasts and bacteria to preserve the freshness and quality of foods, beverages, or cosmetic products. Potassium sorbate is the potassium salt of sorbic acid, which is naturally occurring in some berries, although virtually all of the world's production of sorbic acid, as well as potassium sorbate, is manufactured synthetically. Together with sodium levulinate, dehydroacetic acid and p-anisic acid it makes up the preservative system in our toner.
Citric Acid
Buffering agent. Citric acid is a commonly used buffering, i.e. pH adjusting, agent in cosmetics. It is made through bacterial fermentation and shifts the pH of the product into the acidic range. This is closer to the natural pH of the skin, which may range from 4 to 7, but is usually thought to be between 5 and 6, with recent studies, however, indicating it to be below 5.

Formulated for sensitive & problem skin in our own lab
Our owners, CEO Kristina and cosmetic chemist Jaana, formulate all our products in our Helsinki lab, and test them on themselves - both have a long history of sensitive and problem skin.
Gentle & skin friendly preservatives
We've created a unique preservative system for the Body Cleanser, to minimise overlap with our other products, using gentle preservatives, primarily organic acids and their salt forms. Check out our ingredient section above to learn more.
Allergy-labelled
All our products carry the Finnish Allergy, Skin and Asthma Federation's independent Allergy-label.
Balanced pH for healthy skin
The Body Cleanser has a pH around 5.5 (healthy skin's own pH is slightly acidic, between 4.8 and 5.5) and will not upset or irritate skin.
A minimum of ingredients
The Cleanser contains only eight ingredients. Formulated with plant-based and gentle cleansing agents that cleanse without foaming and without upsetting the skin barrier. The Cleanser is a light emulsion with plenty of natural humectants to hydrate skin, but is still completely oil-free, making it ideal for all kinds of sensitive and problem skin.
