  • Clean, not squeaky

    Takes my make-up and the whole day off without that tight, stretched feeling. The pink makes me weirdly happy.

  • Simple and good

    Two pumps, lather, rinse. Skin feels fresh. That's all I want from a face wash and it delivers.

  • Great for my T-zone

    Keeps the shine down without drying my cheeks. On heavy make-up days I wash twice.

Questions

Before you ask

Anything else: a real person answers, usually within the hour.

Will it take off make-up?

Everyday make-up, yes. For long-wear or heavy make-up, wash twice.

I'm on the dry side. Will it strip my skin?

It's made for normal and oily skin and keeps the skin's moisture balance. If you're on the dry side, use it in the evening only.

When will it arrive?

Every order is made for you, which takes two working days, and then arrives in four to seven working days in the UK. Delivery is free over £45.

Can I send it back?

Yes, within 60 days, even opened. Write to us and we will tell you how; the refund goes back to the card you paid with.

What is the sample?

Every order brings a small sample from the range, chosen to go with what is in your bag.

How does it go with the rest?

Wash, then vitamin C, then sun protection. The set on this page puts them in your bag together, for less than buying them singly.

What does COSMOS mean?

COSMOS is an independent standard for natural and organic cosmetics: it checks where every ingredient comes from and how the formula is made.
