Product Type: Skincare

This gel facial cleanser is a clear, low-foam face wash built on coco glucoside, a mild cleansing agent made from coconut and sugar, with glycerin, aloe, cucumber, chamomile and rice extract. Orion Wellness sells it as Cleanse & Clarify in a 4 oz amber pump bottle, and it is made for the everyday wash, morning and night.

  • A sugar-based cleanser. Coco glucoside is one of the gentlest surfactant families used in face washes.
  • Glycerin comes second. Right after water and ahead of the cleanser, so skin feels comfortable once rinsed.
  • Pump, not squeeze. One press dispenses a fingertip of gel with no tube to roll up.
  • A second-cleanse fit. The maker pairs it with an oil cleanser for nights with makeup.

Why a Gel Cleanser Foams Less

A gel facial cleanser like this one uses xanthan gum, a plant thickener, to give its water base a soft, slippery body. The foam you get depends on which cleanser sits inside, and glucosides make a small, fine lather rather than a mountain of bubbles. Low foam does not mean a weaker wash: the surfactant loosens oil and grime the same way, it simply skips the big suds that many people associate with that squeaky, tight feeling afterward.

Ingredients: distilled water (aqua), glycerin, coco glucoside, xanthan gum, aloe vera extract (Aloe barbadensis leaf extract), cucumber extract (Cucumis sativus fruit extract), chamomile extract (Matricaria recutita flower extract), rice extract (Oryza sativa extract), benzyl alcohol, benzoic acid, dehydroacetic acid, citric acid.

Thirty Seconds at the Sink

Wet your face, press out a little gel and massage it in small circles for 30 to 60 seconds, which is the time Orion Wellness recommends, then rinse with lukewarm water. That minute matters more than the amount: the cleanser needs contact time to loosen sunscreen and the day's buildup. Pat dry and go straight on to serum or moisturizer while skin is still slightly damp. Lukewarm water keeps the routine comfortable, since hot water strips more than any gentle cleanser does.

Who the Formula Suits

It is made for people who want an uncomplicated daily wash, with no beads, no acids and no essential oils on the ingredient list. Its soft finish suits normal, combination and drier skin alike. If you wear long-wear foundation or waterproof mascara, take it off first with an oil or balm cleanser and follow with this gel, the double cleanse the maker itself suggests.

Keep the gel out of your eyes, and if it slips in, rinse with plenty of clean water.

Cleanse and Clarify Every Morning

Is a gel cleanser good for dry skin? A mild one can be. With glucosides and glycerin rather than harsh sulfates, this gel rinses clean without the stripped feeling dry skin dislikes.

How much should I use per wash? One pump is usually enough for the face; add a second when you wash your neck too.

Why is the bottle amber glass? Amber filters light, which helps plant extracts keep their character on a sunny bathroom shelf.
