302 CLEANSER

for mildness and very effective cleansing.
Available Sizes

8 oz / 240 ml
32 oz / 960 ml
Product Information
Get the right cleanser first. 302 CLEANSER is an excellent choice for normal, day to day cleansing.
Most cleansers defat the skin and set up an irritation response for the next thing you apply. Avoid the trap of squeaky clean, parched skin. If your skin is oily one day and dry the next, 302 CLEANSER, by itself, will help stabilize that see-saw.
This is our flagship cleanser formula in the professional market for over twelve years. We make every batch ourselves to exacting standards to ensure you have fresh and effective ingredients.
It is a good idea to have two or even three cleansers to rotate through. This will keep the skin bright and fresh.
Key Benefits
Immediate skin softening
Effective cleansing
Never strips skin dry
Works for any skin type
Targeted Skin Type
Sensitive to normal skin, slightly dry to slightly oily.
Skincare Concerns
Sensitivity to cleansers can occur easily with highly charged acid laced formulas that bulk up foam and strip the skin of its own beneficial guardians.
302 CLEANSER is creamy and soft while going deep to remove skin build up of cell waste and environment deposits. Never a dry after feel.
Have several cleansers that you rotate through for best results. We recommend FACE & BODY BAR and REVIVE (a cleanser and a lotion - unique in all of skincare) as your alternates.

Introduction
This works very well for skin that is aging, normal, on the dry side, maybe sensitive but not unstable. Skin that does not hold moisture well and feels thin, maybe a bit stiff and inelastic, missing turgor and resilience will find a better life with 302 CLEANSER.
Very effective in makeup removal; along hairline and jawline are focus spots. Okay around eyes.
HOW TO USE:
Shake container well.
Wet hands and apply cleanser like a lotion. Smooth in.
Your skin will feel sticky. That’s good.
Wet hands and apply cleanser again, a smaller amount. This helps to lift ‘the unwanted’ from your skin.
Add warm water to work up a creamy all over lotion feel.
Add more warm water to remove and rinse well.
Done.
No squeaky, dry, taut feel; just soft, mild, natural response.
For your skin if these conditions exist:
Normal/dry/somewhat sensitive
Not for your skin if these conditions exist:
Dermatitis
Recommended frequency of use:
As needed but prefer three to four times (3x-4x) per week max and rotate through other cleansers like REVIVE and FACE & BODY BAR.
Actives while using 302 CLEANSER:
ANY - but allow thirty (30) minutes before applying any leave-on to your skin - with the exception of REVIVE.
Leave-ons acceptable:
ANY - but allow thirty (30) minutes before applying any leave-on to your skin - with the exception of REVIVE.
Avoid:
Scrubs
Acid peels
Benzoyl peroxide
This is where most skincare goes wrong. It’s the chemistry at fault. Marketers instruct formulators to make foam. Foam sells. The formulator, who must work his hands in that foam, knows that foam is bad. It dries and defats the skin. Strips it. In a short time the skin is sub-clinically (as in not yet visible) or clinically (as in visible) inflamed.
The wrong cleanser can ruin your skin for everything you put on after that. It can turn the most promising active you have purchased into a time bomb because of a noticeable increase in histamine response. Alarm bells in the skin go off. You then put on an active and may be quickly thrown into inflammation. Over time the skin weakens, at best. You think it is the active. It’s the cleanser.
Cleansers today are stealth skin killers. Day by day. Smell great, too. But you’re buying a problem.
Foam sells. The folks who lament the use of certain anionic surfactants like the arch villain Sodium Lauryl Sulfate (SLS) apparently ignore the real issue. And the real issue? Foam.
To get foam, big thick creamy foam, you must link together various surfactants. Chief among these are betaines. Look on any label proclaiming it is SLS free - you will find betaines. Look on any cleanser label for that matter. Betaines are serious skin irritants, far more so than SLS and they are used to link to primary anionics to form Big Foam. This is often augmented by the use of amides…anyway, the chemistry is involved, but you get the point.
Your goal in cleansing your face is to remove the bad and preserve the good. That cannot be done with long chain highly charged surfactants that make Big Foam. Try asking your dog to eat with a fork.
We have several lotion cleansers and a great FACE & BODY BAR and a cleansing helper of dry minerals. They are all very mild and give you the advantage of washing your skin without also setting up a first rate histamine reaction. No betaines, no amides, only ultra mild amphoterics and cationic surfactants in our lotion cleansers.
Read through each one. You won’t go wrong no matter which you choose - though our ACNE SULFUR CLEANSER is probably not for cool grandmas.
We recommend you have two and three cleanser alternatives. REVIVE is a cleanser and moisturizer especially formulated for unstable skin. It is not in the list here as a cleanser but consider that as your second cleanser. A third cleanser would be FACE & BODY BAR.
If you will rotate through these during the week the results of improved texture, resilience, tone and brightening are unmistakable.
