Product information
ZO Skin Health Exfoliating Cleanser is an exfoliating cleansing gel with salicylic acid and fine jojoba beads for normal to oily and blemish-prone skin. It removes oil, makeup residue and dead skin cells in one step, leaving your skin clean and smooth for the products that follow.
What does the Exfoliating Cleanser do?
Oily skin produces more sebum than it can clear. That sebum mixes with dead skin cells and clogs the pores: the basis of blackheads and breakouts. This cleanser tackles that in two ways. The jojoba beads polish the surface clean mechanically, while the salicylic acid dissolves oil deep inside the pore. Because you rinse the gel off after a minute, it stays gentle enough for daily use.
Who is it for?
- Normal to oily skin and combination skin with an oily T-zone
- Blemish-prone skin with blackheads, clogged pores or breakouts
- Skin that looks dull or thickened
Less suitable if your skin is dry, sensitive or irritated, or if you have just had a peel or laser treatment. In that case, choose the Gentle Cleanser or the Hydrating Cleanser.
Key ingredients and how they work
- Salicylic acid is oil-soluble, so it penetrates into the pore. It loosens built-up skin cells so pores clog less easily.
- Jojoba beads (jojoba esters) are round and soft. Rather than scratching, they roll away dead skin cells.
- Niacinamide supports the skin barrier and helps calm red, reactive skin.
What can you expect?
Right after rinsing, your skin feels clean and smooth, with no greasy film. After a few weeks of daily use, most people see less shine and fewer clogged pores. A slight feeling of tightness in the first week is normal; if it persists, use the cleanser once a day.
Tip from our skin therapist
Use the Exfoliating Cleanser in the evening, when you need to remove oil, makeup and sunscreen. In the morning, water or a milder cleanser is often enough. Pair it with the Oil Control Pads if your skin is very oily, and with Daily Power Defense as your daily base.
