Aesop Amazing Face Cleanser — Travel Size 100 mL, Non-Drying Daily Cleanser for Oily & Combination Skin

Aesop Amazing Face Cleanser is a gentle, non-drying daily face wash that removes surface grime and excess oils while preserving skin's natural moisture balance.

This travel-sized 100 mL formulation is designed for everyday use on oily, combination and open-pored skin types, especially in warmer or more humid climates. Formulated with citrus and floral botanical extracts, it foams readily to lift impurities without leaving a tight or stripped sensation. Bottled sustainably with a high recycled-plastic content, the cleanser suits routine morning and evening cleansing and complements targeted treatments or moisturizers.

How does this cleanser remove oil without drying the skin?

The formula balances effective surfactants with botanical botanicals that help dissolve sebum while maintaining the skin’s protective lipids. Instead of harsh detergents, it relies on milder cleansing agents and hydrating extracts so the skin feels clean but not taut.

• Includes mandarin rind to assist in removing impurities with a bright citrus note
• Mild foaming action that avoids aggressive stripping of natural oils
• Lavender and ylang-ylang provide calming aromatic support
• Rinses clear to leave a balanced, refreshed surface

When and how should I use Aesop Amazing Face Cleanser?

Use twice daily—morning and evening—for routine facial hygiene. Apply a small amount to wet hands, work into a lather, massage across face and neck, then rinse thoroughly with warm water; follow with toner or moisturizer as needed.

• Morning: freshens skin and removes overnight oils before skincare or makeup
• Evening: clears pollutants, sunscreen and impurities from the day
• Travel-sized 100 mL fits carry-on or toiletry bag for easy trips
• Suitable for daily use without over-exfoliation or irritation

What skin types and climates benefit most from this formula?

This cleanser targets oily and combination skin prone to visible pores, and it performs well in warm or humid environments that can amplify oil production. Those with dry, sensitive skin should test first or use less frequently, since the product is optimized to address excess surface oils.

• Ideal for oily, combination and open-pored complexions
• Recommended for warm or humid climates where oiliness increases
• Not primarily formulated for very dry or reactive skin types
• Vegan and free from parabens and animal testing

What are the notable ingredients and sustainability features?

The cleanser blends botanical extracts chosen for cleansing and sensory appeal rather than artificial fragrances or heavy emulsifiers. Aesop emphasizes ingredient safety and environmental considerations, including high recycled content in its packaging.

• Key botanicals: mandarin rind, ylang-ylang, lavender oil for cleansing and aroma
• Formulated without parabens and not tested on animals
• Bottles contain a minimum of 97% recycled plastic to reduce waste
• Vegan formula using ingredients with established safety profiles
