CLARINS Soothing Foaming Face Cleanser for Very Dry & Sensitive Skin — 4.2 oz, Soap-Free with Organic Shea Butter

Clarins Soothing Gentle Foaming Face Cleanser is a soap-free, shea butter–enriched foaming wash formulated to gently remove impurities while comforting very dry and sensitive skin.

This lightweight rinse-off foam uses Organic Shea Butter to help hydrate and protect the skin’s surface as it cleans. Designed for daily use on very dry or reactive complexions, the formula is free of harsh sulfates and cleanses without stripping natural oils. The soft foam texture lifts away makeup and pollution while leaving skin feeling supple, soothed, and ready for serums or moisturizers.

How does this cleanser soothe very dry or sensitive skin?

The Clarins formula focuses on gentle surfactants and nourishing shea butter to preserve the skin’s barrier while removing dirt. Instead of aggressive detergents, it relies on a mild foaming action to cleanse without tightness or irritation.

• Contains Organic Shea Butter to help replenish lipids and soften skin.
• Soap-free and SLS-free for reduced irritation risk.
• Mild foaming texture that cleans without over-drying.
• Suitable for daily morning and evening use.

Will it remove makeup and sunscreen effectively?

Yes — the cleanser dissolves light makeup and everyday sunscreen while remaining gentle on sensitive skin. For heavier makeup or waterproof formulas, pairing with a cleansing oil or balm first will improve removal.

• Dissolves light foundation, tinted moisturizers, and daily sunscreen residues.
• Works well as a second-step cleanser after oil or micellar pre-cleanse.
• Rinse-off foam simplifies rinsing for a clean finish.
• Avoids the eye area for sensitive lashes and lids.

How should I use it in my skincare routine?

Use a dime-sized amount on damp skin, massage into a soft lather, and rinse. Apply cool water in the morning to refresh and warm water in the evening to soothe; follow with toner, serum, and moisturizer tailored to dry or sensitive needs.

• Apply to face and neck; avoid the immediate eye area.
• Massage from the center outward in circular motions.
• Rinse thoroughly and pat skin dry; follow with hydrating products.
• Use twice daily for consistent comfort and cleanliness.

What results can I expect and how quickly?

Most users notice a softer, less tight feeling immediately after rinsing. With consistent use, skin texture appears smoother and better primed to absorb moisturizers and treatments.

• Instant: clean, soft-feeling skin without a stripped sensation.
• Short term: reduced surface dryness and improved comfort after several uses.
• Long term: supports a healthier-feeling skin barrier when used with hydrating products.
• Best paired with Clarins serums and creams for dry, sensitive skin.

Who is this for? This foaming face cleanser is designed for people with very dry, reactive, or easily irritated skin who want a gentle daily wash that cleans without harsh detergents. It’s ideal for those seeking a mild, hydrating option that pairs well with targeted serums and rich moisturizers. If you routinely use heavy makeup or waterproof sun protection, consider a two-step cleanse (oil or balm followed by this foam) for complete removal.
