Drunk Elephant Beste No.9 Jelly Cleanser Travel Size 150ml — Gentle pH-Balanced Gel Wash, Removes Makeup & Sunscreen

Drunk Elephant Beste No. 9 Jelly Cleanser is a gentle, jelly-textured gel wash that dissolves makeup, sunscreen, and excess oil while rinsing clean without leaving residue.

This travel-size 150 ml/5 fl oz cleanser combines mild surfactants and makeup-dissolving emollients at a balanced pH of about 5.5, designed to lift impurities without stripping the skin. The formula includes humectant glycerin and cantaloupe fruit extract to support hydration and comfort, and excludes Drunk Elephant’s Suspicious 6 ingredients such as essential oils, silicones, and fragrances.

How does Beste No. 9 remove stubborn makeup and sunscreen?

Beste No. 9 uses a blend of mild surfactants to break up oils and oil-based cosmetics and makeup-dissolving emollients that help lift pigments from the skin’s surface. It emulsifies with water so residues rinse away cleanly, leaving minimal film.

• Mild surfactants dissolve oils and debris.
• Emollients help break down waterproof makeup and sunscreen.
• Rinses to a clean finish without harsh stripping.

Is this cleanser suitable for sensitive or dry skin?

The formula is developed at a skin-friendly pH and avoids common irritants like fragrances, essential oils, and drying alcohols, making it a good option for many sensitive or dry skin types. Glycerin and cantaloupe extract add moisturizing support during cleansing.

• pH ~5.5 to respect the skin barrier.
• Hydrating glycerin replenishes moisture lost during washing.
• Free from the Suspicious 6 ingredients often linked to irritation.

How should I use this jelly cleanser for best results?

Squeeze a small amount into your palm and massage onto wet or dry skin; add water to emulsify and work into a light lather, then rinse thoroughly. It can be used nightly or alternated with other cleansers depending on your routine and makeup load.

• Massage onto dry skin to dissolve heavy makeup, or wet skin for a lighter cleanse.
• Add water to create a milky emulsion and rinse completely.
• Use nightly or alternate with other cleansers as needed.

• Balanced pH to protect the skin barrier.
• Ingredient choices meant to minimize irritation and residue.
• Cruelty-free and dermatologist-tested formulation.
