Repechage Hydra 4 Gentle Facial Cleanser for Sensitive Skin, 177 mL — Creamy, Seaweed & Lactic Acid

Repechage Hydra 4 Cleanser is a creamy, fragrance-free daily facial cleanser that removes makeup, provides light lactic-acid exfoliation, and soothes sensitive skin with four seaweed extracts plus coconut and olive oils.

This gentle, marine-based formula was created to cleanse without upsetting delicate skin: it dissolves impurities and waterproof makeup while supporting the skin’s moisture balance. Lightweight lactic acid refines surface texture, and botanical oils plus St. John’s Wort help comfort and hydrate. The texture is creamy and non-foaming, designed to rinse clean or be removed with a soft cloth as the first step in a calming skincare routine.

How does this cleanser remove makeup without drying sensitive skin?

The cleanser blends nourishing oils with mild surfactants to lift oil-soluble makeup, including waterproof products, without stripping natural lipids. Its creamy, emollient base leaves a soft film that protects skin during cleansing, so moisture isn’t lost.

• Creamy emollient formula dissolves lipstick, mascara, and stubborn sunscreens.
• Coconut and olive oils condition the skin surface while cleansing.
• Non-irritating surfactants avoid tightness and over-drying.

Will the lactic acid be too strong for sensitive or reactive skin?

Hydra 4 uses a low concentration of lactic acid to gently promote surface renewal without aggressive exfoliation. The mild acid works alongside soothing botanicals to refine texture while minimizing the chance of irritation when used as directed.

• Low-dose lactic acid for subtle, non-abrasive exfoliation.
• Formulated with calming seaweed extracts and St. John’s Wort.
• Suitable for daily use; discontinue if sensitivity increases.

What sensory experience and finish should I expect after using this cleanser?

Expect a non-foaming, silky cream that spreads easily and rinses to a soft, balanced finish. Skin feels clean but not stripped—ready for serums or moisturizers—while botanical notes provide a gentle, natural scent rather than synthetic fragrance.

• Silky, non-foaming texture that glides on wet or dry skin.
• Leaves a hydrated, smooth surface ideal for follow-up products.
• Fragrance-free formula with subtle botanical undertones.

How does the seaweed complex contribute to skin comfort and hydration?

Repechage’s seaweed extracts are rich in vitamins, minerals, and polysaccharides that help support the skin barrier and maintain hydration. In this cleanser, the marine botanicals work with oils and soothing agents to reduce tightness and preserve a flexible, comfortable feel after cleansing.

• Four marine extracts provide antioxidant and conditioning benefits.
• Polysaccharides help retain surface moisture during cleansing.
• Combined with oils to deliver a spa-like, calming cleanse.

Who is this for: Repechage Hydra 4 Cleanser is designed for people with sensitive, dry-to-normal, or reactive skin who want a reliable daily cleanser that removes makeup, offers gentle resurfacing, and maintains hydration. It’s a solid choice for those who prefer fragrance-free products, enjoy marine-based skincare, or need a non-foaming, creamy formula that preps the skin for subsequent treatments. If you have very acne-prone or medically compromised skin, consult a dermatologist before introducing any exfoliant.
