The Body Shop Edelweiss Cleansing Concentrate facial cleanser 100ml — vegan gel-to-foam, gentle on dehydrated skin

The Body Shop Edelweiss Cleansing Concentrate is a vegan gel-to-foam facial wash that removes impurities and makeup while leaving skin soft, refreshed and comfortable.

Designed for daily use, this 100ml cleanser combines natural-origin ingredients with an Edelweiss extract sourced from the Italian Alps. The lightweight, translucent gel transforms into a gentle foam to cleanse away pollution, dirt and makeup without stripping moisture. Packaged in recyclable materials where facilities allow, the formula aims to refresh tired, dehydrated skin and retain a supple, luminous feel after cleansing.

How does this cleanser remove makeup and pollution without drying skin?

The gel-to-foam texture balances effective lift-off of impurities with a soft, non-drying finish. Surfactants in a gentle system create a fine foam that rinses clean yet preserves natural moisture, so skin feels purified rather than tight.

• Transforms from translucent gel to soft foam for thorough cleansing
• Removes makeup, grime and urban pollutants without harsh stripping
• Rinses away residue to leave skin smooth and comfortable

What role does edelweiss extract play in this formula?

Edelweiss extract is included for its resilience-related properties and antioxidant profile, derived from plants grown in high-altitude conditions. The extract supports the formula’s antioxidant performance, helping protect skin from external stressors and contributing to a refreshed-looking complexion.

• Contains edelweiss sourced from the Italian Alps
• Provides antioxidant support comparable to established antioxidant references
• Selected for stability in gentle skin-care formulations
