Foam Oilium Cleanser is specially formulated for oily or acne-prone skin that needs deep cleansing without sacrificing comfort or hydration. What sets it apart from other conventional cleansers is its 5.4 pH formula, very close to the skin's natural pH, allowing it to cleanse gently yet thoroughly without disrupting the skin's protective barrier. It is also free from sulphates, harsh detergents, silicones and fragrance, and its formula is vegan and cruelty-free, offering conscious, dermocompatible care.
1% Salicylic Acid is one of the key active ingredients in Foam Oilium Cleanser. As an exfoliant that penetrates inside the pore, it helps unclog pores, prevents them from becoming blocked and improves the appearance of imperfections. At the same time, this ingredient doesn't act alone: the formula combines it with Succinic Acid, which helps regulate sebum and has antimicrobial properties, and with Natural Moisturising Factors (NMFs), which offset any potential drying effect, leaving skin clean, soft and free from a tight feeling.
The formula of Foam Oilium Cleanser includes a selection of botanical extracts with purifying and soothing properties: Calendula (Calendula officinalis), known for its soothing properties; Burdock (Arctium majus), with a purifying action on the skin; Sage (Salvia officinalis), with a regulating effect; Ivy (Hedera helix) and Fucus vesiculosus, extracts of plant and marine origin; Lemon (Citrus limon), provided through the extract of its peel; and Saponaria officinalis, traditionally used for its cleansing properties. The formula is completed with Spirulina (Spirulina maxima), an algae rich in nutrients and antioxidants, and Vitamin E (Tocopherol), a powerful antioxidant that protects the skin from environmental damage.
Foam Oilium Cleanser is applied to damp skin on the face, neck and décolletage with a gentle massage, then rinsed off with water. As a cleansing step, it should always be the first step in the routine, as it is formulated to prepare the skin and optimise the absorption of the serums and treatments applied afterwards. It is important to avoid contact with mucous membranes and the eye area, and in case of irritation, rinse thoroughly with water; if it persists, discontinue use and consult a specialist.
No, this is actually one of its key differentiating points. Despite containing 1% Salicylic Acid for deep pore cleansing, the formula is designed not to dry out or cause a tight feeling thanks to several mechanisms: the cleansing agents are Betaines and Coco Glucosides, naturally derived and free from harsh sulphates; Natural Moisturising Factors (NMFs) keep the skin hydrated and reinforce its barrier; Prebiotics support a balanced skin microbiome; and its pH of 5.4 ensures the cleansing process is dermocompatible and respectful of the skin's natural acid mantle. The result is clean, soft, fresh and comfortable skin.
