Balmonds Gentle Face Wash 125ml

The thoughtfully selected active ingredients work together to cleanse, soothe, and support skin health. Prebiotic inulin helps maintain a healthy skin microbiome, strengthening natural defences. Epsom salt (magnesium sulphate) provides softening and anti-inflammatory benefits. Glycerin (vegetable derived) offers gentle, non-stripping hydration. Decyl glucoside – a mild, plant-based surfactant – creates a soft foam without irritation. Borage extract brings calming essential fatty acids; rosehip extract delivers antioxidants and regenerative support; sea buckthorn extract provides vitamins and healing properties; and bladderwrack extract offers minerals and soothing benefits. Citric acid adjusts pH gently, while potassium sorbate and dehydroacetic acid act as mild, natural-origin preservatives. Xanthan gum provides a pleasant, spreadable texture.  

To use, dispense a small amount of the Gentle Face Wash into damp hands and lather gently. Massage onto the face using soft, circular motions, avoiding the immediate eye area if particularly sensitive. Rinse thoroughly with lukewarm water and pat dry. The low-foaming formula effectively removes dirt, excess oil, and light makeup without stripping the skin’s natural moisture barrier or causing that tight, uncomfortable feeling associated with harsher cleansers. It is gentle enough for use morning and evening, even on broken or weeping skin (though caution should be taken to avoid stinging on open lesions). For best results, follow with a suitable moisturiser such as Balmonds Daily Moisturiser or Omega-Rich Facial Oil.  

This face wash is ideal for those who have struggled to find a cleanser that does not trigger flare-ups of eczema, dermatitis, or rosacea. Its minimalist, fragrance-free composition eliminates common irritants such as essential oils, alcohol, parabens, and synthetic perfumes. The pump bottle ensures hygienic dispensing and minimises waste. From its prebiotic inulin and Epsom salt to its blend of borage, rosehip, sea buckthorn, and bladderwrack, Balmonds Gentle Face Wash proves that even the most reactive, sensitive skin can be effectively cleansed without compromise – a gentle, daily ritual for keeping unhappy skin happy, healthy, and clean.

How to Use: 

To use a foaming face wash, wet your face with lukewarm water and apply a small amount of the foam to your skin. Gently massage it in circular motions, then rinse thoroughly with water. Pat your face dry with a clean towel and follow up with a moisturiser to keep your skin hydrated.
