What does it do for you?

Our most-loved Seaweed Oil-Control Face Wash will leave your skin feeling squeaky clean without leaving skin feeling tight or dry.

Formulated for oily and combination skin, cleanse away daily grime and excess oil with this gentle gel-to-foam wash. It glides over skin, leaving it looking shine-free and feeling clean, balanced and refreshed - like a breath of fresh sea air.

Now enriched with 93% natural-origin ingredients, our oil-control face wash is powered by a new seaweed active: royal sugar kelp from Brittany, France. Our sustainably sourced* royal sugar kelp helps to balance oiliness and dryness by regulating sebum levels. The result? A happy, healthy-looking and cleansed complexion. But it's not all changed around here, we're sticking with the signature fragrance you know and love.

Our packaging has had an update too. This face wash now comes in a 100% recyclable* tube too.

* We've always been fans of seaweed and its skin-loving benefits. But it's not just good for your fabulous face. Did you know, our seaweed active, royal sugar kelp is sustainably sourced from Brittany, France, using wild-harvesting and low extraction methods? In other words, it's a renewable resource that's also beneficial to our precious ocean ecosystems.
