What is Dr. Grandel Gentle Cleansing Balm?
Dr. Grandel Gentle Cleansing Balm belongs to the brand’s Cleansing series. Dr. Grandel formulated it for the sensitive skin that can’t tolerate the brand’s stronger foaming washes.
Its light, balm-like consistency cleanses the face while lifting away eye and lip make-up. It does this without leaving a residue or the drying, tight sensation that sensitive skin often reacts to.
Dr. Grandel built the formula around Jojoba Oil for its nourishing, lipid-replenishing character. As a result, it leaves the skin soft and clear rather than stripped.
Key benefits
- Gentle enough for sensitive skin: formulated specifically for skin that reacts easily to cleansing.
- Removes make-up in one step: lifts face, eye and lip make-up, so there is no need for a separate remover.
- No residue, no drying: the balm rinses clean, and Dr. Grandel formulated it not to dry out the skin.
- Nourishing as it cleanses: Jojoba Oil helps replenish the skin’s natural lipids during the wash.
Key ingredients
Simmondsia Chinensis (Jojoba) Seed Oil is a stable, well-tolerated plant lipid. Dr. Grandel highlights it for protecting the skin and leaving it feeling pleasant and well nourished. In addition, Prunus Amygdalus Dulcis (Sweet Almond) Oil is valued for its intensively smoothing, strengthening and moisturizing character.
Panthenol (pro-vitamin B5) supports the skin’s moisture level. It also has a soothing, regenerating reputation that fits a sensitive-skin formula. Finally, Glycerin and Potassium Palmitoyl Hydrolyzed Wheat Protein round out the balm’s conditioning base.
How to use Dr. Grandel Gentle Cleansing Balm
- Apply to dry face, neck and décolleté.
- Then massage in gently with moist hands.
- After that, rinse off thoroughly with lukewarm water.
- To remove eye make-up, apply the undiluted balm to a dry cotton pad. Then gently wipe the eye area.
For external use only; discontinue use if irritation occurs.
