Why we stand behind it

This non-stripping cleanser takes it all off while building the skin's barrier back up. Designed to help naturally soothe inflammation, it also works to replenish the skin with essential minerals and electrolytes normally stripped during cleansing. Gentle enough for daily AM/PM use, this soap-free, fragrance-free, pH-balanced gel is clinically-tested, derm-approved, and won't itch, sting, or burn.

Based on a third-party test with 30 subjects including those with sensitive skin:

94% agree that it did not burn their eyes

Key ingredients

Minerals + Electrolytes (Zinc, Copper, Magnesium): Help build skin's immunity + boost hydration levels.

100% Pure Aloe Vera: Helps form a protective barrier to retain moisture + promote healing.

Oat Extract: Helps naturally soothe inflammation + irritation.

What is an undertone?

An undertone is the color beneath the surface of your skin, which never changes (even with a tan). There are three types of undertones:

Pink/Cool

I see red or pink undertones around the perimeter of my face and neck.
My skin burns easily, but barely tans.
My skin looks better in silver jewelry than gold.

Neutral

I see both pink and yellow undertones around the perimeter of my face and neck.
My skin sometimes burns and sometimes tans.
My skin looks good in both gold and silver jewelry.

Yellow/Warm

I see yellow or golden undertones around the perimeter of my face and neck.
My skin rarely burns, but tans easily.
My skin looks better in gold jewelry than silver.

Reviews

The best

"This is a wonderful cleanser. It’s gentle and effective without stripping my skin. The bottle lasts a longtime."

Isabelle (5/5)

SOS Daily Balancing Gel Cleanser

"Gentle on my skin yet strong enough to remove makeup and SPF."

Claudia C. (5/5)

Love it!

"I have roseacea and this cleaner is so gentle yet very effective at cleaning my face."

Lauren C. (5/5)

Big fan

"I’m a big fan of the SOS products. It’s a gentle cleanser that helps keep my face fresh. I like how it doesn’t foam up a huge amount and is easy to rinse off."

michaela m. (5/5)

Terrible bottle

"I like the face wash well enough and I appreciate that it can tackle SPF, BUT the bottle is so terrible! The pump doesn’t bounce back, so I have to manually pull the pump up if I need more face wash. It’s so frustrating! For that reason alone, I won’t purchase it again."

Stefani B. (3/5)

Great for reactive skin

"This gel cleanser is probably more for younger shin, but I find it great for reactive skin."

Mary L. (5/5)

Favorite cleanser!

"I am so glad I found this stuff! It's fantastic for my acne prone, oil skin. It's a holy grail product, no doubt."

Katie S. (5/5)

Love that it feels like it actually cleans everything off

"I got this for a nightly double cleanse and I really like it. I have acne prone and semi sensitive skin and it did feel like it dried my skin out the first time I used it but I love that it washes everything off from the day."

Adria J. (5/5)

The BEST face wash!

"THE BEST! Removes all my makeup and SPF like no other product. I have really sensitive skin and this has never irritated my skin. Also it smells divine not overpowering. My daughter tried it and now also uses it and she loves it too!"

Jackie (5/5)
