ILIA The Cleanse Soft Foaming Cleanser 6.76 fl oz — pH-Balanced, Hydrating Foam for Sensitive Skin

ILIA The Cleanse is a pH-balanced soft foam cleanser that removes makeup, mineral SPF, and daily pollution while preserving skin hydration.

Designed for everyday use, this fragrance-free foaming cleanser lifts away makeup and excess oil without leaving skin tight or stripped. Its plant-based surfactants create a pillowy lather that dissolves buildup, while a sugar-derived Hydrating Complex helps replace moisture lost during cleansing. Clinically tested to support skin pH and suitable for sensitive eyes and contact lens wearers, The Cleanse aims to leave skin feeling soft, balanced, and refreshed.

How does The Cleanse remove makeup and SPF without irritating skin?

This formula uses gentle, plant-derived surfactants that emulsify makeup, mineral sunscreens, and surface debris without harsh stripping. Instead of aggressive detergents, it relies on milder cleansing agents and an emulsifier to lift impurities while protecting the skin barrier.

• Plant-based surfactants create a soft lather that dissolves oil and makeup.
• Barsolve emulsifier helps remove excess sebum and mineral SPF.
• Fragrance-free formulation reduces the risk of irritation for sensitive skin.
• Ophthalmologist-tested for gentle removal around the eye area.

Will it dry out my skin or disturb my skin’s pH?

No — The Cleanse is pH-balanced and formulated to minimize barrier disruption. Clinical testing shows it helps maintain natural pH levels and includes a hydrating sugar complex to restore moisture typically lost during rinsing.

• Pertinent clinical testing supports pH balance maintenance.
• Pentavitin sugar complex attracts and binds moisture to skin.
• Leaves skin feeling soft, not tight, after rinsing.
• Ideal for dry, combination, and normal skin seeking gentle hydration.

Is this safe for sensitive eyes and contact lens wearers?

Yes. The Cleanse is ophthalmologist-tested and formulated specifically to be gentle around the eye area. It removes makeup effectively while minimizing sting or irritation commonly caused by stronger cleansers.

• Ophthalmologist- and dermatologist-tested for safety.
• Fragrance-free to reduce eye and skin irritation potential.
• Suitable for use by contact lens wearers.
• Removes eye makeup without aggressive rubbing.

What key ingredients support skin hydration and balance?

The formula centers on a Hydrating Sugar Complex (Pentavitin) and plant-derived surfactants that clean gently while replenishing moisture. Barsolve, a mild emulsifier, helps clear buildup and maintain sebum balance so skin feels comfortable after cleansing.

• Pentavitin: plant-derived sugar complex that binds hydration to the skin.
• Plant-based surfactants: effective but non-drying lathering agents.
• Barsolve: gentle emulsifier that clears excess oil and residue.
• Free from fragrance, gluten, silicone, and talc for a cleaner ingredient profile.

It’s especially useful for people with sensitive skin or eyes, contact lens wearers, and those who prefer vegan, cruelty-free, and fragrance-free formulations. If you want a soft, foaming routine step that leaves skin feeling supple and refreshed rather than tight or dry, The Cleanse is formulated for that goal.
