Three Ships Refresh Papaya + Salicylic Acid Cleanser 3.4 fl oz — foaming acne‑control, oil‑balancing cleanser

Three Ships Refresh Papaya + Salicylic Acid Cleanser is a foaming facial wash that lifts makeup and excess oil while helping unclog pores for visibly clearer-looking skin.

This gentle yet effective cleanser blends natural papaya extract with salicylic acid to target oiliness and congested pores without stripping. Designed for oily and acne-prone skin, the formula foams easily, rinses clean, and prepares your skin for follow-up treatments like toner, serum, and moisturizer. It’s free of parabens and sulfates, vegan and cruelty-free, and formulated to be part of a straightforward daily routine.

How does this cleanser remove makeup and excess oil?

The Refresh Cleanser uses a foaming base to lift surface impurities and dissolve lightweight makeup while salicylic acid penetrates pores to loosen trapped oil and debris. Papaya extract contributes gentle toning and helps keep skin feeling balanced after cleansing.

• Foaming texture breaks down light makeup and surface sebum.
• Salicylic acid (beta hydroxy acid) helps clear pore blockages.
• Papaya extract supports a smoother, toned skin feel.
• Rinses clean without heavy residue.

Is this suitable for sensitive or acne-prone skin?

The formula is aimed at oily and acne-prone complexions, with salicylic acid to help reduce the appearance of breakouts and papaya to tone. If your skin is very sensitive or reactive, patch testing is recommended and use can be limited to once daily until tolerance builds.

• Formulated for oily, blemish-prone skin types.
• Use once daily in morning or evening; adjust frequency if irritation occurs.
• Patch test behind the ear or inner wrist before full-face use.
• Follow with hydrating, non-comedogenic moisturizer.

How do I use the cleanser for best results?

Apply 1–2 pumps to a wet face, massage in gentle circular motions, then rinse thoroughly and pat dry. For a complete routine, follow with toner, targeted serum, and a moisturizer suited to oily or combination skin.

• Wet face, dispense 1–2 pumps, lather and massage for 30–60 seconds.
• Rinse fully with lukewarm water and pat dry—avoid harsh rubbing.
• Use once daily; increase to twice if tolerated and needed.
• Layer with lightweight hydrators and sunscreen in the morning.
