Product Information
Full details
The BCL Cleansing Research Gel (145g) is a versatile 3-in-1 skincare solution for individuals seeking an efficient way to cleanse, remove makeup, and exfoliate. Its primary benefit is simplifying your routine by combining multiple steps into one, leaving skin refreshed and radiant. A potential consideration is that like any exfoliating product, it may not be suitable for extremely sensitive skin without patch testing. Key features include deep pore makeup absorption, gentle exfoliation with fruit acids, and skin brightening through its blend of vitamins and citrus extracts.

FAQs
How often should I use the BCL Cleansing Research Gel?
For most skin types, daily use is recommended. However, if you have sensitive skin, start with 2-3 times per week and gradually increase frequency as tolerated.
Can this product be used to remove eye makeup?
Yes, it can remove eye makeup. However, be gentle around the eye area and avoid direct contact with the eyes. For waterproof or heavy eye makeup, a separate eye makeup remover might be more effective.
What are the main exfoliating ingredients?
The product contains fruit acids such as malic acid and lactic acid for exfoliation.
Will this product dry out my skin?
While it contains exfoliating agents, it also includes moisturizing ingredients. However, if you experience dryness, reduce the frequency of use and ensure you are using a moisturizer afterward.
What is the purpose of kaolin in the formula?
Kaolin is a type of clay that helps to absorb dirt, excess oil, and impurities from the pores.
Is this product suitable for acne-prone skin?
The exfoliating and pore-cleansing properties can be beneficial for acne-prone skin by helping to keep pores clear. However, always monitor your skin's reaction.
What is the benefit of the citrus extracts?
Citrus extracts, along with Vitamin C and niacinamide, contribute to brightening the skin, improving radiance, and providing antioxidant benefits.
Troubleshooting
Product does not lather well.
This is a low-foaming gel cleanser designed for effective cleansing without excessive suds. Gently massage into damp skin to activate its cleaning properties.
Skin feels slightly sensitive after use.
This can occur due to the exfoliating fruit acids. Reduce frequency of use to every other day or a few times a week. Ensure you are not using other strong exfoliants concurrently. If irritation persists, discontinue use.
Makeup not fully removed.
For heavy or waterproof makeup, it is recommended to use a dedicated makeup remover first, or to apply a slightly larger amount of the gel and ensure thorough massaging, especially around eye areas. Rinse thoroughly.
