Designed for daily morning and evening use, the creamy Castile formula removes dirt, makeup, and excess sebum while leaving skin feeling soft and hydrated.

How does this tea tree face wash cleanse without drying my skin?

The base is a gentle Castile-style soap that foams into a creamy lather, removing impurities while preserving the skin’s moisture barrier. Lightweight botanical hydrators help reduce the tight, stripped sensation common with harsher formulas.

• Castile-inspired cleanser for mild, effective cleansing
• Lavender, chamomile, and calendula to soothe and soften
• Leaves skin comfortable, not taut

What benefits does tea tree oil provide in this cleanser?

The product uses Eco-Harvest Australian tea tree oil to help clarify the complexion and manage excess oil. The tea tree scent is fresh and herbal, and it works alongside supportive botanicals rather than as a single-action solution.

• Sustainably sourced Australian tea tree oil for natural clarification
• Complimentary botanicals—goldenseal, bladderwrack, awapuhi—for balanced results
• Appropriate for oily, combination, and acne-prone skin types

How should I use the 32 fl oz bottle for best results?

For an effective routine, wet your face, pump 1–2 times, and massage gently in circular motions for about a minute before rinsing with warm water. Use daily—morning and night—or whenever you need a post-workout refresh.

• Wet skin, apply 1–2 pumps, massage for 60 seconds, rinse thoroughly
• Daily AM and PM use; good for post-exercise cleanses
• Pairs well with your toner, serum, moisturizer, and SPF

Is this product suitable for travel, sensitive skin, or long-term use?

• Certified vegan and cruelty-free; no parabens or phthalates
• Large 32 oz supply gives approximately 180+ washes
