afa® Clarifying Gel Cleanser

afa Clarifying Gel Cleanser is a foaming gel wash that exfoliates, removes impurities and minimizes breakouts using 2% glycolic acid and 3% afaLUXE. It deeply cleanses without irritating or overdrying, helps reduce visible redness linked to breakouts, refines pores, helps reduce the look of blackheads and supports the skin's barrier and moisture balance. It comes in an 8.5 oz / 250 ml bottle.

Yes, afa lists it for combination, normal and oily skin, and it is tagged for blemish-prone skin, blackheads, clogged pores and large pores. Its skin friendly acids clarify without stripping. If your skin is dry or very sensitive, the afa Gentle Cream Cleanser is the better match, and anyone with broken or irritated skin should wait until it settles before using an acid cleanser.

Splash your face with warm water, massage a dime-sized amount over your wet face, neck and décolletage, rinse thoroughly and pat dry. Follow with your afa care products, hydration and sunscreen. It can be used morning and evening, though if you are also using a Restorative Gel at night you may prefer to start with once daily and build up as your skin tolerates it.

The 8.5 oz / 250 ml bottle typically lasts several months at a dime-sized amount per wash, although afa does not give an exact count. Skin usually feels fresher and clearer immediately after rinsing. Give it a few weeks of consistent use to judge changes in pores, blackheads and breakouts, since those benefits come from ongoing gentle exfoliation.

It works as the first step before an afa Restorative Gel, with Gel Mild or Breakouts Care as the recommended starting points for new users. Follow with the Mattifying Antioxidant Moisturizer, which is non-comedogenic and made for combination, normal and oily skin. The afa Toner Mist can refresh between steps. In the morning, always finish with a broad spectrum sunscreen.

Yes, with care. Because this cleanser contains glycolic acid and afaLUXE, pairing it with a Restorative Gel, retinol or another acid in the same routine adds up. Introduce one active at a time, watch for dryness or stinging, and consider using the cleanser once daily until your skin adjusts. Patch test if you are reactive and wear sunscreen every morning.

The Clarifying Gel Cleanser is a gel formula with 2% glycolic acid and 3% afaLUXE aimed at combination, normal and oily skin, breakouts, blackheads and large pores. The Cleansing Cream is a creamier wash for combination, dry and normal skin that focuses on removing makeup while brightening with vitamin C and nourishing with Dead Sea minerals. Choose the gel for clarifying, the cream for comfort.
