Epicutis Cleansing Essentials Set

The Epicutis Cleansing Essentials Set is a two piece double cleanse ritual: the Epicutis Oil Cleanser 100ml and the Enzyme Exfoliating Powder 40g. The oil melts away waterproof makeup and SPF while protecting the barrier, and the powder gently polishes away dull, dead surface cells for a smooth, soft texture. Skin feels purified and breathable, never tight. The set is $140 CAD.

It is for anyone who wears makeup or sunscreen daily and wants a thorough but non stripping cleanse, and for skin that looks dull or rough and would benefit from gentle enzyme exfoliation. Epicutis describes the result as deeply purified and breathable, the perfect canvas for serums. If your skin is actively irritated or freshly post procedure, use the Oil Cleanser alone and hold the powder until skin has settled.

Epicutis does not include step by step directions with this set, so follow each carton. The general approach for a double cleanse is to massage the Oil Cleanser onto dry skin first to dissolve makeup and SPF, emulsify with water and rinse, then use the Enzyme Exfoliating Powder as the second, polishing step. Use the oil daily and the powder as often as your skin tolerates.

Epicutis does not give a usage count. The 100ml Oil Cleanser used nightly and the 40g powder used a few times a week typically last a season or more. Enzyme exfoliation gives an immediately smoother, softer feel after each use, with dullness improving over a few weeks of consistent cleansing.

Cleansing is the first step, so follow with your serums and moisturizer; Epicutis describes the clean canvas as ideal for serums. The Epicutis Lipid Serum and Hyvia Crème, found in the Luxury Skincare Set and Post-Procedure Set, are the brand's natural next steps. Finish mornings with sunscreen, which the Oil Cleanser will remove easily that evening.

Go gently. The powder already exfoliates with protease and lipase enzymes, so using it on the same night as a retinol, glycolic or other exfoliating acid increases the chance of irritation. Alternate nights, patch test the powder first, introduce it a couple of times a week and build up, and do not use it on broken or irritated skin. Always wear sunscreen by day.

The Oil Cleanser is a blend of sunflower, meadowfoam, macadamia, chia and rice bran seed oils with hinoki wood oil and tocopherol, built to melt makeup while protecting the barrier. The Enzyme Exfoliating Powder combines a gentle amino acid cleansing agent, silica, maltodextrin, Epicutis' signature DSD lipid technology and the enzymes protease and lipase to polish away dead surface cells.
