Overview
An unscented gel cleanser from Eminence built around charcoal and antioxidants, including vitamin E, sold in a 5 oz tube for all skin types. It's positioned as an exfoliating facial cleanser rather than a plain wash.
The charcoal and antioxidant combination targets surface exfoliation during cleansing rather than leaving an active treatment on skin, a gentler approach than a leave-on acid exfoliant. Material features list it as organic, though the spec data doesn't break down which specific ingredients carry that certification.
- Charcoal and antioxidant gel cleanser
- Unscented formula for all skin types
- Vitamin E active ingredient
- 5 oz / 150 ml tube
Who it's for
Works for anyone wanting a daily or near-daily gel cleanser that exfoliates lightly while cleansing, across all skin types per the listing. Not the product to reach for if looking for a deep chemical peel level exfoliant, since this is a rinse-off cleanser rather than a treatment left on skin.
Strengths and trade-offs
Drawn from this product's published specifications.
- Exfoliates and cleanses in one step
- Unscented, suited to all skin types
- Contains vitamin E and antioxidants
- 5 oz tube size
- Rinse-off format, not a leave-on treatment
- No stated frequency guidance in the spec data
Performance notes
Charcoal is included for its drawing properties during cleansing, paired with vitamin E and other antioxidants to offset the drying effect exfoliating cleansers can have, while the gel format rinses cleanly rather than leaving residue.
