FACETORY Urban Calm Gel Facial Cleanser 4 oz

Overview

Facetory's Urban Calm is a gel facial cleanser built around fermented pear and LHA, sold in a 4 fluid ounce bottle. It is positioned for sensitive skin and doubles as a daily makeup remover, with a plant based, gluten free formula.

LHA, a gentler cousin of salicylic acid, exfoliates more slowly, which is likely why Facetory pairs it with fermented pear rather than leaning on stronger acids alone. The listing covers oily, dry and combination skin under one gel formula, a wide claim that a gel base can support since gels tend to rinse clean without heavy residue. It is built to double as a makeup remover, so it is meant to replace a separate cleansing step rather than sit alongside one.

• Formulated with salicylic acid as a listed special ingredient
• Plant based and gluten free
• 4 fluid ounce bottle, doubles as a makeup remover

Who it's for

Good fit for someone who wants one gel cleanser to handle both makeup removal and daily face washing, especially if they lean toward gentler exfoliating acids over harsher ones. Facetory markets it across oily, dry, combination and sensitive skin, so buyers with a strictly single skin concern may find more targeted formulas elsewhere.

Pros and cons

Performance notes

LHA exfoliates the skin's surface more gradually than salicylic or glycolic acid because its larger molecule size slows penetration, which generally makes it better tolerated on sensitive skin while still clearing away buildup. The gel format is designed to lather lightly and rinse without leaving residue, which supports its dual use as a makeup remover. Results depend on consistent daily use rather than one wash.
