Dr. Loretta Gentle Hydrating Cleanser for Sensitive Skin, 6.76 fl oz — Sulfate-Free, Hydrating Gel

Dr. Loretta Women's Gentle Hydrating Cleanser is a sulfate-free gel cleanser that removes makeup and pollution while delivering lasting hydration without stripping the skin.

This silky, richly textured gel was developed to cleanse effectively yet gently: it dissolves makeup and surface impurities while supporting the skin’s moisture barrier with marine peptides and soothing botanicals. The formula is free from sulfates, parabens, phthalates, artificial dyes and fragrances, and is Leaping Bunny certified vegan and cruelty-free. It’s been recognized by beauty editors and designed for sensitive, rosacea-prone, and post-procedure skin.

How does this cleanser remove makeup while still hydrating?

The gel uses a mild, non-stripping surfactant system combined with hydrating ingredients like hydrolyzed algin and marine peptides to lift oil-based and water-based makeup without drying the skin. Gentle botanical extracts calm irritation so the skin feels smooth after rinsing.

• Mild surfactants that dissolve makeup without harsh SLS/SLES
• Hydrolyzed Algin and marine peptides replenish moisture
• Chamomile and ginger root oils soothe redness and sensitivity
• Safe for contact with the eye area when used gently

Is this suitable for sensitive or post-procedure skin?

Yes — the formulation avoids common irritants like fragrance, alcohol, and harsh sulfates, making it appropriate for inflamed or sensitized skin when used as directed. Its calming botanicals and barrier-supporting actives aim to minimize drying and irritation.

• Fragrance- and dye-free to reduce irritation risk
• Chamomile extract to soothe redness
• Developed for rosacea-prone and post-treatment skin tolerance
• Patch-test recommended after professional procedures

How should I use the cleanser for best results?

Apply to wet skin, massage gently, and you can leave the gel on up to three minutes to allow hydrating ingredients to absorb before rinsing. It works for both morning and evening routines and removes the day’s pollutants along with makeup.

• Wet face, then massage cleanser in circular motions
• Leave on for up to 3 minutes for extra hydration benefit
• Rinse thoroughly and follow with your serum and moisturizer
• Use twice daily or as directed by a skincare professional

What are the key ingredients and why are they included?

The formula centers on hydrolyzed algin and marine peptides to attract and retain moisture, while chamomile and ginger root essential oils provide calming support. This combination targets hydration and soothing without relying on heavy oils or synthetic fragrances.

• Hydrolyzed Algin: improves skin hydration and surface feel
• Marine Peptides: help support a supple, smooth complexion
