Kiehl's Ultra Facial Cleanser gentle foaming face wash — Fragrance-Free, hydrating with squalane & avocado oil

Kiehl's Ultra Facial Cleanser is a gentle, pH-balanced foaming face wash formulated with squalane, avocado oil, and glycerin to cleanse without stripping moisture.

This lightweight, fragrance-free formula removes makeup, oil and daily grime while supporting the skin’s natural balance. Dermatologist-tested and suitable for sensitive to oily complexions, the cleanser produces a soft foam that rinses clean and leaves skin feeling smooth, not tight. It’s designed for everyday use as the first step in your routine, pairing easily with serums and moisturizers.

How does this cleanser work on different skin types?

The Ultra Facial Cleanser uses humectants and emollients—glycerin, squalane and avocado oil—to lift dirt and oil while preserving hydration. Its pH-balanced base helps protect the skin barrier so it won’t over-dry sensitive or dry skin, yet it still clears excess oil for combination or oily skin.

• Hydrating agents replenish moisture as you cleanse
• Foaming action removes makeup and sebum without harsh stripping
• Dermatologist-tested for tolerance on sensitive skin

Will it remove makeup and sunscreen effectively?

Yes — the formula lifts makeup and surface sunscreen when massaged into damp skin, making it an effective first-step cleanser. For heavy or waterproof makeup you may prefer a prior oil or balm-based remover, then follow with Ultra Facial Cleanser to finish the cleanse.

• Foam clears residue and light to medium makeup
• Rinses clean without leaving a film
• Works well as part of a two-step cleansing routine if needed

Is it safe for daily use and sensitive skin?

The fragrance-free, paraben- and dye-free formula is developed to be gentle for everyday use. Because it is pH-balanced and dermatologist-tested, it’s appropriate for frequent morning and evening cleansing while minimizing irritation risk for reactive or dry skin.

• No added fragrance, parabens, mineral oil, or dyes
• Suitable for morning and night routines
• Recyclable packaging aligns with mindful product choices

How should I use it within my skincare routine?

Use the cleanser as the first step: wet the face, massage a small amount in upward circular motions, avoid the immediate eye area, then rinse thoroughly. Follow with your preferred Kiehl’s serums and moisturizers to lock in hydration and target specific concerns.

• Apply to damp skin and massage gently for 30–60 seconds
• Rinse with lukewarm water and pat dry—don’t rub
• Layer treatment serums and moisturizer afterward for best results

Who is this for: Kiehl's Ultra Facial Cleanser is built for anyone seeking a dependable, low-irritation daily cleanser—people with sensitive, dry, combination, or oily skin who want effective cleansing without sacrificing moisture. It’s a practical choice for those who prefer fragrance-free, dermatologist-tested formulas and a gentle daily routine that pairs well with other Kiehl’s products.
