Worth knowing

The finer details.

A closer look at your skin, your routine and what goes into the formula.

Biophora Bioactive Cleanser

Biophora’s pH-balanced gel cleanser with 1% glycolic acid, for normal, oily, combination or congestion-prone skin. Morning and evening.

The one we suggest when skin feels congested but still needs to stay comfortable: a gentle gel that cleans pores thoroughly while 1% glycolic acid quietly supports skin renewal. Green tea, vitamins C and E and fruit extracts add antioxidant care, so skin looks fresh, clean and balanced, never stripped. It is also the first step of the Biophora Blemish-Prone, Normal Skin and Men’s Skincare Kits.

Benefits

Congested skin is often over-cleansed, and it usually answers with more oil and more tightness. Bioactive Cleanser takes a gentler route: a pH-balanced gel that cleans pores thoroughly, with just 1% glycolic acid to keep renewal going every day without drying the skin.

We reach for it for normal, oily and combination skin, and it opens three of Biophora’s kits for good reason. If your skin is dry, sensitive or reactive, Calming Cleanser or Latte Blu will suit you better.

How to use

  1. Massage onto damp skin: Work over the face and neck for 45 seconds to 1 minute, then rinse well with lukewarm water.
  2. Tone: Sweep on your toner to refine and prepare the skin.
  3. Serum and moisturizer: Follow with your serum, then a moisturizer suited to your skin.
  4. Finish with SPF: In the morning, sunscreen is always the last step, especially with glycolic acid in your routine.
