Dermatological balancing face wash gel, 220 ml - Idee Derm

What This Cleanser Does

The IDEE DERM Dermatological Balancing Facial Cleansing Gel is a face wash designed for people who want a calm, thorough cleanse without the tight, squeaky feeling that harsher products often leave behind. The 220 ml bottle suits someone who washes their face morning and evening and prefers a gel texture over foam or milk.

A balancing gel lifts away the mix of sebum, sweat, sunscreen residue and airborne particles that settle on the skin during the day, while keeping the natural lipid layer reasonably intact. The gel format glides easily over damp skin, turns into a light lather under the fingertips and rinses off cleanly with lukewarm water, leaving no greasy film.

Formulated for Sensitive and Reactive Skin

The word dermatological in the name signals that the formula is aimed at sensitive and reactive skin types. This typically means:

• Mild surfactant base — avoids overly aggressive detergents such as classic SLS;
• Skin-friendly pH — close to that of the acid mantle (around 5.5);
• Suitable for combination skin — including skin that is oily in the T-zone but dehydrated on the cheeks.

When to Use It

• As the first step of a morning regimen, before serum and moisturiser;
• In the evening, as a second cleanse after removing makeup or SPF with an oil or micellar water;
• After sport or a long day in the city, when the skin simply feels dusty and warm.

How to Use

1. Apply a small amount to wet skin.
2. Massage gently for 20–30 seconds, avoiding the eye area.
3. Rinse thoroughly with lukewarm water.
4. Follow with a toner and a moisturiser suited to your skin type.

Important Notes

Even gentle cleansers can feel like too much if used more than twice a day or combined with strong exfoliating acids and retinoids on the same evening. If your skin shows persistent redness, peeling or a rash, pause the product and consult a dermatologist or pharmacist before continuing.
