What we found
Based on how this product compares to others in the cleansers category, cross-referenced against retailer listings and market data.
Strengths
- + Every centella dose is disclosed — nothing hides behind a proprietary name
- + Brand-commissioned non-comedogenic and low-irritation tests are completed
- + Fine centella powder format is genuinely different from other balms
- + No artificial colouring
Worth knowing
- - The doses are low: centella leaf extract 0.3%, the seven-part complex 0.1% in total, madecassoside just 1.5 ppm — read them before expecting centella results
- - Added fragrance sits mid-list (position 8) in a balm sold for sensitive, acne-prone skin
- - One detailed review reports poor emulsification, an oily film and gritty particles
- - Expensive per millilitre and hard to find at US retailers
