HYDRATING CLEANSER
Glass skin starts at the cleanse
Purity Glass Skin Facial Polish is the first step of your glass skin hydration ritual. This creamy exfoliating cleanser works in two ways: biodegradable jojoba and rosehip beads polish away dull surface cells to reveal smoother skin, while lime caviar AHAs gently resurface over time. Infused with plant hyaluronic acid, mānuka honey, kōwhai bark extract and botanical oils to balance and hydrate.

FAQS
What makes Purity different from a regular facial scrub?
Purity combines two forms of exfoliation in one cleanser. Biodegradable jojoba and rosehip beads provide an immediate polishing effect, while lime caviar AHAs gently resurface over time to help refine skin texture and reveal smoother-looking skin.
Is Purity suitable for sensitive skin?
Purity was formulated to provide gentle exfoliation while supporting skin comfort. In a two-week in-vivo trial of 94 participants, 96% experienced no irritation. However, everyone’s skin is different, so we recommend patch testing before use, particularly if your skin is sensitive or reactive.
How often should I use Purity?
Purity is gentle enough for regular use. We recommend introducing it gradually and adjusting frequency according to your skin's needs.
What is glass skin?
Glass skin refers to skin that appears smooth, hydrated and naturally light-reflective. Rather than relying on makeup for glow, the focus is on improving skin texture and hydration to create a healthy-looking complexion.
Does Purity leave skin feeling dry or tight?
No. Unlike many traditional exfoliators, Purity was designed to combine texture refinement with hydration. Plant hyaluronic acid, mānuka honey, kōwhai bark extract and nourishing botanical oils help leave skin feeling fresh, comfortable and hydrated.
What products should I use after Purity?
Purity is designed as the first step in your hydration ritual. Follow with your favourite toner, serum, eye cream and moisturiser. For a complete glass-skin-inspired routine, pair with Ananda Antioxidant-Rich Gentle Toner, Maya Hyaluronic 72-Hour Hydration Serum and Baptise H₂O Ultra-Hydrating Water Gel.
