Morning and evening cleanser for healthier-looking skin
Many people with dry or sensitive skin avoid cleansing because they're worried it will make their skin feel even drier. In reality, choosing the right cleanser can actually help support a healthier skin barrier.
At Dr Ed Robinson Clinics, we recommend products that cleanse effectively while respecting the skin's natural balance. Obagi Nu-Derm® Gentle Cleanser removes the build-up of makeup, SPF and environmental pollutants without disrupting hydration, making it an excellent everyday cleanser for drier skin types or those using active skincare ingredients.
Oat Amino Acids
Naturally derived cleansing agents that gently lift away impurities while helping the skin retain moisture during cleansing.

Apricot Kernel Oil

Anyone looking for a gentle everyday cleanser
Apply a small amount to damp skin using your fingertips.
Massage gently over the face and neck using circular movements before rinsing thoroughly with lukewarm water. Use morning and evening as the first step in your skincare routine. Follow with your recommended treatment products, moisturiser and SPF during the day.
If your skin feels tight after cleansing, your cleanser may be too harsh for your skin type. A gentle cleanser should remove dirt, makeup and excess oil while leaving your skin comfortable and hydrated. This becomes even more important if you're using retinoids, exfoliating acids or professional skin treatments, as maintaining a healthy skin barrier helps maximise the benefits of your skincare routine.
