Ingredients and Benefits
Sodium Hyaluronate (Hyaluronic Acid)
A deeply penetrating form of Hyaluronic Acid that draws moisture into the skin during and after cleansing, ensuring the face feels hydrated and comfortable rather than tight or stripped after washing.
Mandelic Acid
An ingredient derived from bitter almonds. With a larger molecular size, it penetrates slowly and gently - making it one of the safest AHAs for sensitive and acne-prone skin during pregnancy. It exfoliates dead skin cells, unclogs pores, and improves tone.
Bisabolol
Naturally derived from chamomile. One of the most effective anti-irritant ingredients available, it soothes any redness and calms post-cleanse sensitivity — leaving skin settled and comfortable immediately after washing.
Glycyrrhiza Glabra (Licorice) Root Extract
Contains Glabridin, a compound that inhibits the enzyme responsible for post-inflammatory pigmentation. Particularly effective for hormonal dark spots and uneven tone.
Avena Sativa (Oat) Kernel Extract
An FDA-recognised skin protectant with anti-inflammatory properties. In a face wash it forms a brief but effective protective film during cleansing, shields against irritants, relieves sensitivity and inflammation, and helps maintain the skin's natural pH balance — an important quality in a daily-use formula.
Nelumbo Nucifera (Lotus) Flower Extract
Refines the appearance of pores and adds a natural radiance to skin.
Pyrus Malus (Apple) Fruit Extract
Rich in natural antioxidants and gentle brightening compounds. Supports skin renewal and helps even out skin tone with consistent daily use.
Camellia Sinensis (Green Tea) Leaf Extract
A potent antioxidant that protects skin from the environmental damage accumulated throughout the day. Also helps regulate sebum production — beneficial for the hormonal oiliness that pregnancy and postpartum skin can bring.
Aloe Barbadensis (Aloe Vera) Extract
One of the most studied skin soothers in skincare. Calms redness, reduces irritation, and delivers lightweight hydration during cleansing — making every wash a moment of comfort rather than just cleansing, particularly for sensitive and reactive skin..
Cucumis Sativus (Cucumber) Fruit Extract
Naturally rich in water content and antioxidants. In a face wash it counteracts the heat and tightness that cleansing can sometimes cause, leaving skin refreshed and soothed rather than stripped and uncomfortable after washing.
Panthenol (Pro-Vitamin B5)
A converted form of Vitamin B5 that penetrates the skin quickly and attracts moisture. Supports skin repair after cleansing, improves softness, and helps the skin's natural barrier recover quickly — so that daily washing strengthens rather than depletes the skin over time.
Allantoin
A naturally occurring compound that soothes irritation and promotes skin cell renewal. In a daily face wash it softens skin texture, calms any sensitivity triggered by cleansing, and supports the ongoing health of skin that is washed twice a day every day.
Plantapon SF (Sodium Cocoamphoacetate, Lauryl Glucoside, Sodium Cocoyl Glutamate, Sodium Lauryl Glucose Carboxylate)
A coconut-derived, sulfate-free surfactant system. It cleanses effectively without disrupting the skin's natural acid mantle or stripping its moisture barrier - the foundation of a safe, pH-balanced cleanse.
Purified Water (Aqua)
Water purified to ensure the cleanest possible base for every ingredient in the formula.
Apply a small amount to wet face. Massage gently in circular motions and rinse thoroughly. Use morning and night. Always follow with the Mother Moisturiser, and sunscreen in the morning.

Traditional soap has a naturally high pH that disrupts the skin's acid mantle — stripping moisture, weakening the barrier, and leaving skin tight, dry, and vulnerable with every wash. Our face wash contains no traditional soap. Instead it uses a coconut-derived, amino acid-based cleansing system that has been specifically designed to match the skin's natural pH. It lifts impurities, removes excess oil, and cleanses thoroughly — but because it works at the skin's own pH rather than against it, the barrier stays intact after every wash. Skin feels clean and comfortable rather than tight and compromised.
Mandelic Acid is generally considered one of the safest AHAs for use during pregnancy due to its larger molecular size and gentler action.
It can be used morning and night as part of your regular routine. Mandelic Acid is one of the gentlest AHAs available and is well-tolerated by most skin types from the first use. If you are completely new to AHAs, starting with once daily use at night for the first week is a simple way to let your skin settle into a new routine, but there is no need to be cautious beyond that. Most people have no issues using it twice daily from the outset.
A feeling of tightness after cleansing usually indicates the skin needs more moisture, not that the product is too strong. Follow immediately with the Mother Moisturiser. If tightness persists, you may be using too much product — a small amount is sufficient for a full cleanse.
Yes. Mandelic Acid is specifically chosen for this formula because of its exceptional gentleness — its larger molecular size means it absorbs slowly and works gradually, making it one of the most appropriate AHAs for sensitive, reactive, and pregnancy-affected skin. If your skin is particularly reactive, beginning with once daily use gives it time to adjust, but most people with sensitive skin find Mandelic Acid significantly more comfortable than other exfoliating acids. Always follow with the Mother Moisturiser for best results.
Yes. Mandelic Acid is particularly well-suited for teenage acne because it exfoliates, unclogs pores, and has mild antibacterial properties — without the harshness of stronger acids like Glycolic or Salicylic Acid.
Yes, always. Daily SPF use is essential when incorporating any exfoliating ingredient into your routine — we recommend pairing with the Mother Sunscreen.
