What makes the Gentle Face Wash different?
Clean, not stripped. A gentle, soap-free face wash built on coconut-derived cleansers, so it lifts away oil and impurities without that squeaky, stripped feeling. Glycerin and Aloe Vera help skin stay hydrated and comfortable while you cleanse, and Sunflower Seed Oil and Vitamin E help support the skin barrier.
Who it's for. Most skin types, as an everyday cleanser before any NKD Koala serum. It contains fragrance, so patch test first if your skin reacts to fragrance.
What to expect. Skin should feel clean and comfortable after rinsing, not tight. If it does feel tight, use a little less.

How do I use the Gentle Face Wash?
-
01
Wet your face
Use lukewarm water, not hot. Very hot water can leave skin feeling dry and tight.
30 seconds of cleansing is enough.
-
02
Lather and massage
Apply a small amount and massage in gentle circular motions for 30 seconds. Focus on the T-zone and chin.
Don't scrub. This wash does the work.
-
03
Rinse thoroughly
Rinse completely with lukewarm water and pat dry gently. Proceed with your serum immediately.
For HA Serum users: leave skin slightly damp.
Cleanse morning and evening. A clean base lets every serum do its job.
