A face wash that cleans without stripping - and actually brings something extra to the table. The Ernest Supplies Soap-Free Gel Face Wash is a nature-inspired cleansing gel formulated to dissolve pore-clogging buildup and remove environmental impurities without over-drying or disrupting the skin's natural moisture balance. Gentle, plant-derived surfactants (Cocamidopropyl Betaine, Lauryl Glucoside, Coco-Glucoside, Sucrose Cocoate) do the cleansing work without harsh sulphates or soap, while a mild natural AHA complex - Bilberry, Sugarcane, Orange, Lemon, and Sugar Maple Extracts - provides light resurfacing that keeps pores clear over time. Magnesium Ascorbyl Phosphate (a stable form of Vitamin C) brightens, Panthenol (Vitamin B5) and Sodium Hyaluronate maintain hydration throughout the cleanse, and Chamomile and Honeysuckle calm and soothe the skin. pH-balanced specifically for the face, so it works with the skin's natural acid mantle rather than against it.
Packaged in Ernest Supplies' signature eco-friendly Tech Pack™ pouch - TSA carry-on compliant, gym bag-ready, and lower in packaging waste than a standard bottle. Vegan and cruelty-free. For all skin types, skin tones, and genders.
Who's It For
Anyone who wants a daily face wash that cleanses thoroughly without leaving skin feeling tight or stripped - particularly those with oily, combination, or sensitive skin who've found soap-based cleansers too harsh for everyday use. Also effective as a makeup remover at the end of the day, or as an all-over cleanser in a pinch.
Key Benefits
-
Cleanses thoroughly without over-drying. Soap-free and sulphate-free, the plant-derived surfactant blend lifts dirt, oil, and environmental impurities without disrupting the skin's natural moisture barrier - no tight post-wash feeling.
-
pH-balanced specifically for the face. Formulated to maintain the skin's natural acid mantle, preserving its ability to protect itself and respond well to the rest of your routine.
-
Natural AHA fruit complex for clearer pores over time. Bilberry (Vaccinium Myrtillus), Sugarcane (Saccharum Officinarum), Orange, Lemon, and Sugar Maple Extracts provide a mild alpha hydroxy acid effect that gently resurfaces and helps keep pores clear with regular use.
-
Supercharged with stable Vitamin C. Magnesium Ascorbyl Phosphate is a water-stable form of Vitamin C that brightens the skin and supports antioxidant protection throughout the cleansing process.
-
Hydrates as it cleanses. Sodium Hyaluronate and Panthenol (Vitamin B5) maintain moisture levels throughout the wash, so skin feels balanced and comfortable - not depleted - after rinsing.
-
Doubles as a makeup remover and all-over cleanser. Effective enough to remove makeup at the end of the day, and pH-balanced enough to use all over in a pinch - the Tech Pack™ format makes it genuinely versatile on the road.
Scent Profile
Clean, fresh, and lightly botanical - a natural blend of Grapefruit Peel Oil, Lavender Oil, Eucalyptus Globulus, and Rosemary Leaf Oil that smells purposeful rather than perfumed. It's a rinse-off formula so the scent is present during the wash and fades completely on rinsing - a moment of freshness, not a fragrance commitment.
Key Ingredients
-
Plant-Derived Surfactant Blend (Cocamidopropyl Betaine, Lauryl Glucoside, Coco-Glucoside, Sucrose Cocoate) - A soap-free, sulphate-free cleansing system derived from coconut and sugar that lifts impurities gently and effectively without stripping the skin's natural lipid barrier.
-
Natural AHA Fruit Complex (Vaccinium Myrtillus, Saccharum Officinarum, Citrus Aurantium Dulcis, Citrus Limon, Acer Saccharum) - Bilberry, Sugarcane, Orange, Lemon, and Sugar Maple Extracts deliver a mild, naturally derived alpha hydroxy acid effect that helps resurface the skin and keep pores clear with regular use.
- Magnesium Ascorbyl Phosphate (Stable Vitamin C) - A water-stable, non-irritating form of Vitamin C that brightens the complexion and delivers antioxidant protection during the cleansing step.
-
Sodium Hyaluronate + Panthenol (Vitamin B5) - A hydrating duo that binds water to the skin and conditions throughout the cleanse, counteracting any dryness and leaving skin feeling comfortable and balanced post-rinse.
-
Chamomile Extract (Chamomilla Recutita) - A well-established calming botanical that soothes irritation and helps maintain skin comfort, particularly beneficial for sensitive or reactive skin types.
-
Montmorillonite - A mineral clay that helps absorb excess oil and surface debris during cleansing, contributing to a thorough clean without abrasion.
How To Use
Use daily, morning and evening. Mix a small amount with water and massage gently over damp skin. Rinse clean. No lathering required - the gel formula works with minimal water. Use before any serums, moisturizers, or sunscreen as step one of your routine. To remove makeup, apply to dry skin first, work in gently, then rinse.
Why MASC Recommends This
The Soap-Free Gel Face Wash is the kind of cleanser that gets the job done without making a fuss about it - and the AHA fruit complex and stable Vitamin C are genuinely thoughtful additions to a category where most formulas stop at basic cleansing. The pH-balanced, soap-free formula makes it appropriate for daily double cleansing without cumulative dryness, and the Tech Pack™ format is a practical and more sustainable alternative to the standard plastic bottle. A clean, capable daily cleanser that suits just about everyone.
