Product Description

WHAT IS IT?

Like a cool, refreshing tide sweeping across your skin, this lightweight, organic moisturiser has been carefully formulated for those with oily or blemish-prone complexions.

WHAT DOES IT DO?

Using 100% naturally derived ingredients, the rebalancing formula works to protect and nourish your skin’s microbiome.

While prebiotics stabilise sebum levels and defend against blemish-causing bacteria, blue spirulina refines pore appearance and blueberry seed extract brightens.

With a cream-gel texture that’s instantly absorbing, cooling and soothing, it’s ideal for anyone who struggles with spots.

And, with no silicones in sight, it provides a shine-free finish that sits perfectly under makeup.

Better still, Fresh Waves is available as part of our money-saving Essential Collection. Buy today and save £22.

How To Use

After cleansing and toning, massage 2-4 pumps of the moisturiser into your face and neck using upward, circular motions.

Ingredients

Probiotics

Helping to keep your skin’s microbiome happy and healthy, prebiotics work to keep sebum levels in check and ward off blemish-causing bacteria.

Sea Kelp Extract

Packed with iodine, minerals, and antioxidants, sea kelp extract helps to regulate sebum levels, reduce inflammation, and protect against environmental stressors.

Hyaluronic Acid

Did we mention how amazing this is for skin? High molecular weights act as bodyguards to protect the top layers of skin from moisture loss, while the medium and low molecular weights can get busy keeping the cells below the surface topped up without any disturbances from the outside environment.

Why Jojoba Oil Is Your Skin's Best Friend

At the heart of our Smoothing Cleanser is jojoba oil: a golden, skin-loving liquid that closely mimics your skin's own natural oils. That means it deeply cleansers without disrupting your delicate moisture barrier. Rich in vitamins E and B-complex, jojoba oil gently melts away makeup, sunscreen, and daily build-up, while keeping your skin nourished and balanced. It's non-comedogenic (so it won't clog pores), making it ideal for all skin types, from dry and sensitive to oily and blemish-prone. We chose jojoba for its versatility and skin compatibility, but you'll stay for the silky-soft glow it leaves behind.
