REASONS TO LOVE THE OIL-TO-GEL CLEANSER

FOR ALL SKIN TYPES

The Oil-to-Gel Cleanser is formulated with squalane, aloe, and jojoba and safflower oils, to moisturize and soften. It has non-comedogenic, antimicrobial, and anti-inflammatory ingredients, so it works for all skin types, including sensitive and acne-prone skin.

A HYDRATION BOOST

The Oil-to-Gel Cleanser helps give skin its daily dose of hydration. Aloe vera helps hydrate the skin, and squalane and glycerin help strengthen and maintain a healthy skin barrier and prevent transepidermal moisture and water loss.

A MAKEUP REMOVING MARVEL

Foundation: wiped away in a pinch. Mascara: no problem. Lipstick: didn't stand a chance. The Oil-to-Gel Cleanser works wonders for removing makeup gently and easily.

FAQS

Is the Oil-to-Gel Cleanser suitable for sensitive skin?

The Oil-to-Gel Cleanser is dermatologically tested and approved for sensitive skin. Its gentle yet effective formula is moisturizing, non-comedogenic, and promotes healthy skin with vitamins, antioxidants, and omega fatty acids.

Why start with dry hands and skin?

Remember that oil and water do NOT mix! To activate the Oil-to-Gel Cleanser, like all oil cleansers, start with dry hands and dry skin to properly dissolve and remove makeup and daily impurities.

Once the cleanser has removed this material, then add water and allow the product to transform into a cleansing milk before finishing your routine.

How well does the Oil-to-Gel Cleanser remove makeup?

The Oil-to-Gel Cleanser easily removes complexion makeup, eyeliner, and mascara. It requires only gentle, circular movements to remove product, no scrubbing or harsh pressure necessary.

Optionally double cleanse after rinsing to remove any extra residue.

Is double cleansing necessary with the Oil-to-Gel Cleanser?

Double cleansing refers to following an oil-based cleanser with a water-based cleanser, and it's an optional skincare step designed to help maximize cleanser benefits!

For dry and sensitive skin types, the Oil-to-Gel Cleanser works perfectly as a solo cleanser. For oily and acne-prone skin types, and for makeup wearers, double cleansing may be preferred.

Does the Oil-to-Gel Cleanser have a fragrance or scent?

The Oil-to-Gel Cleanser has no added fragrance or perfumes. It is formulated with aloe vera and botanical extracts, which give it a natural, refreshing scent.

Can I use this while pregnant?

We get this question from MUTHA’s every day and we totally get why.

Our founder, Hope Smith, created MUTHA while she was pregnant because she could not find products that met her standards for clean, high-performance care. Every formula we make is dermatologist-tested, free of parabens, phthalates, PEGs, and the industry’s other no-gos. Plus, we are fully transparent about every single ingredient so you and your OB can review them with confidence.

While our community of moms, editors, and even doctors love MUTHA for pregnancy and beyond, we always recommend checking with your healthcare provider. Every body and every pregnancy is different, and what works for one pregnancy might not work for another. We will be here to support you through it all. 💜
