Sensitive Cleansing Gel

Sensitive or blemish-prone skin occurs when your skin's natural protection is disrupted. Your skin "lacks" its protective film, which generally ensures that bacteria cannot penetrate. The skin also becomes more susceptible to external influences such as heat or cold. Plus, dryness or redness occur more frequently. To build up the natural protective film, your skin requires particularly gentle cleansing. Our Sensitive Wash Gel is ideal for cleansing your skin down to the pores. It makes your impurities disappear and ensures a clear complexion. Furthermore, with oat extract and hemp oil, your skin is nourished and moisturized during cleansing. Thus, redness and dry patches don't stand a chance!

The story behind the product

We believe that nature has the best ingredients for your skin. That's why our products are 100% natural. We are permanently and passionately on the lookout for the best active ingredients for your individual skin needs. This is how our Sensitive series and the Sensitive Cleansing Gel came into being. Our goal was to create a wash gel that cleanses your skin deeply without irritating it. Moreover, it supports your natural protective barrier and prepares your skin optimally for the next steps in your skincare routine. For naturally beautiful skin, without compromise.

Made Near You

Our goal is to reduce CO2 emissions in the production of our products to an absolute minimum and make our products as sustainable as possible. For our new Sensitive range, it was our ambition from the very beginning to do even more to achieve this. This began with the search for the right ingredients. Because nature in our environment also has a lot of good things to offer your skin. That's why 89% of our Sensitive Cleansing Gel ingredients come from Europe and 83% from Germany. Our Sensitive Cleansing Gel is lovingly mixed and bottled by a small family business in Lower Saxony. And we go one step further: Since the creation of our products is not entirely without CO2, we support climate protection projects that offset this CO2 share. This way, we can manufacture our products for you in a climate-neutral way.

Hemp oil

I am a true all-around talent for your sensitive skin. My essential fatty acids protect your natural skin barrier. So moisture stays inside the skin, and bacteria and toxins remain outside. I also have a calming and anti-inflammatory effect. Thus, I can help your skin with redness or itching.

Oat extract

I am not only good for nutrition but also optimal for sensitive skin. My contained fats stop the loss of moisture and strengthen your skin. They are like a protective layer without making your skin greasy or looking like it. In addition, I have an anti-inflammatory and soothing effect.

Start by wetting your face with lukewarm water. A hazelnut-sized amount is already enough to cleanse your face intensively and gently. Massage me gently and then rinse me off with lukewarm water. You can use me in the morning and in the evening. For blemished skin, my application is actually recommended both in the evening as well as in the morning. In contrast, for sensitive skin, cleansing in the evening is often sufficient.

What is the pH-value of the product?

Where do my ingredients come from?
100% of my ingredients originate from Europe. In fact, over 54% of them come directly from Germany.

Where am I produced?
100% Made in Europa. I am made with love by a family company from Portugal.

How is my recycling rate?
My outer packaging and the glass that surrounds me are made from recycled materials.

Where is my pump from?
The pump I use originates from a little further away. We are, of course, continuing to work on ensuring that it, too, will shortly no longer have to travel a long way. The original plan was to source my pump from Europe. However, something came along that threw us all off track a bit: Covid19. In order to still be able to provide you with your care, my pump has traveled a long way from China. It will be replaced promptly with the original pump from Europe.

Where is my bottle from?
My bottle originates from a small family business in Austria and is made from 87% recycled materials. 44% of it stems from recycled glass cullet that has been created in industry. The other 43% represents post-consumer recycled glass, that you have already disposed of at some point in the used glass container.

Where is my label from?
My label takes a new approach of sustainable material extraction: zero tree cutting, zero water and zero bleach. My stone film consists of 80% calcium carbonate and 20% high-density recycled polyethylene. My calcium carbonate comprises stone dust created during quarrying in a marble quarry. You can dispose of my stone foil label in your yellow garbage can in order to return it to the recycling loop.

What is my outer packaging made out of?
My folding carton is made from 100% recycled paper. With recycled paper, the fibers may look different each time it is produced, therefore you may notice that not every one of my cartons is 100% identical. To me, it's more important to have an eco-friendly and sustainable envelope than to look perfect.
