La Roche-Posay Mela B3 Clarifying Micro Peeling Gel Cleanser 200ml
R499.00
A gentle gel cleanser with micro-peeling action that cleanses, exfoliates, and helps fade dark spots while preserving moisture and respecting sensitive skin.
Product Description+
This cleanser from the Mela B3 line uses a trio of actives — Melasyl™, niacinamide, and a polyhydroxy acid (PHA; specifically gluconolactone) — to cleanse skin mildly yet effectively. It removes dirt, oil, and impurities without stripping or overdrying, while its micro-peeling effect helps speed up cell renewal, visibly brighten skin tone, and reduce the appearance of pigmentation (such as sun spots, post-acne marks, etc.). It is alcohol-free, non-comedogenic, dermatologist tested, formulated for all skin types (including sensitive), and supports the skin’s natural moisture barrier.
How to Use+
- Apply to wet face (morning and/or evening).
- Gently massage in circular motions to cleanse and encourage micro-peeling action.
- Rinse thoroughly and pat dry.
- Avoid getting product into eyes; if contact occurs, rinse well.
