Face Wash Powder Benefits

Cleanses Skin

Your skin is a reflection of your inner health, so choosing the correct face wash is important. Using face wash powders, you can create a deep cleansing product that purifies the skin without harsh chemicals or allergens.

Promotes a Youthful Glow

Face wash powder brings some unique progressive benefits—including leaving your face looking ever so young and vibrant. Not only is face wash powder gentle on the skin and easy to use, but it also helps remove dirt and oil buildup while exfoliating the face without harsh scrubbing.

Face Wash Powder Ingredients + EWG Score

No need to worry about the safety of our face wash powder–we have you covered! With an EWG score that reflects its low hazard rating, you can trust that the ingredients are only those fit for our prized product.

Oryza Sativa Starch (Rice Starch) (2)

If you want to keep your skin glowing and healthy, Oryza Sativa Starch (or Rice Starch) is an excellent face wash powder ingredient. Not only is it gentle and non-irritating on even the most sensitive skin types, but its natural exfoliating properties help minimize the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, and blemishes.

Sodium Lauroyl Glutamate (1)

When it comes to keeping clean, Sodium Lauroyl Glutamate is something you want in your arsenal. This amazing ingredient can be found in various face washes, body cleansers, and other cosmetics. So whether you need an extra boost in the bubble department or a stronger surfactant-friendly formula, Sodium Lauroyl Glutamate is the perfect ingredient to add.

Mannitol (1)

Mannitol is derived from plants, so you can trust that it’s gentle on your skin while still being quite effective. But what makes it especially useful is its ability to help bind moisture and form a protective barrier on the skin – perfect for dry climates or seasons. Plus, when used with Hyaluronic Acid, this powerhouse of an ingredient can reinforce your skin’s elasticity and hydration levels for a healthier complexion.

Sodium Cocoyl Glycinate (1)

Sodium Cocoyl Glycinate is a mild surfactant derived from natural sources. This face wash powder ingredient is perfect for gentle cleansing solutions that get the job done. Plus, it’s based on the same amino acid (Glycine) our bodies use to make collagen―for luscious skin that looks softer and more supple than ever before.

Sodium Cocoyl Isethionate (1)

If there’s one secret ingredient to thank for a satisfying lather, that’s gotta be Sodium Cocoyl Isethionate! It’s a mild surfactant derived from coconut, and it does all the hard work in giving your skin the much-needed suds. But not just that – this natural ingredient also helps your skin look softer and silkier after every wash.

Protease (2)

Adding Protease to your face wash powder is a move you won’t regret. Not only does it provide your skin with the necessary proteins, but it also helps minerals and vitamins do their job better. It’s like having a personal vitamin-mineral cheerleader—or perhaps the ultimate protein snack buddy!

Acacia Senegal Gum (1)

As its name suggests, it comes straight from the Acacia Senegal Tree. It uses hardened sap to make a unique polysaccharide. That polysaccharide comprises calcium, magnesium, and potassium salts – sounds impressive, right? All these components work together to gently cleanse and exfoliate your face, leaving you looking as fresh as ever!

Hydroxypropyl Methylcellulose (1)

Hydroxypropyl Methylcellulose is a water-loving polymer that works as a binding agent and helps ensure the powder combines perfectly with your cleanser. Not only that, but it also improves texture, stabilizes the emulsifying process, and even enhances foaming capabilities.

Sodium Hyaluronate (1)

If you’re looking for an ingredient in face wash powder that will boost your skin’s hydration and keep it feeling soft and moisturized, look no further than sodium hyaluronate. Plus, it’s gentle enough for even the most sensitive and breakout-prone among us.

Sodium Polygamma-Glutamate (1)

Sodium Polygamma-Glutamate helps keep your face wash from separating into its components, making it last longer. Plus, it’s a great way to keep that perfect viscosity by controlling how thick or thin your wash ends up.

Yeast Ferment Extract (1)

Because of its effectiveness, yeast Ferment Extract has become a popular ingredient for face wash powder products. It helps make your skincare routine more effective, hydrates, and adds an extra boost to your skin’s collagen synthesis and elastin production to keep it looking youthful. Plus, yeast ferment also reduces inflammation and keeps you looking smooth and healthy.

Tips & Tricks

  • This Face Wash Powder works best if, before using it, you get your face and your hands wet! I get my hands and face wet and use a pea-sized amount of the Face Wash Powder. I’ll then create a lather by rubbing my hands together. Then I’ll massage it on my face and rinse!
  • With this Face Wash Powder, there is a little bit of a learning curve. It’s hard to know what will work best for every skincare routine. I recommend that you start with a pea-sized amount and adjust from there. Additionally, I LOVE using a facial serum right after washing my face before bed. It is the BEST combination for my skin.
  • Our Face Wash Powder also has ingredients that act as a surfactant. Because of this, you may notice that the lathered mixture has bubbles, and it foams up nicely. I love that about this product. The ingredients are stellar. 
  • If you don’t have a nice lather after you rub your hands together, add more Face Wash Powder.
  • It is also important to note that you should avoid making a big batch of Face Wash Powder mixed with water to store. It will not perform as it should. So each time you use it, you’ll need to get your hands wet and use a pea-sized amount!
