A fresh start for skin that collects oil and makeup through the day
When you want your cleanser to tackle makeup, daily buildup and excess oil in one step, SkinCeuticals Simply Clean is worth knowing. This gel face wash is designed for normal, oily and combination skin, with gentle exfoliating support for a smoother-looking surface.
The 200 mL formula combines an amino-acid-based cleansing system with HEPES, glycerin and botanical ingredients. It offers a different feel from a creamy cleanser, making it a useful option if you like a fresh gel texture. Tell us if your skin feels tight after washing so we can help you choose the most comfortable fit.
A few helpful things to know about this product:
- Choose a cleanser around your whole routine: If you use retinol or leave-on acids, another exfoliating step may not always be necessary. Tell us what is already on your shelf.
- Cleansing should feel comfortable: A squeaky, tight feeling is not the goal. Use gentle movements, rinse well and avoid very hot water.
- Keep makeup removal practical: The supplier describes this as suitable for waterproof makeup removal. Take your time, and do not pull at the delicate skin around your eyes.
- Do not confuse a blend percentage with an acid strength: SkinCeuticals describes a 6% combined ingredient blend. That does not mean this cleanser contains 6% of a single exfoliating acid.
Notable skin care ingredients:
Amino-acid-based surfactants: The cleansing system helps lift away daily impurities, makeup and excess oil.
HEPES and citric acid: Support surface exfoliation for a smoother-looking texture.
Glycerin: A moisture-attracting ingredient that helps balance the cleansing experience.
Chamomile and aloe extracts: Botanical skin conditioners. The formula also includes orange oil, so check the label if you have ingredient sensitivities.
These are selected ingredients, not the complete ingredient list. Check your packaging for the current formula, especially if you have an ingredient allergy.

Frequently asked questions
Click a question to read the answer.
Who is Simply Clean designed for?
SkinCeuticals positions it for normal, oily and combination skin, especially when makeup removal, excess oil and surface texture are concerns.
Is Simply Clean a leave-on product?
No. It is a rinse-off cleanser. Massage onto wet skin and rinse thoroughly before applying your next skincare steps.
Is it the same as LHA Cleansing Gel?
No. They are separate formulas. LHA Cleansing Gel focuses more directly on an exfoliating LHA, glycolic acid and salicylic acid combination for blemish-prone skin. We can help compare them.
Do I need an exfoliating toner afterwards?
Not automatically. Simply Clean already includes exfoliating ingredients. Tell us about your other products before adding another acid-based step.
