Frequently asked questions
Which ZO Skin Health cleanser do I need?
It depends on your skin type. Gentle Cleanser: the mildest option with green tea and oat amino acids — suitable for dry, sensitive, and combination skin, and for those using retinol. Hydrating Cleanser: mild, with urea (5 %) — specifically designed to complement retinol routines and protect the skin barrier. Complexion Renewal Pads or Oil Control Pads: additional chemical exfoliation for oily, acne-prone skin. If you are unsure, Gentle Cleanser is the right starting point.
Why should I use a gentle cleanser instead of a foaming one?
A foaming cleanser with surfactants removes oil and dirt effectively, but can disrupt the skin's natural lipid barrier — especially with sensitive or dry skin, or when using retinol. Gentle Cleanser cleanses without stripping, which means less redness, less dryness, and better tolerance of your active ingredients.
Why cleanse for 60 seconds — isn't less enough?
60 seconds sounds long but makes a real difference. During this time, the green tea and oat amino acids can bind oil, dirt, and residues — rather than just running over the skin. Research shows that brief cleansing leaves up to 30 % more residue on the skin. For retinol users in particular, proper cleansing means fewer irritations.
Can this cleanser also remove make-up?
For full make-up removal (especially waterproof products and foundation), you need a dedicated make-up remover or micellar water first. Gentle Cleanser is the second step — it removes the final residues of the remover and cleanses the skin. If you wear light make-up only (tinted moisturiser, powder), it can also work as a standalone step.
How often should I use this cleanser?
Morning and evening — gently massage in for 60 seconds. That is optimal. Do not rub longer; even with a gentle formula, over-cleansing can dry the skin out.
