Aesop Fabulous Face Cleanser
Prices and availability subject to change.
Overview
Aesop Fabulous Face Cleanser is a gentle, olive-derived gel cleanser formulated to remove daily grime without stripping the skin’s natural moisture. It produces a low foam, so it cleanses effectively while preserving the skin’s tonal balance and barrier — a helpful choice for those who find foaming cleansers too drying. The formula leans on botanical extracts and carefully selected lab‑validated ingredients, and is free from parabens, animal ingredients and color additives. Because it rinses clean and is vegan and cruelty-free, it works well as a daily morning or evening step for sensitive or normal skin types, and for anyone moving toward a milder skincare routine.
Key Features
- Olive-based gel cleanser: uses olive-derived surfactants for mild, effective cleansing

- Usage guideline: small dose (about half a teaspoon) massaged over face and neck, then rinsed
- Clean and ethical formulation: paraben-free, animal ingredient-free, color additive-free, vegan and cruelty-free
- Manufacture origin: formulated and produced in Australia using botanical plus lab-validated ingredients
