Anthony Algae Facial Cleanser (237ml)

A hydrating daily cleanser that leaves skin feeling genuinely better after washing - not tight, not stripped, just clean, calm, and comfortable. Anthony's Algae Facial Cleanser harnesses the skin-nourishing properties of algae, aloe vera, lavender, and rosehip oil to cleanse thoroughly while actively replenishing moisture throughout the process.

The formula doubles as a hydrating facial mask - apply, leave on for five to ten minutes, and rinse for an added boost of soothing treatment on days when skin needs more attention. Clinically proven, dermatologist tested, and free of sulfates, parabens, and phthalates. A consistent bestseller in the Anthony range for good reason.

Who's It For

Suited to all skin types, particularly those prone to dryness, sensitivity, or post-cleanse tightness. An excellent option for anyone whose skin feels worse after washing rather than better - and a smart daily cleanser for anyone incorporating active treatments like retinol or glycolic acid into their routine who needs a gentle, non-stripping base.

Key Benefits

• Cleanses Without Stripping - A sulfate-free base removes dirt and impurities without compromising the skin's natural moisture barrier.
• Actively Hydrates While It Cleanses - Algae and aloe vera replenish moisture during the cleansing process rather than depleting it.
• Soothes Sensitivity and Redness - Lavender extract and guaiazulene calm irritation and help even out post-cleanse redness.
• Supports Skin Barrier Health - Rosehip oil delivers vitamins and antioxidants that protect the skin and support elasticity over time.
• Doubles as a Hydrating Mask - Apply and leave on for five to ten minutes for an additional layer of soothing, skin-replenishing treatment.
• Suitable for Daily Use - Gentle enough for morning and evening use without causing irritation or buildup. 

Key Ingredients

• Algae (Laminaria Ochroleuca Extract) - Nourishes, refreshes, and helps hydrate the skin effectively while neutralising free radicals from environmental exposure.
• Aloe Vera (Aloe Barbadensis Leaf Juice Powder) - Soothes and moisturizes during cleansing, retaining moisture and delivering antioxidant-rich support throughout.
• Lavender Extract (Lavandula Angustifolia Flower Extract) - Rich in anti-inflammatory properties, helps treat acne-related marks, even skin tone, and calm the complexion.
• Rosehip Oil (Rosa Canina Fruit Extract) - Helps protect and hydrate the skin, reduce the appearance of wrinkles, and address dark spots and scarring through its vitamin and antioxidant content.
• Guaiazulene - A natural anti-inflammatory derived from chamomile that soothes redness and sensitivity during and after cleansing. 

How To Use

Apply to damp skin and massage gently over face and neck. Rinse with warm water. Use morning and night. For use as a hydrating mask: apply to skin, leave on for five to ten minutes, then rinse thoroughly.

Why MASC Recommends This

Most cleansers do one job - remove what's on the skin. The Algae Facial Cleanser goes a step further by actively supporting hydration and skin barrier health while it cleans. Algae, aloe vera, and rosehip oil are genuinely nourishing ingredients in a cleanser context, and the dual mask function adds practical versatility for anyone whose routine could use an occasional treatment boost without adding another product to the shelf.
