Not sure it's right for your skin? Four questions — Daddy will tell you.

Blackberry, sage, burdock. An airy mousse that purifies without the pull — oily skin, put in its place. Flesh, absolved.

Oily skin gets punished for it. Harsh foams, alcohol, that squeak that feels like progress and is actually the skin being told to make more. PURGO is the correction — a light, airy mousse on an organic aloe base that dissolves sebum, buildup and the day off the surface and leaves the barrier where it found it.

Organic blackberry, sage and burdock root do the purifying: sage and burdock have been the plants for congested skin for as long as anyone's been writing it down, blackberry for the antioxidants. A rhamnose-glucose complex and sweet flag root calm things on the way out; sodium PCA and glycerin put water back so the result is skin that's clean and hydrated, not clean and waiting. Sugar-derived cleansing agents, nothing that strips, nothing that clogs.

Lather. Massage. Rinse. Pores clear, conscience clear.

What it does

  • Dissolves impurities and removes excess sebum
  • Hydrates without clogging pores
  • Purifies without stripping or over-drying
  • Leaves skin clean, balanced, and supremely hydrated

What is in it

Aloe leaf juice

Used as the water phase rather than as a claim. Hydrating and calming from the first ingredient down.

Sodium PCA

Part of skin's own natural moisturising factor. Replaces what washing takes out, and keeps the hydration from evaporating off again.

Blackberry

Organic blackberry fruit extract. Antioxidant and mildly astringent — doing real work in a mousse built to purify without stripping.

Sage

Organic sage leaf extract. The traditional reach for oily, blemish-prone skin — cooling, mildly antibacterial.

Burdock

Organic burdock root extract. The old herbalist's answer to congested skin, still doing the same job in a modern wash.

How to use

Morning and evening. Lather one or two pumps in the hands, apply to damp face and neck, massage gently for thirty seconds, rinse with water. Follow with SICCUS, then PREBIOTIC ONE and BASIS or CENSOR II. Breakout-prone: alternate with CENSOR. On ACIES nights, PURGO is fine — it's the toner you skip.

Oily skin doesn't need punishing; it needs a wash that doesn't start a fight. If it squeaks, it's too harsh. This foams, cleans and stops. Twice a day, then keep your hands off your face.
