User Feedback

However, some users with oily or breakout-prone skin have reported breakouts or purging—especially around the chin and forehead. Discontinuing use helped reverse the issue.

FAQs
Is the Ampoule Foam suitable for sensitive skin?
Yes. It’s formulated with 33% Centella Asiatica extract, gentle coconut-derived surfactants, and a pH of around 5, making it ideal for sensitive or easily irritated skin. However, patch testing is always recommended for highly reactive skin.
Does it help with acne or oily skin?
It provides deep cleansing with baking soda and citric acid, which can help reduce excess oil and impurities. While many acne-prone users benefit from it, a small number report purging or breakouts—likely due to individual sensitivities.
Can I use it daily, morning and night?
Yes, the Ampoule Foam is gentle enough for daily use, both AM and PM, without stripping the skin of moisture—especially when followed by toner and moisturizer.
Does it remove makeup or sunscreen effectively?
It removes light makeup and sunscreen, but for heavy or waterproof makeup, it’s best used as a second step in a double cleansing routine, following an oil-based cleanser.
