Overview
Obagi Medical's cleansing gel comes in a 6 fluid ounce bottle, formulated with aloe vera and vitamin C, and is marketed for dermatology use rather than as a general drugstore cleanser.
The listing targets skin showing hyperpigmentation, uneven tone, or sun damage across normal to oily and normal to dry skin types, positioning it as a clarifying step that also lifts makeup and everyday buildup. It carries a rank of 148 in facial cleansing gels and is described with brightening and protecting benefits alongside its cleansing role.
- 6 fluid ounce bottle
- Aloe vera and vitamin C
- Lavender scent
- Dermatology recommended use
Who it's for
Works for people managing uneven tone or sun damage who want a cleanser doing double duty as a light makeup remover. Not the right fit for anyone wanting a fragrance free option, since it carries a lavender scent.
Strengths and trade-offs
Drawn from this product's published specifications.
- Formulated with aloe vera and vitamin C
- Removes makeup and excess oil while cleansing
- Targets hyperpigmentation and uneven tone
- Gluten free formula
- Contains lavender scent, not fragrance free
- Listing data mixes cream and gel descriptions
Performance notes
Vitamin C is included for its brightening role while aloe vera supports the gel's soothing side as it lifts makeup, oil, and daily impurities from the skin. The gluten free formulation is a manufacturing note rather than a skin benefit for most users.
