Overview
A 5 ounce gel cleanser from MELE, made with glycerin and labeled antimicrobial for daily face washing. It is dermatologist tested and free of parabens, sulfates and phthalates, sold in a tube for all skin types.
MELE is a Unilever brand, and this cleanser leans on glycerin, a common humectant, to keep the face from feeling stripped after washing, a frequent complaint with sulfate-heavy gels. The antimicrobial claim on the packaging is a marketed feature rather than a medical one, worth treating as a selling point rather than a substitute for treatment when skin issues are present.
- 5 ounce gel cleanser
- Glycerin formula
- Free of parabens, sulfates and phthalates
- Dermatologist tested
Who it's for
Works for anyone across skin types who wants a daily gel cleanser that will not leave skin tight afterward. Not aimed at a specific concern like acne or aging, so those needs will need a separate product.
Strengths and trade-offs
Drawn from this product's published specifications.
- Free of parabens, sulfates and phthalates
- Glycerin formula for all skin types
- 5 ounce tube for daily use
- No targeted claim for acne, aging or other specific concerns
- Antimicrobial labeling is a marketing feature, not a treatment
Performance notes
Glycerin cleansers tend to rinse cleaner than oil cleansers while being gentler than sulfate foaming washes, since glycerin does not strip natural oils the way sulfates can. That makes this the kind of cleanser suited to twice-daily use rather than a deep or heavy makeup removal step.
