The Shuunnya promise

A daily clarifying wash for oily and congested skin that unblocks pores with bioavailable salicylic acid while keeping the moisture barrier soothed and balanced.

  • Salicylic Acid 1.0% at pH 3.90, giving 10% active free acid to clear pores
  • Carried in bio-based propanediol to dissolve the acid without drying alcohol
  • Niacinamide 1.5% and Panthenol 1.0% to soothe redness and balance surface sebum
  • Mild taurate and coconut cleansers that degrease thoroughly without stripping
  • Zero menthol sting, zero fragrance, zero sulphates, and zero abrasive beads

Details

A daily clarifying gel cleanser for oily, congested, and breakout-prone skin. It pairs pharmaceutical-grade salicylic acid with soothing barrier actives and gentle amino-acid cleansers, clearing pores deeply while keeping skin calm, clear, and comfortable.

  • Bioavailable pore clearing: Salicylic Acid at 1.0% dissolves oil and cellular debris trapped deep inside pores. Formulated at active pH 3.90, where exactly 10% exists as active free acid ready to work.
  • Non-drying carrier: Carried in plant-derived propanediol (5.0%) rather than cheap denatured alcohol, dissolving the acid cleanly without drying skin or triggering rebound oiliness.
  • Gentle amino-acid cleansing: Cleanses with mild coconut-derived taurate and betaine at 8.5% active matter, creating a soft lather that degreases thoroughly without stripping barrier lipids.
  • Soothing and pore-refining: Enriched with Niacinamide (1.5%) to balance midday shine and refine pore appearance, Provitamin B5 (Panthenol 1.0%) for hydration, and Green Tea extract (0.5%) for antioxidant calming.
  • Zero sensory cheats: No menthol and no camphor, so there is no fake cold burn or stinging sensation masquerading as cleanliness.
  • How to use: Work one pump (about 1.5 ml) into a lather, massage over damp face for 30 to 60 seconds (focusing on the T-zone), then rinse with cool or lukewarm water. Start once daily at night; build to twice daily as skin tolerates.
  • The right cleanser for you: Ideal for oily or blemish-prone skin. If your skin is normal or combination, choose the Gentle Daily Face Wash; if dry or sensitive, use the Cream Face Wash instead.
  • Packaging: Heavy flint glass bottle with a 1.5 ml lockable lotion pump that delivers a metered single wash, in an unlaminated white-top kraft carton.

Full list
Aqua, Sodium Methyl Cocoyl Taurate, Cocamidopropyl Betaine, Coco-Glucoside, Propanediol, Glycerin, Niacinamide, Salicylic Acid, Panthenol, Camellia Sinensis Leaf Extract, Phenoxyethanol, Sodium Benzoate, Xanthan Gum, Ethylhexylglycerin, Sodium Phytate, Sodium Hydroxide
Aqua (Purified water)
62.35 percent, purified to IP grade; conductivity under 1.3 microsiemens per cm
Sodium Methyl Cocoyl Taurate (Coconut amino-acid cleanser)
10.0 percent as supplied (30 percent active paste, so 3.0 percent active surfactant); mild coconut amino-acid cleanser, completely resistant to acid breakdown at pH 3.90
Cocamidopropyl Betaine (Coconut-derived cleanser)
8.0 percent as supplied (30 percent active, so 2.4 percent active surfactant); buffers the surfactant system, stabilizes lather, and cushions skin
Coco-Glucoside (Coconut and corn sugar cleanser)
6.0 percent as supplied (52 percent active, so 3.12 percent active surfactant); gentle non-ionic cleanser from coconut and corn sugars
Total active surfactant
About 8.52 percent; optimal dermatological level for oily skin: thorough degreasing without barrier stripping or rebound oiliness
Propanediol (Corn-derived hydrator)
5.0 percent; bio-fermented 1,3-propanediol (Zemea), dissolves salicylic acid cleanly without drying alcohol
Glycerin (Vegetable)
3.0 percent; vegetable humectant that prevents post-wash tightness
Niacinamide (Vitamin B3)
1.5 percent; pure Vitamin B3 (<100 ppm nicotinic acid), regulates sebum, refines pore appearance, and calms redness
Salicylic Acid (Wintergreen / willow bark BHA)
1.0 percent total; oil-soluble BHA active. At formula pH 3.90, the bioavailable free-acid fraction is 10.5 percent (stated on pack as 10 percent)
Panthenol (Provitamin B5)
1.0 percent; Provitamin B5, preserves barrier hydration and calms irritation
The 1 percent line
Falls immediately after Panthenol. All sixteen ingredients sum to 100.00 percent
Camellia Sinensis Leaf Extract (Green tea extract)
0.5 percent; real green tea leaf extract providing antioxidant polyphenols
Phenoxyethanol (Gentle preservative)
0.5 percent; anti-bacterial preservative, well under the 1.0 percent regulatory ceiling
Sodium Benzoate (Food-grade preservative)
0.45 percent; organic food-grade preservative, converts to 66.1 percent active benzoic acid at pH 3.90 for airtight anti-mould defense
Xanthan Gum (Plant fermentation gum)
0.4 percent; natural polysaccharide rheology modifier for smooth pump dispensing
Ethylhexylglycerin (Vegetable-derived booster)
0.1 percent; preservative booster and skin conditioning agent
Sodium Phytate (Rice bran extract)
0.1 percent; plant-derived chelator that binds hard water minerals
Sodium Hydroxide (Mineral pH balancer)
About 0.10 percent; naturally buffers and titrates the formula to pH 3.90 ± 0.10
What is left out, and what took its place
Alcohol denat
None. Bio-based propanediol 5.0 percent dissolves the acid instead. Cheap denatured alcohol dries oily skin and triggers rebound sebum production
Menthol and camphor
Neither. A cooling sting is a sensory trick, not a cleansing action, and on congested skin it is an added irritant
Sulphates & harsh cleansers
Zero SLS, zero SLES, zero laureth sulfosuccinate. Replaced by mild sodium methyl cocoyl taurate, betaine, and coco-glucoside
Parabens & isothiazolinones
No parabens, and no MIT or CMIT. Replaced by Sodium Benzoate 0.45 percent, Phenoxyethanol 0.5 percent, and Ethylhexylglycerin 0.1 percent
Fragrance & allergens
None. Zero parfum, zero essential oils, and zero masking fragrance; screened for all 26 declarable fragrance allergens
Abrasive scrub particles
None. Zero plastic microbeads and zero crushed walnut shells that cause micro-tears in skin
Second acid
None. No glycolic, lactic or fruit acids stacked on top. One lipophilic pore-clearing acid is the whole design
