Love this cleanser

"This is powerful yet gentle at the same time. Depending upon how my skin is feeling, sometimes I rotate between this and gentle cleansing lotion."

— Erin P. (5/5)

Not for sensitive skin

"I was hopeful this would work for me! My skin is a little sensitive but had been in good shape since using other barefaced products. Unfortunately this is too much for my skin and I wouldn’t recommend. Sadly, I’m back to repairing my skin barrier."

— Brittney E. (2/5)

Q&A

I am 63 and use the whole regimen with the exception of the cleanser. I am dry and some times of the year oily in the t zone but mostly dry.
Hi! Thank you for reaching out. For dry sensitive skin we recommend the Gentle Cleansing Lotion. If you would like to email us (hello@barefaced.com) some makeup free photos of your skin, we would be happy to assist and provide further recommendations based on your skin type!
What is the fragrance made of?
Hi Ashley! The fragrance used in Papaya Enzyme Cleanser is sourced from natural and synthetic ingredients. Additional details cannot be disclosed as the fragrance is considered a trade secret. Please email hello@barefaced.com if you have any other questions.
Does this come with a pump?
Hi Bristen! The 16oz Papaya Enzyme Cleanser does come with a pump. The 6.7oz cleanser does not come with a pump.
Is this better to use before or after a shower/regular face wash?
Hi Rebecca! Cleansing with another face wash is not necessary when using Papaya Enzyme Cleanser. However, we do recommend double cleansing at night to fully cleanse the skin. We recommend using micellar water or facial cleansing balm for the first cleanse and following up with Papaya Enzyme Cleanser. Or, you may cleanse twice with Papaya Enzyme Cleanser. 🙂
Can I use the Papaya Cleanser to remove eye makeup?
Hi Vicky! You absolutely can. It will most likely take two cleanses with the Papaya Enzyme Cleanser to effectively remove makeup. If you notice sensitivity around the eye area then avoid that area with the cleanser. We prefer using micellar water or a cleansing balm to remove makeup, and following up with Papaya Enzyme Cleanser for a second cleanse.
