At SKN TO SKN, we understand that skin’s needs can shift dramatically, especially during key life stages such as pregnancy, postpartum, or hormonal changes. That’s why we developed the Balancing Act Gel-to-Oil Cleanser: a gentle, dermatologist-developed formulation designed to cleanse without compromise.
This innovative gel-to-oil cleanser transforms upon contact with the skin, effortlessly dissolving daily impurities, make-up, SPF and pollution. Rich in omega fatty acids, virgin maracuja oil and vitamin E, it deeply hydrates, nourishes and helps restore the skin’s natural barrier, leaving the complexion soft, rebalanced, and glowing.
Why It Works:
Formulated in collaboration with dermatologists and approved by GPs, every ingredient in the Balancing Act Cleanser has been carefully selected for efficacy and tolerance, including for those who are pregnant, breastfeeding or have sensitive skin.
Key Active Ingredients:
- Inca Omega Oil (1%)
Cold-pressed from the seeds of the Peruvian Sacha Inchi plant, this oil contains one of the highest concentrations of omega-3 and -6 fatty acids found in nature. These essential lipids help reduce transepidermal water loss and restore the skin barrier, supporting lasting hydration and resilience.
- Virgin Maracuja Oil (3%)
Extracted from passionfruit seeds via first cold pressing, maracuja oil is rich in tocopherols and tocotrienols - potent antioxidants that help strengthen and protect the skin from environmental stressors. It absorbs quickly, leaving no greasy residue, and has a subtle, naturally fruity scent.
- Floraester K-100 Jojoba (1.25%)
This jojoba-derived emollient is known for its high substantivity — meaning it continues to hydrate even after rinsing, offering lasting moisturisation and skin comfort.
- Vitamin E (0.1%)
A time-tested antioxidant that not only defends against free radicals caused by pollution and UV exposure, but also soothes inflammation and helps reduce signs of premature ageing.
