Getting the perfect cleanse every time
Renata @rendagrella explains how she gets the perfect cleanse. Wash too much and you’ve overstripped your skin of necessary oils. Underwash and you’ve left excess oil and debris on your skin.

Working on sensitive, acne-prone skin
Myioshi @_oshiii_ comments on how So Fresh works well on sensitive skin. The rich texture does not leave a residue and provides a gentle, refreshing tingle.

Especially helpful against maskne
Caroline @carolinemccroskey explains how the peppermint tingle has helped her identify areas where she missed out in washing. This has been especially helpful against maskne as she no longer misses areas where bacteria can accumulate.

Why is So Fresh Cleanser different?
Wash too much and you have overstripped your skin of natural oils. Wash too little and you have left oxidizing agents and debris on your skin. So Fresh Cleanser helps you get the perfect balance by providing a gentle tingle when it has taken off enough oil.
When using this cleanser, you will find that different areas of your face require more/less time working in product. Simply spend more time working the cleanser in areas where you do not yet feel a tingle.
With a balanced cleanse, you will find that your skin is more supple and primed for the next products that you use after So Fresh.
This gentle cleanser does not contain artificial fragrance or colorants. The tingle and scent is coming purely from plant extracts.

Key Facts
This gentle, soap-free cleansing gel was developed for people who want a more balanced cleanse. You will find that certain areas of your face (especially around the eyes) require very little product and you should focus elsewhere in working in your cleaners.
What it does:
This cleanser uses a non-comedogenic compound derived from coconut that gently cleanses your skin without stripping away natural oils. This cleanser does not clog pores.
What it is formulated without:
Artificial fragrance-, Colorant-, paraben-, lanolin-free. PETA certified vegan and cruelty-free. The scent and tingle come from pure plant extracts.
What makes Clearly Basics different?
We’ve taken products that are often EXCLUSIVELY sold in a dermatologist’s office at 3x the price and made it available for everyday consumers. We select USP certified medical grade ingredients when potency matters, but less expensive cosmetic grade ingredients when purity is not a concern.
The most frequent comment we get in our reviews is that users have tried everything and nothing has come close to the results they have seen with our formulations.
Application Instructions
- Using lukewarm water, rinse your face.
- Apply the cleanser to your skin and massage gently with a circular motion using your fingertips or a soft, clean washcloth. Refrain from using abrasives, loofah sponges, brushes or scrubs
- Rinse your face for a few seconds with lukewarm water until the cleanser is completely gone.
- Using a clean, soft cotton towel, pat your skin until dry
The Cleanser is a highly concentrated formulation so a partial pump is sufficient to cleanse your whole face.

@itsangels_makeup I’ve started using The Power Duo + Protective moisturizer nearly 6 months ago after many positives reviews that I’ve read.
The first thing that I’ve experience has been the “purge” coming with clear out and it can last a loooong time. So this review is for people like me who experienced the purge for more that a month or two: keep going.
Because when I was about to quit I’ve seen a huuuuge difference with my skin. My skin is so much smoother than it was before Clearly Basics. So keep going, use Clearly Basics and stay positive!

@beatlebarbs Hey guys! So I rarely write reviews, but I’m going make an exception, because it literally changed my life (what a cliche I know).
I’ve suffered from acne pretty much my whole life. I’m generally a happy and optimistic person, or at least I try to be, but acne made it impossible for me. It got to a point where I couldn’t look at myself in the mirror without crying. I didn’t wanna go out or even meet my friends. My self confidence was nonexistent. I had severe anxieties and break downs. I sought the help of a GP and dermatologist but nothing worked. Antibiotics made it even worse.
Then I read about the Clear Out and the reviews were great. Still a bit skeptical, I decided to give it a shot and thank God I did. My skin improved drastically and even though I still get a pimple or two every now and then, I am overall very happy with the results.

@gabriela.akrapovi Absolutely so happy with this product! My cheeks were congested and had so many breakouts and redness I didn’t know what to do anymore. I tried everything. I kept seeing Clearly Basics showing up on my Facebook and Instagram and thought what the hell and decided to order the complete trio moisturizer pack. It came in cute packaging and the directions were clear. I started using it two months ago and my god there is a lot of improvement!! My cheeks are less congested and red. I have mostly dark spots but the Lighten Up is definitely helping with that! I rarely get any big breakouts and even if a pimple starts to show the Clear Out stops it in it’s track. The Protective Moisturizer is great for my sensitive skin and helps keep my skin feel moisturized but doesn’t make my skin go oily. I definitely would recommend this product and I can’t wait to see how my skin will be in the few months using Clearly Basics! Thanks Clearly Basics!!

@megdaviesx I’ve suffered with acne since I was 12 years old. Now at 25 I just accepted that I’d always have acne prone skin. When I came across Clearly, I had pretty much run out of hope, thinking ‘well why the hell not give it a go!’.
Only 2 months into my new routine, and I can’t believe this is my skin!! I am happy to go out of the house without makeup on but doing makeup isn’t a chore anymore either. My confidence has grown and I can’t believe I didn’t find Clearly sooner!

@theclearskinroad My @clearlybasics update!! The photos on the left were October 2nd and the photos on the right were today (October 11th).
I’ve been using the Power Duo for Clearly Basics for about 2 months now, and now starting to see quick results! My favourite is the “Clear Out” 🤗 Loving the results and exciting to keep using Clearly products!

Michaela Holzhuter I’ve struggled with adult acne for years. I’ve spent hundreds of dollars trying to grab at the next promise for clear skin. Clearly Basics is the first brand that actually worked for me! It’s simple (it actually decreased the time I was spending caring for my skin), it’s scale-able (buy one product or by seven!), and it works. I couldn’t be happier with this product and the continuous progress it has provided!
