Most cleansers either leave skin feeling tight or not quite clean enough. Garnier SkinActive Vitamin C Brightening Cream Cleanser is designed to do both jobs properly: it lifts away impurities, SPF and pollution while supporting a fresh, luminous look after every wash.

The formula is powered by vitamin C derivative ascorbyl glucoside, known for targeting dullness and supporting a more even-looking complexion over time. Glycerin helps attract and hold water in the outer layers of the skin, while citric acid works on the surface to support gentle exfoliation and smoother-feeling skin.

This is a creamy gel that transforms into a soft, foaming lather on damp skin. It rinses away easily, leaving skin feeling clean, comfortable and noticeably refreshed rather than dry or squeaky. The result is a smoother base that looks brighter and feels ready for the rest of your routine.

Use it morning and evening as the first step in your skincare routine, or as a second cleanse after make-up removal. Massage onto damp skin for at least 30 seconds to allow the vitamin C derivative to work on the surface, then rinse thoroughly with lukewarm water and gently pat skin dry.

Pro Tips

• Massage for at least 30–60 seconds to maximise contact time and help lift away impurities effectively.
• Use as a second cleanse after a separate make-up remover if you wear long-wear or waterproof products.
• Avoid very hot water, which can contribute to dryness and discomfort; stick to lukewarm temperatures.
• Gently cleanse down the neck to remove skincare, SPF and pollution you apply beyond the face.
