This isn't your average cleanser. It's a strategic first step, engineered to reset your skin without stripping it. Breakwater is a balm that melts into oil, emulsifies with water, and rinses completely clean—taking makeup, SPF, and the day's buildup with it. Your skin after: clean, soft, and genuinely comfortable. No film, no residue, just a perfectly prepped canvas ready for the next step. It's the non-negotiable cleanse for skin that demands performance, not pampering.
We formulate every product to perform. If something isn't working, contact us within 15 days.

Your skin deserves to feel clean — not stripped, not coated. That's exactly what Breakwater was built for. A balm-to-milk cleansing melt that starts rich, melts on contact, dissolves everything on the surface — makeup, SPF, buildup, the day — then rinses completely clean. No film. No residue. No tight skin after. What's left behind is skin that feels soft, supple, and ready for what comes next.
Scoop a small amount — about the size of a hazelnut — and massage onto dry skin using slow circular motions. Let it melt in and work through everything on the surface. Take your time with this step. It's worth it.
Add water and watch it turn milky white. That's the emulsifier doing exactly what it's supposed to. Rinse thoroughly until your skin feels completely clean. Pat dry.
Follow immediately with Deep Current Barrier Serum. Morning or night, every time you cleanse.

Antioxidant protection for your skin and formula stability. Keeps every ingredient performing longer.
Will it leave my skin feeling greasy?
No. The balm-to-milk transformation is the key — when water hits it, it emulsifies and rinses completely clean. No film, no residue, no grease.
Can I use it to remove makeup and SPF?
Yes. Breakwater dissolves makeup, SPF, and daily buildup completely. Rinse thoroughly and nothing is left behind.
Is it suitable for sensitive skin?
Yes. No fragrance, no essential oils. The botanical base is anti-inflammatory and well-tolerated by reactive skin types.
Will it clog my pores?
No. Every ingredient is selected for its skin compatibility. Rinses completely clean — nothing sits on the surface to cause congestion.
Can I use it if I'm already using other treatments like retinol or prescription actives?
Yes. Breakwater is Step 01 — it cleanses and prepares your skin so everything that follows performs better, including any treatments you're already using.
For external use only. Avoid contact with eyes. If contact occurs rinse thoroughly with water. Discontinue use if irritation occurs. Keep out of reach of children.
