សាប៊ូលាងមុខ Ovalla Lengkuas Spa Foaming Cleanser

A balanced daily cleanser for skin that builds up oil, congestion, and pollution but reacts badly to harsh washing.

Why it works for tropical skin

Key ingredients

  • Centella Asiatica Extract — promotes healing and reduces inflammation
  • Lavandula Angustifolia (Lavender) Oil — helps to soothe and calm skin

  2. Apply gently onto face and rinse with water.

Follow with Essenskin to rebalance immediately.

Frequently asked

What does lengkuas do that other cleansers do not?

Lengkuas (galangal root) is a traditional South-East Asian botanical with mild astringent and anti-microbial properties — it helps lift pollution and oil from the surface without stripping the barrier. Paired with centella asiatica for soothing and ceramide NP for barrier reinforcement, the cleanse stays gentle even on reactive skin. This is the cleanser to reach for after a long Phnom Penh day of heat, traffic, and sunscreen layering.

Is one cleanse enough, or do I need to double cleanse?

For evening, double cleanse if you have worn sunscreen or makeup — use Heimish Cleansing Balm or any oil-based first cleanse to dissolve the SPF, then follow with Ovalla Lengkuas as the second cleanse to remove water-soluble grime. For morning, one cleanse is enough. After cleansing, immediately follow with Ovalla Fucocentella Energizing Essenskin Toner — leaving skin bare between cleanse and toner can disrupt barrier balance.

Will this cleanser dry out sensitive or dehydrated skin?

No — the formula is built around barrier respect, with ceramide NP and centella asiatica actively supporting the moisture barrier as you cleanse. Skin should feel clean and balanced after rinsing, not tight or squeaky. If you feel tightness after cleansing, you are likely using too much product or rinsing in water that is too hot. Use a small pea-sized amount, lather with cool-to-lukewarm water, and rinse gently.
