Skin Valet Kuwait is an authorized stockist of Dr.Althea. Every bottle is sourced through official distributors, never grey-market or refilled stock, so you receive the original vegan formula in its sealed foam pump.

What Dr.Althea Amino Acid Gentle Bubble Cleanser Does

One press gives a dense, ready-to-use foam, so there is no rubbing a gel between your hands and no risk of over-cleansing.

• 17 amino acids – a complex matched to the skin's natural balance, to nourish and help hold moisture after washing.
• Nano-sized foam – Dr.Althea's very fine bubbles (about 200nm) reach into pores to lift residue and leftover makeup.
• Gentle amino-acid cleansers – sodium cocoyl apple amino acids, potassium cocoyl glycinate and sodium cocoyl glutamate clean mildly.
• Hyaluronic acid and ceramide NP – help support the skin barrier so the face does not feel tight.
• Vegan certified – with no artificial colouring, added fragrance or parabens, according to the brand.

Amino Acid Foam vs Harsh Foaming Washes

Unlike a typical high-foaming face wash made with harsh sulfates, which can leave sensitive skin squeaky and tight, this cleanser relies on mild amino-acid surfactants and adds hydrators, so skin feels clean but soft. Because it comes out as foam, it is also quicker and gentler than lathering a gel yourself.

It works well as the second step of a double cleanse. In the evening, melt makeup and sunscreen first with the Dr.Althea Pure Grinding Cleansing Balm, then follow with this bubble cleanser. Finish with the Dr.Althea 345 Relief Cream to calm and moisturize.

Gentle Cleansing for Kuwait's Heat, Dust and AC

In Kuwait's summer, with temperatures above 45°C, sweat, sunscreen and fine dust build up on the skin quickly, and many people wash their face more than twice a day. Using a harsh cleanser that often can damage the barrier and lead to redness or more breakouts.

A low-irritation foam lets you cleanse after the gym or a day outdoors without stripping skin that is already dried out by air-conditioning. The amino acids and hyaluronic acid help it feel comfortable even on the drier winter days. Keep the bottle out of direct sun and away from very hot places, such as a parked car.

How to Use Dr.Althea Amino Acid Gentle Bubble Cleanser

1. Wet your face with lukewarm water.
2. Pump two to three times to dispense the foam into your palm.
3. Massage the foam gently over the face, avoiding the eyes.
4. Rinse thoroughly with lukewarm water.
5. Pat dry and follow with toner and moisturizer.

Use it morning and evening. In the morning it can be your only cleanser; at night use it after an oil or balm cleanser if you wear makeup or water-resistant SPF. Then continue with toner, serum and moisturizer, and sunscreen in the morning. Avoid the eye area, and patch test first if you are sensitive to citrus, as the formula contains orange peel oil.
