FAQs
How often should I use the EradiKate Daily Foaming Cleanser Mini?
For best results, use the cleanser twice daily, once in the morning and once in the evening, as part of your regular skincare routine.
Is this cleanser suitable for sensitive skin?
The cleanser is formulated for blemish-prone skin and designed not to over-dry. However, if you have particularly sensitive skin, it's always recommended to perform a patch test on a small area before full facial application.
What is the primary active ingredient in this cleanser?
The primary active ingredient is 3% Sulfur, known for its efficacy in combating blemishes, blackheads, and controlling oil.
Can I use this cleanser to remove makeup?
While it cleanses impurities, its primary function is blemish control. For heavy makeup removal, it's best to use a dedicated makeup remover or an oil cleanser first, followed by the EradiKate cleanser for a thorough clean.
What is the size of the 'Mini' product?
This product is a mini size, containing 30ml (1 fl oz) of cleanser. It's ideal for travel or for testing the product.
How long will the 30ml mini cleanser last with daily use?
The duration depends on individual usage, but with twice-daily application of a pea-sized amount, the 30ml mini typically lasts approximately 2-4 weeks.
Does this product have a strong scent?
Due to the presence of sulfur, there can be a mild, characteristic scent. It is generally not overpowering and dissipates quickly after rinsing.
Troubleshooting
Skin feels slightly dry or tight after use.
While formulated not to over-dry, individual skin reactions vary. Reduce usage frequency to once daily, or ensure you follow immediately with a hydrating toner and moisturizer suitable for blemish-prone skin.
No noticeable improvement in blemishes after several weeks.
Ensure consistent daily use (morning and evening). Blemish treatments often require patience. Evaluate your entire skincare routine for other potential irritants or insufficient active ingredients. Consult a dermatologist if concerns persist.
Redness or irritation occurs after using the cleanser.
Discontinue use immediately. Although designed to be gentle, active ingredients can sometimes cause sensitivity. Perform a patch test on a small area of skin before reintroducing, or consult a dermatologist for advice.
