Urban Veda Soothing Sandalwood Face Wash, Ayurvedic Daily Facial Cleanser for Delicate, Normal to Dry Skin 150ml

What Is It

Waking up to facial tightness, dry zones, or an uncomfortable lack of suppleness means your everyday cleanser is too harsh. Many standard foaming gels rely on aggressive sulfates that strip away your skin's vital moisture barrier, leaving your complexion looking dull, dehydrated, and exposed to urban environmental stressors.

The Urban Veda Soothing Sandalwood Face Wash is a premium, beautifully balanced face wash for delicate skin formulated to thoroughly purify without triggering the dryness associated with harsh soapy cleansers. Forged with precious Sandalwood oil, skin-reinforcing Arjuna bark extract, and a comforting vegetable glycerin base, this daily non-stripping face wash lifts away daily impurities and excess oil while preserving your skin's natural moisture seal. Crafted as a smooth, conditioning botanical gel cleanser, it creates a velvety lather that leaves normal to dry skin types feeling soft, conditioned, and thoroughly revived.

Key Benefits

Cleanses Gently Without Stripping – Utilising mild, plant-derived cleansers rather than harsh detergents, this gentle foaming face wash washes away dirt, grime, and makeup while ensuring your delicate skin care boundaries and natural lipid barriers are left perfectly intact.

Preserves and Conditions Delicate Complexions – Formulated specifically as a high-performing face wash for normal to dry skin, it completely sidesteps the tight, squeaky-clean feeling left by generic cleansers, making it a truly good body oil companion for multi-layered facial hydration routines.

Supports Skin Fortification – Infused with clinically targeted Arjuna bark extract, this unique arjuna bark face wash protects your skin matrix right from the cleansing step, helping to soothe surface imperfections and encourage a plump, supple texture.

Exquisite Aromatherapy Spa Blend – Features a complex, luxury spa parfum expertly blended with a pure essential oil bouquet of Lavender, Rose Geranium, Patchouli, and Ylang Ylang. The grounding, premium scent turns your daily washing into an aromatic sensory escape that reduces stress and rebalances a heat-prone Pitta dosha.

Preps for Maximum Absorption – Serving as the crucial foundation for your morning and evening skincare. Washing your face with this face wash UK formula primes the skin texture perfectly, allowing your subsequent toning serums, facial creams, or facial tools to penetrate efficiently and maximise their daily performance.
