Hi! Christina here! I'm the Founder and Formulator for Authentic Ego.

On this page, you’ll find detailed usage instructions, along with a few tips and tricks to get the most out of your daily cleansing ritual. 

Formula

I formulated Mellow Jelly to provide a better cleansing experience for acne-prone, sensitive and atopic skin. It's pH neutral, foam-free and will leave your skin barrier happy ,and calm and hydrated after cleansing. 

Application Guide

Mellow Jelly is designed to be a second cleanse. If you wear makeup, SPF, you'll want to remove it first with a cleansing water or oil cleanser. We're working on a cleansing oil as we speak!

If you don't have any makeup or SPF on there's no need to double cleanse and you can just use Mellow Jelly on its own.

Since Mellow Jelly doesn't foam you'll want to use 1-2 pumps and massage onto damp skin for a full minute before rinsing with lukewarm water. This helps the micellar cleansers in Mellow Jelly trap dirt, sebum and pollution without disrupting your skin barrier. 

Why Cleanse Twice a Day?

You may be used to cleansing once a day, but cleansing 2x daily has been shown to have positive benefits in acne-prone and clog-prone skin. Why? The longer sebum (your skin's natural oils) are on your face, the higher likelhood they have of going through a process called lipid peroxidation. This process is a direct contributor to inflammation and breakouts.

Cleansing twice daily helps to wash away the oxidized sebum on your skin and with Mellow Jelly you can do it without irritation, flare-ups or breakouts!
