Vitamin C Lactic Cleanser
$35
What it is
Perfect for dry or mature skin, this brightening cleanser gently exfoliates dull, dead skin without stripping it of essential moisture. Clears the way for your serums and moisturizers to work more efficiently, helps fade the appearance of dark spots and leaves skin looking renewed and smoother.
How it works
Regular cellular turnover means healthier, younger looking skin and consistent exfoliation is key to achieving it. A mild cleansing base, consisting of sugar derived glycerin and coconut oil fatty acids, houses lactic acid to gently remove the dead layer of skin and allow newer, natural and healthier skin to emerge. Then, a powerful blend of vitamin C and sodium PCA helps nurture, brighten and calm the appearance of skin. Finally, it drenches the skin in hyaluronic acid and vegan phospholipids to help replenish natural moisture and combat drying.

I have been a devoted sanitas consumer for more than 10 years.
I get my professional treatments from Nancy.
She is always up on what is current and makes reliable reorganizations.
Vitamin C Lactic Cleanser is a product I use 1-2x per week. But ALWAYS after a heavier make up event. And it feels 'really clean' when I am done

I still have yet to be disappointed by any of these products. I had been regularly using the Glycolic Citrus cleanser and decided to try this one. I find it’s a bit more gentle. I use it every other day and don’t have any excess drying. Especially helpful to have an exfoliant during the summer months when my skin is dirtier from sunscreen and sweat.

A little frustrated that I can’t order product cause my address isn’t updated. When is this going to be done. Calling at 8. Bragged about how quick I could get Sanitas products in my clients hands

This is one of my favorite cleansers. It smooths and exfoliates well. It does tend to over dry my skin though when used daily so I try to alternate it with the lemon cream cleanser.
