PURITO Defence Barrier pH Cleanser is a foam-like face cleanser. The product claims to have a formula with a pH level of 5.5, that supposedly must protect even the most sensitive of skins against dryness and irritation. Just to remind you, the comfortable pH levels for a healthy skin is between 4.7 and 5.7. Products like this do not damage the healthy skin barrier. Unfortunately, there are not so many cleansers with low pH levels out there. Because, usually, regular cleansers have acidic pH levels, which varies between 8.5 and 10. You should try the cleanser products with low pH levels if you have:
- Sensitive skin
- Dermatitis
- Eczema (atopic dermatitis)
- Couperose (skin with this condition refers to a sensitive one, but Centella Asiatica, as a part of ingredients of the cleanser, helps to ease the symptoms)
- Rosacea
- Acne/ any other skin rashes

My comments: I have a very forgiving skin, so I do not care much about pH levels of my cleansers. But for many owners of sensitive and problematic skin, it is very important to know that there is a reliable tool on a market. Due to the of the generosity of some online sellers, I have a lot of PURITO brand testers. Usually I take them with me to all my trips, so that I will have first couples of days pimples-free (the break out begins only on day 3 ?). The cleanser is transparent, with a mild herbal scent and makes a nice foam. There is no need for additional sponges or bottles if you want to use it.
P.S Testers are the greatest of inventions. You can order them to try the product yourself, before investing in a full-size bottle. And it might be that this cleanser will fit you, and you could wash the face with water, and not with the “waterless washing” method.
