    How to Use

    Splash. Shake. Cleanse.

    Dermatologist Recommended

    “For years, people have struggled to clean their skin without overdoing it, and I often remind my patients that ‘squeaky clean’ is a better goal for dishes than faces—overcleansing can disrupt the skin barrier and fuel inflammation. We’re ready for a new era of cleansing that treats the barrier with the respect it deserves. True Botanicals’ Spirulina Cleansing Powder brings that approach to daily care, helping remove buildup, preserve essential moisture, and gently refine texture so skin feels clean, balanced, and comfortable.”

    - Dr. Daniel Butler, MD, Board-Certified Dermatologist

    FAQs

    Is Spirulina Cleansing Powder suitable for sensitive skin?

    Yes. It's formulated without added fragrance or essential oils, and includes colloidal oatmeal to help calm and soothe skin as it cleanses. Designed to support sensitive, reactive, and dry complexions.

    What skin concern is Spirulina Cleansing Powder designed for?

    It’s designed to reconcile two things we’ve long considered at odds: skin that feels soft and clean at the same time. It's formulated to cleanse while helping support skin's barrier, and to help leave skin hydrated during and after rinse-off.

    What’s the texture and finish like?

    A weightless, fine-light blue powder that activates into a rich lather on contact with water. Skin is left feeling soft and clean, never tight.

    How is a waterless formula more sustainable than a liquid cleanser?

    Removing water means a lighter package to ship, less packaging waste, and no risk of spills in transit. It also means that more of what's in the bottle is actually active ingredients rather than water taking up space.

    What are the main ingredients and what does each one do?

    Spirulina Maxima helps support the skin barrier while improving hydration, radiance, and the appearance of firmness over time, even in a rinse-off cleanser. PCA, a natural component of the skin's own moisturizing factor, helps replenish hydration during cleansing. Colloidal Oat helps calm, soften, and support the skin barrier for a comfortable, never-stripped cleanse.

    Is the powder texture exfoliating and does it feel gritty?

    No. Spirulina Cleansing Powder is not a physical exfoliant. The ultra-fine powder transforms into a rich, silky lather when activated with water. Colloidal Oat helps soothe and soften skin, supporting a comfortable, Barrier First cleanse without scrubbing or buffing.

    Is Spirulina Cleansing Powder fragrance-free / vegan / cruelty-free?

    Yes, Spirulina Cleansing Powder is vegan and cruelty-free. It's formulated without added fragrance or essential oils. Its subtle, natural scent is derived solely from gentle botanical ingredients.

    Can I use Spirulina Cleansing Powder if I’m pregnant or breastfeeding?

    Yes! Our Spirulina Cleansing Powder is MADE SAFE® Pregnancy Safe Certified. That means it's free from over 15,000+ known toxins and tested against ingredients suspected of harming pregnant individuals. It's also earned the Sorette Seal of Approval, meaning it's been vetted against Sorette's No-Go List™ for reproductive, developmental, and endocrine toxicity, with full ingredient transparency.

    As always, we recommend consulting your doctor before introducing any new skincare during pregnancy or breastfeeding.

    Where does Spirulina Cleansing Powder fit in my skincare routine?

    It's the first step of any routine, morning and night. Just splash, shake, and cleanse to prep your skin for whatever comes next (serum, moisturizer, SPF, etc.)

    Can I use Spirulina Cleansing Powder morning and night?

    Yes, it's formulated for daily use, morning and night.

    How much Spirulina Cleansing Powder should I use?

    Start with 2–3 shakes in wet hands, the powder activates into a rich, silky lather. Adjust the amount to create your ideal cleanse.

    How quickly will I see results?

    Our Spirulina Cleansing Powder is clinically proven to boost skin hydration immediately after use.

    How long does one bottle last?

    About 2 months with daily use, depending on the amount used per application.
