cleanse & nourish duo

inbalance works well as a first step after cleansing. Simply spritz it and pat it onto your skin. Repeat if necessary. Follow it up with your favorite serums and moisturisers. It doesn’t interfere with the layering of other products.

You may also spritz inbalance throughout the day as and when needed for a quick skin hydration refresh.

While inbalance is nourishing enough to act as a quick “in-between” step, it’s not meant to replace your entire routine.

Think of it as your skin’s standby guard, it offers a balanced dose of hydration, anti-inflammatory, and antioxidant protection until you’re ready for a full skincare routine, perfect for those lazy mornings or midday refreshes.

Yes, inbalance can be safely used during pregnancy and breastfeeding. All ingredients used in inbalance are under clinically recommended doses and therefore, safe and effective on the skin.

inbalance does not have any added fragrance. However, the formula has a light, natural botanical scent from its plant-based ingredients.

inbalance can safely and suitably be combined with all active ingredients. It’s, in fact, recommended to use inbalance with other active ingredients to proactively protect your skin barrier against damage or irritation as it is fortified with soothing and calming ingredients. The gentle formula won’t interfere with the effectiveness of other products, making it a great addition to your existing skincare routine.

However, if you have a damaged skin barrier, we recommend using inbalance in addition to a barrier-building moisturiser like IMD to repair your skin barrier before including actives in your routine again.

While hypochlorous acid offers antimicrobial properties, it often depletes vital antioxidants that are essential for your skin health, and therefore gets super tricky to layer it with any other serums or moisturisers in your routine. It can also be a little drying for some skin types.In contrast, inbalance contains the star Honokiol ingredient which we carefully selected because it combines powerful anti-bacterial properties and also extends antioxidant protection on the skin. Hinoki Water and Pyrus Malus Extract also provide similar antibacterial support in a gentler, hydrating formula.However, do keep in mind that in direct comparison to hypochlorous acid, inbalance is only moderately geared towards anti-bacterial protection, but that’s also what makes it gentle enough for everyday use.

Inflammaging is a term that combines "inflammation" and "aging" to describe a chronic, low-grade inflammation that occurs on the skin and can accelerate visible signs of aging.

When left unchecked, inflammaging leads to wrinkles, loss of elasticity, and uneven skin tone. It is often triggered by environmental stressors, UV exposure, pollution, and internal factors like stress and an unhealthy lifestyle. Over time, inflammaging weakens the skin’s natural defenses and can impair its ability to repair itself, making it more susceptible to environmental damage and resulting in visible signs of aging.

Controlling inflammaging is key to preserving youthful, healthy skin.

inbalance is formulated with potent phyto bio-actives, powerful antioxidants, and anti-inflammatory ingredients that target inflammation at a cellular level.

These ingredients calm redness and irritation while protecting your skin from oxidative stress caused by environmental triggers. By continuously minimizing inflammation, inbalance helps your skin stay balanced, resilient, and visibly younger over time. Formulated in a nourishing, milky spritz, these ingredients can help slow down or prevent the process, keeping skin firmer, more resilient, and radiant for longer.

Studies show that managing low-grade inflammation through skincare can help preserve a healthier, more youthful complexion.

Inflammaging accelerates the aging of the skin tissue by degrading elastin and collagen. Ongoing inflammation weakens skin resilience, making it more vulnerable to external stressors and reducing its ability to repair. Over time, inflammaging can lead to premature wrinkles, dullness, loss of firmness, and an overall increase in skin sensitivity. Long-term, these signs accumulate, causing the skin to look less youthful and vibrant.

Inflammaging can show up as

1. Fine Lines and Wrinkles: Inflammaging accelerates the breakdown of collagen and elastin, the proteins responsible for skin’s firmness and elasticity. This results in the early formation of fine lines and deeper wrinkles.

2. Loss of Elasticity and Sagging: The gradual weakening of collagen and elastin also leads to skin sagging and a loss of resilience. The skin may start to appear thinner or less supple.

3. Dryness and Dehydration: Low-grade inflammation compromises the skin’s moisture barrier, making it harder for the skin to retain hydration. This can lead to chronic dryness or dehydration, leaving the skin feeling tight, rough, or flaky.

4. Dullness: Persistent inflammation reduces the skin’s ability to regenerate new, healthy cells. This can result in a dull, tired-looking complexion.

5. Uneven Skin Tone and Hyperpigmentation: Inflammaging can cause melanocytes (pigment-producing cells) to become overactive, leading to uneven skin tone, dark spots, or patches of hyperpigmentation.

6. Redness and Sensitivity: Low-grade inflammation can make the skin more reactive, resulting in persistent redness, irritation, or heightened sensitivity.

Oil cleansing is rooted in the science-backed principle of “like dissolves like.” Unlike traditional foaming cleansers that rely solely on surfactants, oil-based cleansers are lipophilic, meaning they are naturally attracted to other oils. When you massage an oil cleanser into your skin, it binds to sebum, makeup, sunscreen and other oil-based impurities that build up on your skin throughout the day.As the oil lifts these impurities from the skin’s surface and deeper layers, it emulsifies upon contact with water. This turns it into a light milky texture that rinses off easily without the need for harsh scrubbing. The result is a thorough yet gentle cleanse that respects your skin’s natural barrier and leaves it feeling soft, hydrated and comfortable.

Oil cleansing is an effective method for removing makeup because it can dissolve even stubborn, waterproof formulas that are difficult to remove with traditional cleansers. Makeup products are oil-based formulas, and these can be difficult to remove with water-based cleansers. When an oil cleanser is applied to the skin, it works to loosen and dissolve the makeup, allowing it to easily lift away from the skin's surface.

The size of your pores is determined by genetics, and unfortunately, no product can physically shrink them. However, what you often perceive as “large pores” is typically the result of buildup within them. When sebum, dead skin cells, makeup, and pollutants accumulate, they oxidise and darken over time. This not only stretches the pore walls but also makes them more visible.The key to improving their appearance lies in regular, thorough cleansing. Oil-based cleansers are particularly effective because oils are lipophilic; they bind to other oils, including excess sebum and oil-soluble debris trapped in the pores. When massaged into dry skin, oil cleansers dissolve this buildup, which can then be emulsified and rinsed off with water.Consistent oil cleansing helps keep pores clear, prevents blockages, and reduces their visible size by allowing them to return to their unstretched state. It does not shrink the pores themselves, but it significantly improves how they look and feel.

Yes, Good Grease is an excellent choice for sensitive skin. While many traditional foaming cleansers can be harsh and drying, oil cleansers offer a gentler alternative that effectively cleans without compromising the skin barrier.Good Grease is formulated with soothing ingredients such as Mango Seed Butter and Radish Root Ferment Filtrate, which help calm inflammation, reduce redness, and support overall skin comfort.

Absolutely. While it may feel counterintuitive to use an oil cleanser on oily skin, it can actually help balance your skin’s natural oil production. Traditional foaming cleansers often strip the skin of essential lipids, prompting it to overproduce sebum in response. Good Grease works differently. Its oil-based formula gently dissolves excess sebum, sunscreen, and pore-clogging impurities without disrupting the skin’s moisture barrier.It also contains Radish Root Ferment Filtrate, a natural antimicrobial that helps curb the growth of acne-causing bacteria on the skin. Although Good Grease is designed to rinse off clean without leaving behind an oily residue, you can follow it with a second cleanser if desired. For most skin types, a single cleanse with Good Grease is more than enough.

Yes, Good Grease is especially well-suited for dry or sensitive skin. Unlike traditional foaming cleansers that can strip the skin of its natural oils and leave it feeling tight or irritated, oil cleansers work in harmony with your skin’s barrier.Good Grease not only lifts away dirt, makeup and impurities but also delivers moisture and comfort while you cleanse. It is enriched with Mango Seed Butter, a deeply nourishing ingredient known for its moisturising and anti-inflammatory properties. It helps calm irritation and supports the repair of dry, itchy skin.If your skin tends to be very dry, we recommend skipping a second cleanse and allowing Good Grease to do the heavy lifting on its own.

Absolutely! People with all skin types including oily skin may be experiencing dehydration. In the case of oily skin, dehydration can lead to an overproduction of oil as the skin tries to compensate for the lack of hydration. Upon using inbalance, your skin will get lightweight hydration without feeling heavy or greasy, and eventually help your skin balance it’s natural oil production.
