Rhode Skin Pineapple Refresh PGA Daily Cleanser
Pineapple Refresh is Rhode Skin’s signature balm-to-lather cleanser — the perfect first step in any skincare routine. The formula, enriched with Polyglutamic Acid (PGA), gentle cleansing agents, and natural pineapple extract, effectively removes SPF, makeup, impurities, and excess sebum without compromising the skin's delicate hydrolipidic barrier. The result? Skin that is clean, soft, supple, and truly hydrated—even after rinsing.
What makes it special
Unlike traditional gel cleansers that leave skin dry and tight, Pineapple Refresh uses a unique balm-to-lather texture — a silky, golden balm that transforms into a rich, light foam upon contact with water. Gentle surfactants ensure thorough yet non-aggressive cleansing, while a blend of effective humectants helps maintain—and even improve—skin hydration throughout the cleansing process.
Clinically proven immediate improvement in hydration levels after rinsing, making the product ideal for all skin types, including sensitive and acne-prone.
Key Ingredients
• Polyglutamic Acid (PGA) — an ultra-hydrating humectant that intensely smooths the skin and helps lock in moisture; surpasses standard hyaluronic acid in its water-binding capacity
• Ananas Sativus (Pineapple) Fruit Extract — a gentle, natural enzymatic exfoliant that promotes a smoother, more even skin texture without mechanical abrasion
• Hydroxypropyltrimonium Hyaluronate — a new-generation low-molecular-weight hyaluronic acid that adheres to the skin's surface, providing long-lasting hydration even after rinsing
• Saccharide Isomerate — a skin-identical sugar complex that delivers long-lasting hydration and leaves skin noticeably softer
• Glycerin — a classic humectant that attracts and retains moisture, preventing dryness
The formula also contains: Tocopherol (Vitamin E), Camellia Oleifera Leaf Extract, Hippophae Rhamnoides Fruit Oil, and Lactobacillus Ferment — for additional antioxidant and balancing support.
