A Gentle Gel-to-Foam Cleanser with Centella, Niacinamide & Vitamin C for Pigmentation-Prone Skin
A gel-to-foam cleanser designed to remove daily impurities while supporting dull, uneven-looking and pigmentation-prone skin without turning the cleansing step into an aggressive treatment.
The formula combines gentle cleansing agents with Centella asiatica, madecassoside, niacinamide, 3-O-ethyl ascorbic acid and fruit extracts, alongside glycerin, panthenol and other humectants.
Within the Glass Ritual Pigmentation Collection, its primary job remains cleansing. The brightening and soothing ingredients provide supportive care rather than replacing a leave-on pigmentation treatment.
Why We Chose It
We chose the SKIN1004 Tone Brightening Cleansing Gel Foam because pigmentation routines still need to begin with a cleanser that respects the skin.
It provides a useful balance: effective cleansing combined with Centella and madecassoside for soothing support, humectants for hydration, and complementary tone-supporting ingredients.
Most importantly, we do not expect a rinse-off cleanser to do the work of a pigmentation serum. Its role is to create a clean, comfortable foundation so that the leave-on treatments that follow can perform their intended jobs.
Benefits

Who It's For
Consider this cleanser if you are concerned about:
- Dark spots or post-blemish marks but still need a straightforward daily cleanser
- Uneven-looking skin tone
- Dullness
- Maintaining hydration while cleansing
- Pigmentation alongside sensitivity or skin-comfort concerns
- Building a complete pigmentation ritual without using aggressive treatments at every step
It can also suit practitioners who simply want a gentle cleanser even if pigmentation is not their only concern.
How to Use
Wet your face and hands with lukewarm water. Dispense an appropriate amount into wet palms and work into a foam. Gently massage over the face without scrubbing. Rinse thoroughly with lukewarm water and continue with your toner, treatment and moisturiser.
Ritual Position
Cleanse → Tone → Treat → Moisturise
This product belongs at the cleansing stage of your Glass Ritual. If you wear heavier makeup or water-resistant products, it may be used as the second step of a double-cleansing routine after an appropriate first cleanser.
Glass Ritual Pairing
The Tone Brightening range includes toner, ampoule, mask and cream options, but you do not need the complete range.
A cleanser has brief contact with the skin before being rinsed away. For that reason, Glass Ritual places greater treatment importance on the leave-on steps that follow. This cleanser can therefore be paired with whichever pigmentation treatment best matches your needs—whether that is tranexamic acid, alpha-arbutin, niacinamide, vitamin C or another appropriate pathway.
Glass Ritual Principle: Cleanse to prepare the skin. Do not expect your cleanser to carry the entire treatment plan.

About MadeWhite™
SKIN1004 describes MadeWhite™ as a patented brightening ingredient designed to provide brightening benefits while minimising irritation. Glass Ritual treats this as the manufacturer’s description of its proprietary ingredient technology.
Because this is a rinse-off cleanser, we position its brightening ingredients as supportive components of the routine, rather than suggesting that cleansing alone will meaningfully correct established pigmentation.
