Finally!

I have suffered from PD intermittently over the last few years to varying degrees and have tried so many different things. Some seem to work for a little bit but ultimately the fix never seems to last. Typically weather change will bring this on for me and come summer time I don’t want to be wearing much on my face so it is difficult when I flare during this time. Amperna has helped so much, just after a week of use I noticed a difference in my skin and since then I have had minimal to no flares. Photos on top are before and photos to the bottom are after just one week of using the Amperna cleanser as well as the resurfacing lotion. I plan to buy more products to add to my stock!

This cleanser has been a life changer for me

This cleanser has been a life changer for me. With super sensitive acne prone skin I felt like I was constantly changing products my whole life trying to find one consistent. This has been the only cleanser I’ve used now in 3-4 years, and could not recommend it more highly.

Genuinely amazing!!!

Genuinely amazing. I use this facewash 2x a day (lightly in the mornings, and 2x at night -- once to wash my makeup off and once with a tiny bit to really make sure my skin is clean). It's super gentle and my skin is glowing because of it!
I struggle with hormonal acne, and while this product isn't the only thing that has helped clear my skin, I do believe that it being so gentle but also cleansing is a contributing factor to my skin clearing up! Thank you for creating an amazing product that makes me look forward to washing my face every day :) Wish I had a good photo of before I starting using this product (and implementing a ton of other changes, like diet, exercise, etc.) and now! My skin looks and feels 10,000x better :)

Absolutely LOVE!

I absolutely love this cleanser. It is my go to cleanser and the only one that doesn't make me break out or give me perioral dermatitis. I found this while I was struggling with perioral dermatitis after after my daughter and its been the only cleanser I've used since. No over powering smell, gentle and leaves skin feeling clean and soft!

Wonderful

Started using due to having PD. Felt so refreshing and did not irritate my skin at all. Love how it is cooling and calming.

S

So gentle, non irritating, calming & healing.

I have used the cleanser for my perioral dermatitis but also when I’ve not had a flare up just on my normal skin. It works amazingly for perioral dermatitis and I find that it calms the dermatitis ands reduces the amount of extra bumps I get. I also find it calms my acne. I don’t have severe acne but get pimples on my face from sweating or just hormones. My skin is very sensitive and I break out easily. I would highly recommend trialling this cleanser if you’re not sure. It doesn’t dry my skin out and feels so calm and healing when using it.

This cleanser is very gentle to your skin. Perfect for sensitive skin and skin that has already too many problems to use something more harsh.

I have eczema and acne, I’ve tried many cleansers in the past that havent worked for me, so i bought this one in the travel size to test it out since nothing has worked so far for my skin, and i love it. It does not irritate my skin at all, no redness after washing my face and i pair it with the the soothing serum and moisturiser and its been helping so far!

Brooke (Kitchener, CA)

Let me start off by saying I really really wanted to love Amperna. I follow Sisley the acne nutritionist on instagram and she had been raving about these products. Being from Canada, it was an expensive import fee but I felt it was worth it, given the reviews.

I have been using the moisturizer, cleanser and probiotic serum for over a month now and my face has gradually been worsening, to now the worst its been in a long time. I've always struggled with acne and have very sensitive skin but I feel like I've taken 20 steps back with the cystic acne I have acquired. For a company that is supposed to be safe for sensitive skin, my skin is quite honestly screaming.

The best!

I've struggled with hormonal acne for years and done all the natural things with diet, gut health, etc. My acne specialist recommended amperna and it's my favorite. This cleanser is the only thing that has helped my skin and keeps it clear!

Absolutely amazing

I promise this brand is not a gimmick, after years of severe acne and eczema I was on the verge of starting medication when I found this brand. My skin has never looked better.

Light and fresh

This cleanser is really light and leaves my skin fresh. It’s not too harsh and doesn’t cause any redness like I’ve had other cleaners do.

Gentle Cleanser For The Win!

This cleanser is amazing - it’s gentle and hydrating yet gets everything clean, and I don’t have to worry about it stripping my skin and leaving it feeling dry. My skin feels nourished after using this.

Lovely gentle cleanser.

Using this now I’m over my last big flare up and it’s a lovely, soothing cleanser. Perfect to use alongside the rescue serum

Helped my skin

I was recommended this product from a skin clinic. The barrier on my face was broken, stripped, red, and stinging. I started using Amperna and haven’t looked back ! Skin is repaired and glowing.

Gentle to my PD skin

This cleanser is very gentle for my PD. Together with the Soothing Duo was the perfect choice to calm the skin irritation. I stopped using the steroid cream and it took almost a month to see results, but I am very happy! Results take time and patience. Don't give up on using this!!

Stephanie

I’m not keen on the product, didn’t feel very soothing or moisturising and didn’t notice any improvement to my peri oral dermatitis or rosacea. Expensive. Won’t buy again.

Hi Stephanie,

Thanks for your order of the Ultra Gentle Soothing Cleanser 250ml.
We're sorry to hear that you haven't enjoyed it.

As you may be aware helping skin concerns does take time and true rosacea is something you need to manage ongoing.

For flared skin we do recommend our Soothing Duo, SOS Spray & flare safe SPF ONLY - you would avoid all cleansers, other skincare and makeup.
Therefore you wouldn't use the Ultra Gentle Soothing Cleanser Travel Size and the Ultra Gentle Soothing Cleanser 250ml that you purchased from us whilst your skin is flared.

We also recommend looking into why you have perioral dermatitis.
And we also recommend avoiding all rosacea exacerbators.

We'll send this reply to your email too however feel free to email us or DM us.

Kiri's Story

Before creating AMPERNA®, I lived with reactive skin. It was frustrating and often isolating, as I struggled to find products that didn’t make things worse.

That experience inspired me to develop a range that is gentle, simple, and supportive for skin, so others searching for calmer, more comfortable routines would have options they could turn to.

AMPERNA® is the result of that journey. Every product is guided by the same philosophy: kind formulations, inspired by real skin stories.
