Gentle doesn't mean it's not working
From squeaky-clean skin to harsh actives, we're rethinking the rules of cleansing.
-
1. Tight Skin = Clean Skin
THEORY:
If your skin feels tight after cleansing, it's clean.
REALITY:
Clean skin shouldn't feel stripped. Chamomile Jelly Cleanser leaves skin soft, comfortable, and never tight or dry.
-
2. Gentle Cleansers Don't Work
THEORY:
Gentle cleansers can't fully remove makeup and SPF.
REALITY:
Gentle doesn't mean ineffective. Chamomile Jelly Cleanser is clinically tested to remove makeup and SPF in just one cleanse.
-
3. Acne-Prone Skin Needs Active Cleansers
THEORY:
Cleansers for acne-prone skin need acne-fighting actives.
REALITY:
Your cleanser doesn't have to treat your acne. Leave that to your treatments and keep cleansing gentle.
THE STORY BEHIND BANU
15 years of breakouts. Countless products. One mission to change how we care for acne-prone skin. Hear from our founder on why she created banu.
How to use
Cleanse daily, no matter what.
Cleanse
Massage a nickel-size amount into damp skin morning & night. Rinse with lukewarm water.
Treat
Apply any treatments like Blemish Control & Exfoliating Serum or Dark Spot Milky Serum.
Hydrate
Apply 2-3 pumps of Deep Drench Moisturizer all over the face and neck in an upwards motion. Be sure to follow with an acne-safe SPF in the morning.
Spot Treatment
Apply a thick layer of 10% Sulfur Spot Treatment directly on your spot or breakout area.
Don’t do this:
Don't apply without emulsifying the jelly. Make sure the jelly texture turns into a soft pillowy foam once water is added.
REAL SKIN. REAL RESULTS.

FAQs
How often should I use Chamomile Jelly Cleanser?
Morning and night! If your skin feels especially dry or irritated, consider skipping your morning cleanse and rinsing with lukewarm water instead.
Can I use it around my eyes?
Yes! Chamomile Jelly Cleanser is ophthalmologist-tested and designed to gently cleanse the eye area. Avoid direct contact with your eyes.
Why doesn't it contain salicylic acid or benzoyl peroxide?
Because your cleanser doesn't need to treat your acne. We believe in keeping cleansing gentle and leaving the acne-fighting actives to your leave-on treatments, where they have more time to work.
Does it actually remove makeup and SPF?
Absolutely. In a consumer study, 97% agreed Chamomile Jelly Cleanser effectively removed daily makeup and SPF, all in one cleanse.
Can I use it during pregnancy?
Chamomile Jelly Cleanser is formulated without retinoids or benzoyl peroxide. If you're pregnant or breastfeeding, we recommend checking with your healthcare provider before introducing new skincare products.
Will it help with breakouts or uneven texture?
Think of cleansing as the first step in your acne-care routine. Chamomile Jelly Cleanser removes makeup, SPF, and buildup without stripping your skin. For breakouts or uneven texture, pair it with our Blemish Control & Exfoliating Serum or 10% Sulfur Spot Treatment.
How is this different from a traditional foaming cleanser?
You get the best of both worlds: a jelly texture that transforms into a soft, pillowy foam, effectively removing makeup and SPF without leaving skin feeling tight or stripped.
Can I use it if I have oily skin?
Absolutely! It removes excess oil, makeup, and SPF without over-stripping your skin. It's designed for acne-prone skin, including oily skin types.
