Pause & Cleanse - Vitamin C Brightening Cleanser 100ml
PROPER CLEANSING IS OFTEN OVERLOOKED
Yet, the most boring step is often the most important one.
Without proper cleansing:
- your subsequent efforts and investment in expensive essences or serums, would yield weaker results.
- applying essences/ serums/ cream on skin that hasn’t been properly cleansed, will often result in acne.
- It might also result in the weakening of your natural skin barrier.
THERE ARE 4 KEY FACTORS TO PROPER CLEANSING:
- A Effective but gentle cleanser
- One that doesn’t strip your skin and leave it squeaky clean. Squeaky clean is not a good place for your skin. Ultra dry and tight skin means excessive sebum production later on, and this causes acne and/or early signs of wrinkles.
- A cleanser free from harmful, toxic or low-grade chemicals. Some chemicals might give you fast results, but are often the very ingredient that causes skin problems and imbalances.
- Slow down, be gentle and mindful in your technique.
- Avoid tugging down on your skin.
- Use small circular and upward motion when washing your face
- Dab dry and not rub it dry
- Temperature of the water
- Hot water isn’t good for skin. It is ultra-drying.
- Cool water is often the better choice.
PAUSE VIT-C BRIGHTENING CLEANSER (100ml):
- Cleanses dirt, bacteria and oil effectively

- Normalizes your pore lining and plays a key role in keeping sebum from building up and clogging your pores.
- Reduces rough and bumpy skin in the long-term

TEXTURE OF PAUSE VIT-C BRIGHTENING CLEANSER
Gel
Less foam, less dehydration
Cleanse effectively without leaving it squeaky-tight.
GOOD FOR WHICH SKIN TYPE:
Given the gentle and toxin free formula, this cleanser is made with all skin types in mind.
However, as with all products, no matter how good it is being touted, please do a patch test on yourself, to rule out any incompatibility.
*Patch test - use the product on a small area of your skin - usually behind your ears, just under your jaws.
HOW TO USE:
TWICE A DAY - GENERALLY
- Extra cleansing is sometimes necessary if your skin is producing more sebum than usual:
- For ladies, it could happen a few days in a month, due to hormonal changes
- Could happen due to changes in our routine, specific activities or diet.
AMOUNT TO USE:
Gel texture tends to produce much less foam. In addition, our products are free from SLS (the foam producing chemicals), and hence, some of us might find it awkward to wash our face without bubbles and foams.
Hence, our recommendation is approximately 4-5 squirts into your palms. (Be more generous if need be):
- Spread it all across your face
- Massage in small circular motion, covering all areas - about 15 secs
- Wet your fingers with water and massage 1 more round. Continue to wet with water along the way
- Then, rinse off with water.
- Pat dry
HERE IS HOW YOUR SKIN WILL FEEL AFTER WASHING:
- Fresh
- Soft
- Not tight

What is PAUSE?
Is our range of clean skincare products.
In our pursuit for beauty, we often get distracted by all the new super ingredients, benefits, social media-driven beauty standards etc.
While all that can be interesting, real beauty comes with acceptance. To make the decision that we are worthy of our own care first, and then, through rituals like skincare, tell ourselves that story every single day.
Touching our skin as we pamper it with serum.
Washing it gently.
Being conscious about what kind of product we want to feed our skin
When we invest that kind of gentle and mindful care into our skin, body, mind and soul…
We will bloom.
And that to us, is aging gracefully.
We approach our products with the same philosophy.
Clean, non toxic products
Simple and straightforward with a sense of ease
Good quality ingredients
No unnecessary fillers

Why are there chemical sounding names in your ingredient list?
Because all natural foods have chemical names. It is the system for naming and labeling substances.
All plants and fruits have chemical sounding components within it.
For Instance, the fruit - Banana contains:
Isoamyl acetate (C7H1402) - responsible for the banana flavor and smell
Pectin (C6H10O7) - when banana ripens, the pectin levels increase, which is why they soften over time and change color
All natural.
Hence in our definition, you will not see us saying we are “chemical-free”. Because that isn’t possible, when even fruits have chemical-sounding names.
What is clean, is the removal of:
Ingredients that have toxic effects
Low grade quality ingredients that creates more skin issues in the long run
Unnecessary fillers, that doesn’t really benefit the skin
Harsh substitutes for better margins.
Our ingredients list is kept short and simple.
We also have an ingredient glossary that you can check out here, where information about the ingredients we used are stated.
This is the first time I am using your product, how do I start?
Always start with a patch test. That would be a good way to test if the product is suitable for your skin. You can do so by applying a small amount behind your ears, or the inside of your elbow for at least 24 hours, for any skin reactions
Is your product suitable for men as well?
Absolutely. There isn’t really a men’s product VS women’s product to start with. A good skin care product is good, and has no gender bias.
Our products are made with skin in mind - be it men or women.
All can benefit from non-toxic and good quality ingredients.
