We’re still tracking retailers for this one. In the meantime:
Babor's CleanFormance Clay Multi-Cleanser is a 2-in-1 cleanser and mask that reflects German skincare's obsession with efficiency — wash your face or leave it on for five minutes as a treatment. Either way works. Kaolin clay is the pore-clearing hero: it absorbs excess sebum without stripping moisture, which is why dermatologists prefer it over bentonite for daily use. The probiotic angle is where this gets interesting: lactococcus ferment lysate (the same postbiotic that powers some of the most expensive probiotic serums) conditions the skin microbiome while you cleanse, and hydrolyzed yeast protein provides amino acid support for barrier repair. Grape seed oil delivers antioxidant polyphenols, sunflower seed oil provides linoleic acid for non-comedogenic moisture, and red maple bark extract offers antimicrobial support. The surfactant system is entirely glucoside-based (decyl glucoside + coco-glucoside) — among the gentlest available. Carnauba wax gives the clay paste its thick, satisfying texture. At ~€35, it's premium for a cleanser but defensible when you factor in the mask dual-use.
