AB LAB Cleansers

AB LAB cleansers: Australian-made, vegan face wash

AB LAB's cleanser range is built around clean, active ingredients, formulated in Australia and made without sulphates, parabens, or animal-derived ingredients. Both cleansers work well as a first or second step in a double cleanse, or on their own if that's more your routine. As with the rest of the AB LAB range, the focus is on straightforward, effective formulas rather than a long list of extras.

Choosing between the two AB LAB cleansers

The two formulas suit different needs. If you wear makeup or SPF daily and want something to melt it away first, the balm-to-oil format is the better starting point. If your skin leans dry or easily irritated, the creamier, more conditioning option is worth trying instead, either as a standalone wash or as the second step after an oil-based cleanser.

AB LAB Dewy-C Enzymatic Cleansing Balm

The AB LAB Dewy-C Enzymatic Cleansing Balm is designed as the first step in a double cleanse, melting away makeup, sunscreen, and daily grime. It combines vitamin C, lactic acid, and fruit enzymes with oil-derived cleansing agents, aimed at rinsing away impurities while brightening skin tone and texture without stripping moisture. It's meant to be massaged over dry skin in circular motions before rinsing off with water. This product is currently out of stock; check back for restock updates.

AB LAB B5 Bounce Conditioning Cleanser

The AB LAB B5 Bounce Conditioning Cleanser is a gentler, creamier option suited to drier or more sensitive skin. It's formulated with pro-vitamin B5, olive squalane, hyaluronic acid, and Australian native wild rosella extract, aimed at comforting stressed-out skin while it cleanses. It works well on its own for a simple one-step wash, or as the second step in a double cleanse after an oil-based formula, and its lighter texture makes it a reasonable pick for anyone who finds cream cleansers too heavy.
