The brightening exfoliating cleanser that resurfaces while it cleanses.
DaVida Skin Crystal Clear Cleanser is a brightening AHA/BHA cleanser with 10% glycolic acid, 0.5% salicylic acid, and natural arbutin — a daily-use scrub-cleanser hybrid that gently sloughs dead cells, decongests pores, and reveals brighter skin underneath. Bio-friendly exfoliating beads add light physical exfoliation; antioxidants soothe the surface as the acids work.
Why people reach for it
10% glycolic acid (AHA) for surface texture and tone; 0.5% salicylic acid (BHA) for deeper pore-clearing — comprehensive exfoliation in one step.
Arbutin is a clinically validated natural skin brightener — addresses dark spots and uneven tone every time you cleanse.
Light physical exfoliation pairs with the chemical acids — biodegradable beads, no microplastics, no harsh scrub action.
Vitamins A, C, E, Co-Q10, green tea, and chamomile soothe surface skin while the actives do the deeper work.
Who it's for
Best for normal, combination, and oily skin — designed to address:
Why it works
AHA + BHA pairing that supports cellular renewal — sloughs dull, dead cells off the upper layers and decongests inside the pore. Minimizes the look of fine lines, wrinkles, and pore size.
A natural skin brightener proven to condition the skin and promote a more even tone. Addresses pigmentation gently with daily use.
A four-vitamin antioxidant complex that nourishes skin and protects against free radical damage during cleansing.
Natural botanicals that soothe and calm visible irritation — important balance against the active acids.
How to use it
- Wet face with warm water
- Apply a dime-sized amount, massage in circular motions
- Let sit on skin for 30 seconds for the acids to work
- Rinse thoroughly with warm water
- Start once daily (PM only)
- Increase to twice daily as tolerated
- Pair with HA Hydrating Serum after cleansing to buffer
- Daily SPF is non-negotiable — AHAs increase sun sensitivity
Common questions
Is this an exfoliating cleanser or a face wash?
Both. The 10% glycolic + 0.5% salicylic make it a true chemical exfoliating cleanser, while the bio-friendly beads add gentle physical exfoliation. Most clients use it as their daily face wash and don't need a separate exfoliant.
Can I use it daily?
Yes — it's formulated for daily use. Sensitive skin should start once daily and build up. If skin starts feeling tight or peeling, drop to every other day.
How does it compare to other glycolic cleansers?
10% glycolic is on the higher end of daily-use cleansers (most drugstore versions are 5% or below). Combined with salicylic acid and arbutin, it works on texture, pores, AND pigment in one step — most other cleansers pick only one of those three.
Can I use it with retinol or other actives?
Yes — wash-off acids give brief contact time, so they pair well with leave-on retinols and serums. Use this in the morning if you're using retinol at night, or vice versa.
Will it dry me out?
Some adjustment is normal in the first 1–2 weeks. The vitamins and botanicals counterbalance the acids, but always follow with moisturizer. Reduce frequency if dryness persists.
Is it pregnancy-safe?
Glycolic and salicylic acids in topical wash-off products are generally considered low-risk during pregnancy, but always confirm with your provider before continuing during pregnancy.
Do you ship, or can I pick up locally?
Both. Free shipping over $100 within the US, or pick up at our San Antonio location (20327 Interstate 10 Ste 140) — usually ready within 24 hours of ordering.
"Crystal Clear is the cleanser we built for clients who want their morning wash to actually do something. The arbutin is the secret weapon — most exfoliating cleansers skip the brightening, and you can feel the difference within a few weeks."
