Sunday Riley Ceramic Slip French Green Clay Cleanser

Editor's Take

The ethoxylated cleansing base dents the cleaner positioning, but the clay-to-surfactant balance is smarter and less punishing than the average pore-cleansing wash.

Four-pillar formula scores

  • Efficacy: 7.4 / 10
  • Modern Tech: 6.8 / 10
  • Clean Beauty: 6.1 / 10
  • Sustainability: 8.9 / 10

The Verdict

Efficacy is solid: Montmorillonite and Kaolin tackle excess oil, while Sodium Cocoyl Isethionate helps keep the rinse from feeling severe. Sustainability is good, although persistent Polyacrylate-33 and ethoxylated ingredients qualify that result. Disodium Laureth Sulfosuccinate keeps Clean Standards at moderate, with Linalool and Farnesol adding a secondary sensitivity caveat. A credible oily-skin cleanser whose thoughtful performance outruns its clean positioning.
