A 5% multi-AHA cleanser that earns its place in the routine not because it sounds impressive, but because it delivers — cleaner pores, smoother texture, and more even skin tone, built into the step you're already doing. What makes it different: four distinct alpha hydroxy acids, not one. Effective without being harsh.
What it feels like
Standard cleanser texture with an active, treatment-like feel. Mild tightness post-wash is expected and normal — follow with Utopia Toner to rebalance.
Top benefits
— Five-AHA system (Lactic, Glycolic, Mandelic, Tartaric & Citric) resurfaces in one step
— Mandelic Acid makes daily exfoliation accessible for sensitive skin and darker skin tones
— Organic Tamanu oil counterbalances acid activity
— Designed to replace a separate exfoliation step
PM: Massage onto damp face, neck, and chest in slow circular motions for at least 30 seconds. Rinse with warm water and pat dry.
PM Routine (Shasta nights): Kissimmee → Shasta → Utopia → Galilee → Halo or Moonbeam → Owel → Grand → Caspian
Alternate with Tashmoo on non-exfoliation nights.
Pore Confession: New to acids? Leave Shasta on for 2–3 minutes before rinsing — it works as a gentle mask. Start every other day, then build to daily as your skin adjusts.
If you're thinking of using two acid treatments in the same night, start slow: one night a week and build as tolerated.
Warning: External use only. Avoid direct contact with eyes.
Sunburn Alert: Contains AHA. Use SPF daily and limit sun exposure.
Skin feels clean with a slight active sensation.
A good skincare routine requires dedication (that's on you) – With consistent use, skin appears visibly smoother with a cleaner-looking complexion.
Build Your Skin Strategy
Follow with Utopia Toner to rebalance your skin.
Shasta and Tashmoo alternate in your PM cleanse. Shasta nights: first cleansing + exfoliation + resurfacing. Tashmoo nights: first cleansing + hydration + recovery. Kissimmee always leads as first cleanse step.
Daily exfoliation is essential for youthful skin as it aids in the removal of dead skin cells, allowing fresh and radiant skin to surface. Regular exfoliation helps to unclog pores, preventing acne and blackheads, while also promoting collagen production, leading to improved skin elasticity and a reduction in fine lines and wrinkles. By incorporating exfoliation into your cleansing routine, you're helping stimulate cell turnover, revealing a smoother and more even complexion in an extremely gentle way - even for the most senstive of skin types.
Our key ingredients
5% AHA Blend
(Glycolic, Lactic, Mandelic, Tartaric & Citric Acids): Five complementary alpha hydroxy acids that work on the surface to dissolve buildup and refine uneven texture — balanced for daily use.
Australian Caviar Lime Extract
Natural fruit acids and enzymes that gently brighten the look of uneven skin tone and visibly improve texture and smoothness.
Aloe Vera Leaf Juice
Full of nutrients, vitamins, and antioxidants. Natural soothing properties support blemish-prone skin.
Glycerin
Skin-identical humectant that draws moisture to the skin during cleansing — so the active ingredients work without leaving skin feeling stripped.
"Holy Grail My skin LOVES this cleanser. I use this 4 nights a week on my second cleanse. I do not use it the 2 nights a week I use retinol - since my skin didn't like that combo very well. I cannot live without this cleanser. My skin is so clean, bright and exfoliated after using this at night. This is the ONE cleanser that will always be in my routine. I have been using Holifrog since they launched and Shasta is my absolute favorite."
