What it is
What is the Cleansing Powder Wash?
It’s a fine powder that activates into a gentle lather when mixed with water. A plant-derived papain enzyme softens and dissolves surface buildup without the physical friction of scrub beads, while the formula is designed at a skin-similar pH to avoid over-stripping.Papain Enzyme
A plant-derived enzyme that gently dissolves dead skin cell buildup without physical scrubbing.
Skin-Similar pH
Formulated close to skin’s own pH to protect the barrier and avoid post-wash tightness.
Water-Activated Powder
A fine powder texture that turns into a light foam only once mixed with water — easy to dose and travel-friendly.
The evidence
The results RIMAN reports
RIMAN cites a consumer study (GSC Anti-Aging Lab, 34 adults, 9-point satisfaction scale). Sharing the figures as reported — not as a promise:Improvement in skin radiance/glow
Improvement in surface exfoliation
Improvement in skin hydration
Improvement in texture/roughness
Brand-reported. Figures are RIMAN’s own consumer study results. Cosmetic, not medical, claims — individual results vary.
The method
How to use it
Pairs well with
RIMAN suggests pairing this with the Moisture Cleansing Oil as a two-step cleanse — oil first to break down makeup and buildup, then this powder wash 1–2× a week for exfoliation.
The honest part
What it realistically does — and doesn’t
What you can expect: a gentler alternative to physical scrubs, with a real short-term boost in glow and smoothness right after washing. That’s a solid, well-scoped job for an enzyme powder cleanser. The honest limitation: this is a surface-level, immediate-use effect, not a substitute for a full exfoliation routine if you have deeper texture concerns. Use it a few times a week, not as a daily cleanser, to avoid over-exfoliating. Educational content, not medical advice — results vary.The decision
Buy or skip: who this cleanser is for
Buy it if
- Your skin looks dull or feels rough
- You want a gentle, enzyme-based exfoliant
- You like a travel-friendly powder format
Skip it if
- You already exfoliate regularly with acids or retinoids
- You want a daily-use, non-exfoliating cleanser
- Your skin is very reactive to exfoliation
Bottom line: the ICD Cleansing Powder Wash is a gentle, effective enzyme exfoliant with real short-term gains in glow and smoothness. A great weekly step for dull, rough skin; easy to skip if your exfoliation routine is already full.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q. How often should I use it?
A. As an exfoliating step, not a daily cleanser — a few times a week is a reasonable starting point, adjusted to how your skin responds.
Q. Can I use it with retinoids or acids?
A. Be cautious about stacking exfoliation methods. If you already use acids or retinoids regularly, you likely don’t need this as well — or use it less often to avoid over-exfoliating.
Q. Does the powder feel gritty?
A. It’s designed to dissolve into a foam via the papain enzyme rather than relying on physical scrub particles, so it should feel smoother than a bead-based scrub.
Q. Why is there a surcharge at checkout?
A. A 3.6% surcharge currently applies at checkout due to import tariffs. The $36 price is before that surcharge; confirm the final total at the retailer.
