STEP 1 - CLEANSE
Super Balanced
Daily Gentle Gel Cleanser
For Normal, Dry, Sensitive & Dehydrated Skin
Cleanses without stripping. Hydrates while it works. Keeping your skin barrier intact.
Cleansing is the foundation of any effective skincare routine. Properly cleansing normal, sensitive and dry skin is essential to gently remove impurities and make-up without stripping natural oils. This supports skin moisture and hydration, preventing further dryness and irritation. Super Balanced contains a unique blend of surfactants and cleansing agents specifically formulated for sensitive and dry skin.
- Enriched with Glycerin, Niacinamide, and Saccharide Isomerate, this cleanser helps repair stressed skin and soothes it for 24 hours after washing off, preventing tightness and discomfort.
- Glycerin attracts moisture to the skin, maintaining hydration and leaving it soft and supple. Niacinamide, known for its anti-inflammatory properties, helps calm and soothe irritated skin while improving the skin barrier.
- Isaccaride Isomerate provides long-lasting hydration by binding water to the skin, ensuring continuous moisture and a comfortable feel.
- Free from harsh chemicals and alcohol, Super Balanced also doubles as a gentle make-up remover for even the most sensitive areas, including around the eyes.
Super Balanced is a key step for healthy, hydrated and balanced skin.

Why Dr. Ceylan Yilmaz created Super Balanced:
"Most cleansers for dry and sensitive skin focus on removing less, not cleansing better. Super Balanced was formulated to effectively lift away daily buildup, sunscreen and excess oil while respecting the integrity of the skin barrier. Using a carefully selected blend of mild surfactants alongside Saccharide Isomerate and Niacinamide, the formula helps minimise post-cleanse tightness, support lasting hydration, and leave skin feeling calm, soft and comfortably balanced. Because the quality of a cleanser shouldn’t just be defined by how much it removes from the skin, but by what it leaves intact after every wash."

Frequently Asked Questions
Yes, Super Balanced is an ideal facial cleanser for dry skin. Gentle surfactants lift impurities without stripping, so skin feels soft, not tight. Niacinamide strengthens the barrier, Panthenol and Saccharide Isomerate soothe and hydrate, Glycerin and Sodium Lactate draw moisture in, and Sunflower Seed Oil delivers essential fatty acids. A proper cleanse without post-cleanse tightness.
No. Super Balanced is formulated to cleanse thoroughly without that "squeaky clean" feeling that often signals over-stripping.
A gentle surfactant blend removes daily build-up while humectants (Glycerin, Sodium Lactate) and soothing agents (Panthenol, Saccharide Isomerate, Niacinamide) keep skin balanced and comfortable. You'll feel clean, not dry or tight.
Absolutely. Super Balanced was designed with reactive skin in mind; it cleanses without disrupting the barrier, which is usually what sensitive skin needs most.
Gentle surfactants clean without harshness. Niacinamide calms and strengthens. Panthenol and Saccharide Isomerate deliver soothing hydration. Glycerin and Sodium Lactate provide lasting moisture support.
If your skin tends to flush, sting, or feel "stressed" after cleansing, this is a good place to start.
Yes. Super Balanced effectively removes daily SPF and light makeup without stripping.
Gentle surfactants lift sunscreen and pigment, while barrier-friendly ingredients (Panthenol, Niacinamide, Saccharide Isomerate) keep skin comfortable afterwards.
How to use: One cleanse is usually enough. For heavier makeup or long-wear SPF, double-cleanse: first pass to break it down, second pass to clear it away.
Super Balanced facial cleanser removes build-up without compromising the barrier, then actively supports it. Gentle surfactants avoid the tight, stripped feeling. Niacinamide reinforces barrier function over time. Panthenol and Saccharide Isomerate soothe reactive skin. Glycerin and Sodium Lactate lock in moisture. Sunflower Seed Oil provides essential fatty acids for resilience, leaving skin clean and balanced.
For most skin types, no. A non-foaming cleanser alone is not enough for daily use, particularly if you wear sunscreen.
Non-foaming cleansers, including cream, lotion, milk, and oil cleansers, rely on emulsifiers rather than surfactants. They effectively dissolve oil-based residue but lack the chemical capacity to fully clear sunscreen, accumulated sebum, sweat, and environmental pollution from the skin's surface. Over time, this incomplete cleansing can contribute to congestion, dullness, and breakouts.
Yes, Super Balanced is gentle enough for twice-daily use, even on dry skin. However, it is formulated at a level where you only need to use it once. Unless you have been wearing heavy makeup.
AM: Keep it brief (20–30 seconds). If you wake up feeling particularly dry, a light cleanse is fine.
PM: This is your main cleanse. 30-60 seconds to remove sunscreen, makeup, and the day.
Follow with your Methodical routine straight after to lock in the benefits.
Yes. Super Balanced facial cleanser pairs with Vitamin A and Vitamin C because it cleans thoroughly without stripping, exactly what you want when using actives. Vitamin A and C can sensitise stressed skin, so a gentle, light-foaming cleanse keeps the routine effective without tipping into irritation. If you're new to retinal, prioritise moisturiser after; consistency beats intensity.
Yes, this is exactly what Super Balanced is designed for.
It cleanses without aggravating dryness, then supports skin with moisture-binding humectants (Glycerin, Sodium Lactate) and soothing hydrators (Panthenol, Saccharide Isomerate). Niacinamide helps reinforce the barrier so hydration stays put.
Tip: Use lukewarm water, keep cleansing to 30–45 seconds, and follow immediately with the next steps in your Methodical Method.
Yes - Super Balanced is made to pair with Vitamin A and Vitamin C, because it cleans thoroughly without stripping (which is exactly what you want when you’re using active ingredients).
AM routine
Cleanse (Super Balanced) → Leave-on exfoliant (choose one: Super Smooth / Super Soft / Super Clear) → Treat (Super Firm Vitamin C & Super Repair Vitamin B) → Moisturise (Super Supportive) → Finish with your daily SPF
PM routine
Cleanse (Super Balanced) → Treat (Super Firm Vitamin C, Super Repair Vitamin B, & Super Essential Vitamin A) → Moisturise (Super Supportive) → Eye serum (Super Bright)
Why it works with actives
Vitamin A and Vitamin C can make skin more sensitive if your barrier is already stressed. A light-foaming, gentle cleanser helps keep the routine effective without tipping skin into dryness or irritation.
If you’re new to Vitamin A: keep cleansing gentle, and prioritise moisturiser after. Consistency beats intensity.
Super Balanced is designed to be breakout-friendly. It rinses clean without leaving residue, and it supports a calm barrier - which is key when you're prone to congestion.
Niacinamide and Panthenol help reduce irritation-driven breakouts. Glycerin and Sodium Lactate keep skin hydrated, so it doesn't overcompensate with excess oil.
For most skin types, this cleanser won't clog pores or trigger new breakouts.
Usually no. Dry skin typically needs only one cleanse with a gentle facial cleanser, provided it's done properly. Stick to one cleanse for everyday SPF, light makeup, or when skin feels tight or sensitised. Methodical’s Super Balanced is designed to gently cleanse while supporting the skin. Double cleanse only for heavy makeup, long-wear SPF, sweat, or pollution. Keep the second cleanse short (20-30 seconds), never aggressive.
Dr Ceylan Yilmaz's method: start with a damp face. Press one pump of Super Gentle facial cleanser between two soft cotton pads. Sweep over skin in light, circular motions, focusing on areas where SPF and makeup sit, without scrubbing or dragging. Rinse with lukewarm water, pat dry, then continue your Methodical routine.
Yes, Super Balanced is safe to use during pregnancy and breastfeeding.
It's a rinse-off formula with no retinoids (Vitamin A derivatives) or other ingredients typically flagged as concerns during pregnancy. From an ingredient-safety perspective, there's nothing in this cleanser we'd consider problematic.
As always, if you have specific medical advice from your clinician, follow that first.
