Excess oil and dead skin cells that aren't properly cleansed can clog pores, leading to blackheads and a dull complexion, while harsh cleansers strip the skin's barrier.

Hit refresh with a dual-action exfoliating cleanser that gently cleanses and clarifies skin without disrupting the skin barrier. This advanced formulation combines microspheres with a botanical trifecta of Citrus Fruit Peel, Papaya Enzymes, and Pineapple Enzymes. Together, they gently and effectively buff away dead skin cells, lift excess oil, and help decongest and minimize the appearance of pores. Meanwhile, bamboo stem powder strengthens the skin barrier and improves elasticity. You're left with skin that's incredibly soft, smooth, and healthy.

*Your satisfaction is our priority. We offer a 30-day money back guarantee on all products.

"As a dermatologist, I value formulations that are gentle enough for daily maintenance. Matter of Monday's products are clean and gentle, while also protecting against everyday environmental stressors. It’s a thoughtful, science-driven approach to skincare."

Dr. Ryan Turner, MD

Board-Certified Dermatologist

"What makes Matter of Monday's Anti-Blue Light Brightening Serum exceptional is its dual-action formulation — it not only protects the skin from digital pollution but also supports its natural repair processes overnight. In my practice, this kind of protection against blue light is the missing link in many skincare routines — and this serum finally fills that gap."

Self Care and Escape
The cleanser is a luxuary treat to me. Every day I look forward to using it. It's a moment of self-care and escape. The scent is natural from its ingredients and feels refreshing. My face feel so clean and tender afterwards, yet not dry or tight.
