Skin Script Raspberry Refining Cleanser is a foaming, exfoliating cleanser built around two proven acne-fighting acids, salicylic acid and glycolic acid, to deliver a deep clean that goes well beyond removing surface dirt. Designed as a weekly deep-cleansing treatment rather than an everyday wash, it dissolves pore congestion, smooths rough texture, and helps keep breakouts under control without the drying effects of benzoyl peroxide. A blend of tea tree leaf oil, lime oil, and grapefruit peel oil gives this cleanser a fresh, naturally invigorating scent.
Key Benefits
Clears and prevents breakouts Salicylic acid penetrates into pores to dissolve the oil and debris that trigger acne, while tea tree leaf oil and neem extracts provide additional antibacterial and anti-inflammatory support.
Smooths uneven texture Glycolic acid accelerates surface cell turnover so dead skin lifts away, revealing a smoother, more refined complexion underneath.
Deep cleans without over-drying A gentle surfactant base paired with glycerin and PEG-50 shea butter removes excess oil, makeup, and impurities while helping skin retain essential moisture.
Calms irritation while it exfoliates Raspberry fruit extract, turmeric root extract, and aloe barbadensis flower extract deliver antioxidant and soothing benefits that help offset the intensity of the exfoliating acids.
Refines and tightens pores Witch hazel water acts as a natural astringent, helping to minimize the look of enlarged pores and control excess sebum production throughout the day.
-
If your skin is oily, acne-prone, or constantly battling clogged pores and rough texture, this cleanser was made for you. It is especially well suited as a benzoyl peroxide alternative for skin that tends to dry out or flake when using traditional acne washes.
Ideal for resilient, oily skin types that need a deeper level of exfoliation beyond what a daily cleanser provides. If you experience persistent congestion, blackheads, or dull surface buildup, using this two to three times per week can make a noticeable difference in clarity and smoothness.
This cleanser is not recommended for sensitive, rosacea-prone, dry, or barrier-compromised skin, as the combination of salicylic acid and glycolic acid can increase irritation in those skin types.
-
Apply this cleanser to dry skin first, before adding water. Starting on dry skin gives salicylic acid and glycolic acid a few extra seconds of direct contact with oil and congestion before the lather dilutes them, so you get a more effective pore-clearing treatment in the same two-minute wash time.
-
Apply: Place a small amount onto fingertips and massage onto dry skin.
Technique: Dampen fingers with water to emulsify the cleanser, then massage in gentle circular motions for two full minutes to allow the acids to work into the pores.
Rinse: Remove thoroughly with warm water and follow with your preferred toner.
Frequency: Use two to three times per week as a deep-cleansing treatment. Only very oily, resilient skin types should consider more frequent use.

Key Ingredients
- Glycolic Acid: An alpha-hydroxy acid that exfoliates, smooths wrinkles, and reduces the appearance of dark spots.
- Salicylic Acid: A beta-hydroxy acid that refines texture, clears congested pores, and helps control oil production.
- Tea Tree (Melaleuca) Oil: Provides antiseptic properties to reduce the spread of acne-causing bacteria and naturally reduces oil production to prevent future breakouts without stripping the skin.
- Raspberry Extract: Antioxidant that provides natural UV support with anti-inflammatory and hydrating benefits.

What is Skin Script Raspberry Refining Cleanser?
Skin Script Raspberry Refining Cleanser is a foaming, exfoliating facial cleanser formulated with salicylic acid and glycolic acid to deeply cleanse pores, dissolve congestion, and refine skin texture. It is designed to be used as a weekly deep-cleansing treatment rather than an everyday wash, making it a targeted step for oily and acne-prone skin.
How often should I use Skin Script Raspberry Refining Cleanser?
For most skin types, two to three times per week is the sweet spot. This gives your skin the exfoliating benefits of salicylic acid and glycolic acid without over-stripping or causing irritation. Only very oily, resilient skin types may tolerate daily use, and even then, you should monitor your skin closely for signs of sensitivity.
Can Skin Script Raspberry Refining Cleanser replace my benzoyl peroxide cleanser?
Yes, many acne-prone skin types use this as a benzoyl peroxide alternative. Salicylic acid works inside the pore to dissolve oil and debris, while glycolic acid smooths the surface. Together they address breakouts and congestion without the bleaching or excessive dryness that benzoyl peroxide can cause. If you are transitioning away from benzoyl peroxide, start with two to three uses per week and adjust based on how your skin responds.
Is Skin Script Raspberry Refining Cleanser safe for sensitive skin?
This cleanser is not recommended for sensitive, reactive, rosacea-prone, dry, or barrier-compromised skin. The combination of salicylic acid and glycolic acid provides meaningful exfoliation that can overwhelm delicate skin types. If you are unsure whether your skin can handle an acid-based cleanser, reach out for a free skincare consultation before purchasing.
Why do I apply Skin Script Raspberry Refining Cleanser to dry skin first?
Applying to dry skin allows salicylic acid and glycolic acid to make direct contact with oil and surface buildup before being diluted by water. This maximizes the exfoliating and pore-clearing effects during the two-minute massage time. Once you dampen your fingers and emulsify, the cleanser lathers up for a thorough rinse.
What does Skin Script Raspberry Refining Cleanser smell like?
It has a fresh, lightly citrus-forward scent from its blend of tea tree leaf oil, lime oil, and grapefruit peel oil. The fragrance is noticeable during use but does not linger on the skin after rinsing.
Can I use Skin Script Raspberry Refining Cleanser with other exfoliating products?
Use caution when combining this cleanser with other exfoliants such as retinol, AHA toners, or exfoliating serums. Because it already contains both salicylic acid and glycolic acid, layering additional exfoliants on the same day can lead to irritation or a compromised moisture barrier. On the days you use this cleanser, keep the rest of your routine hydrating and simple.

Can I use this cleanser with acne treatments or retinoids?
Caution is recommended. Because this cleanser contains exfoliating acids, many clients benefit from avoiding retinoids or other exfoliants on the same day. Always monitor skin tolerance and adjust frequency accordingly.
Is this cleanser safe for sensitive or rosacea-prone skin?
No. This cleanser is not recommended for sensitive or rosacea-prone skin, as the foaming action and exfoliating acids may be too stimulating.
Can this cleanser be used after professional treatments?
No. This cleanser is not appropriate for post-treatment care. Always wait until the skin barrier is fully intact and follow your provider’s post-care instructions before resuming exfoliating products.
Is the Skin Script Raspberry Refining Cleanser safe around the eyes?
No. Avoid using this cleanser on or around the eyes, and do not use it to remove eye makeup.
Is this cleanser safe for teens?
This cleanser may be appropriate for teens with very oily, acne-prone skin when used no more than a few times per week, depending on skin tolerance and professional guidance.
How is the Skin Script Raspberry Refining Cleanser different from other acne cleansers?
Unlike daily acne cleansers, this formula is designed as a deep-cleansing, exfoliating wash. It combines salicylic and glycolic acids to clear pores and refine texture, making it an effective weekly treatment cleanser rather than an everyday face wash for most people.
What should I do if this cleanser dries or irritates my skin?
If dryness or irritation occurs, discontinue use and focus on barrier-supportive hydration and repair. This cleanser may be too strong for your skin or may be used too frequently.
An AOS esthetician can help determine the best cleansing schedule for your skin type. You may also refer to our guide on finding the best cleanser for your skin type and concerns.

I have mature skin but still get clogged pores. I need a gentle cleanser that also deep cleans and this is it! A little goes a long way and it works well, in addition to smelling good. So glad I decided to try this! I have found other Skin Script products work well for me and this is a new addition for me.

When I tell this skin along with 2-3 basic facials for extractions brought my skin back to life. I love this stuff truly. This pictures don’t do this product justice. It can get drying once your skin clears up so switch to something gentle.
