This cleanser started on a family farm, not in a lab. That’s the whole story.
The founders grew up watching their grandmother make cold-pressed juices—they just swapped the glass for a pump bottle. The real reason it works? It treats your face like produce.
It’s a $38 gel cleanser from Youth to the People. I tried it because they claim you can feel the “superfood” energy. Skeptical, but intrigued.
Kale & Spinach Base
Not a salad, but the base is literally cold-pressed greens.
Vegan & Leaping Bunny
Certified cruelty-free, which is a non-negotiable for me.
pH-Balanced Gel
Strips makeup, not your skin’s natural barrier.

The hero ingredients are what you’d find at a fancy farmers’ market. They’re there for antioxidants, not just a marketing list.
- Kale: Fights free radicals from pollution
- Spinach: Vitamins A, C, E, K
- Green Tea: Calms redness and irritation
- Alfalfa: Minerals to nourish and balance

The texture is a slick, emerald gel. It lathers into a light, creamy foam—not the squeaky-clean suds of a drugstore bar.
After two weeks, my skin felt softer but not “moisturized.” The surprise? It removed my waterproof mascara better than some balms. Didn’t see that coming.
My complexion looked clearer and more even-toned. Zero tightness. But it’s a cleanser—it rinses off. It didn’t magically cure my hormonal breakouts.
It’s a beautifully executed, effective cleanser with a legit origin story. Overpriced? Maybe. But it makes washing your face feel intentional, not just a chore.
