pineapple refresh

"Takes off sunscreen and makeup without the squeaky, tight-face feeling."
Our take

$30 Price at rhode, checked Oct 2026.

The short answer

rhode's Pineapple Refresh is a gentle balm-to-lather daily cleanser with pineapple enzyme, polyglutamic acid and hyaluronic acid. It's worth it if you want one cleanser that removes SPF and makeup but leaves skin soft. Budget shoppers can get a similar gentle cleanse for less.

Our Take

Why it made the edit.

Why we love it: Gentle surfactants keep skin from feeling stripped, which matters if you wash twice a day. The pineapple enzyme adds a light exfoliating touch.
Skip it if: You're happy with a cheaper gentle cleanser that already works for you.
The catch: $30 is a lot for something that's on your face for a minute. The Byoma Creamy Jelly Cleanser is $12.99.
