GH 5 Gel Cleanser: smart pH 5 cleansing for oily skin that refuses to sacrifice hydration
Many oily skin cleansers manage to remove excess sebum, but at the cost of disrupting the acid mantle and leaving skin tight and irritated. GH 5 Gel Limpiador by Gema Herrerías breaks with that logic: its pH 5 formula — hence the name — preserves the skin's natural moisturising factor while the active ingredients do their work: succinic acid controls sebum and fights bacteria, inulin acts as a prebiotic to balance the dermobiota, and malachite extract provides powerful antioxidant protection. The result is thorough, sensorial, non-stripping cleansing, with an exclusive floral fragrance designed specifically for the brand.
Action and Benefits
- Deep cleansing that removes impurities, excess sebum and make-up without disrupting the skin barrier.

Key Active Ingredients
- Succinic Acid: dicarboxylic AHA with sebum-regulating, antibacterial and mildly keratolytic properties. Controls excess sebum, reduces blemishes and improves skin texture.
- Inulin (prebiotic effect): plant-derived polysaccharide that acts as a prebiotic, promoting the growth of beneficial microbiota bacteria and balancing the skin's dermobiota.
- Malachite Extract: mineral rich in trace elements with powerful antioxidant action. Gives the formula its characteristic blue tint and protects the skin from environmental oxidative damage.
- Sodium Lauroyl Sarcosinate + Cocamidopropyl Betaine + Coco-Glucoside: combination of mild, plant-derived surfactants for effective cleansing without drying or irritating the skin.
- Glycerin: humectant that maintains hydration and comfort during cleansing.
How to Apply
- Apply a small amount of gel to damp skin.
- Massage with gentle circular movements until a lather forms.
- Rinse thoroughly with water.
- Can be used morning and evening. Store between 10 and 30°C. PAO: 24 months.
Active technology and science behind every formula
What sets gh apart from other pharmacy brands is the concentration and form of its actives. Using pure direct papain is not the same as using a papaya extract. Azeloglycine® — active at any pH without alcohol — is not the same as conventional azelaic acid. Anhydrous retinol stabilised in oil is not the same as water-based retinol. At gh, the difference between an active and its best-in-class form is the difference between marketing and efficacy.
Key actives across the catalogue include: triple hyaluronic acid (high molecular weight, acetylated and hydrolysed) for hydration at every skin layer; liposomal NP and NG ceramides for skin barrier repair; a full retinoid spectrum from introductory retinaldehyde to 0.3% pure retinol; pre/postbiotic complexes for dermobiome care; and next-generation depigmenting actives including tranexamic acid, 10% niacinamide and biotechnological Vitamin D3-like.
Award-winning products and collaborations with leading science communicators
The Función Barrera Cremagel has received iDermo Silver and Bronze awards for Best Facial Product and is the brand's best-selling product. Several products have been developed in collaboration with key figures in Spanish dermatological communication: the Triple H Hydrating Essence and Kirē Cleansing Emulsion with Cristina Mitre, the exfoliating lotion 5 Azelaic-S also with Cristina Mitre, and the repairing cream Mano de Santo with Boticaria García. These are formulation collaborations, not endorsements: each creator was actively involved in the development of her product.
