New York, NY, USA - November 6, 2026 - PRESS RELEASE - Some products earn a place in a brand’s lineup. Others become the founder’s own favorite. At Sweetwater Labs, the natural skincare brand based in New York, the Glycolic Scrub Face Wash is one of the products founder Nadia Doh counts as a personal favorite, and customers are saying the same.
The face wash combines two well-known exfoliating ingredients, glycolic acid and salicylic acid, with eco-friendly microbeads for a gentle scrub. It is designed to cleanse and exfoliate in one step, leaving skin feeling refreshed.
One recent customer, C.M., left the product a five-star review. “I love the glycolic scrub face wash! It makes my skin feel soft and smooth, and it helped with the red patches on my forehead,” she wrote. “One of the best I’ve used in my years of searching for clean and effective skincare products! Will definitely buy again.”
That kind of feedback reflects the reason Sweetwater Labs exists. Nadia Doh started the company after repeated allergic reactions to conventional skincare products. She then spent a decade on apothecary and botanical science research before the first product reached customers. The goal was skincare made from natural ingredients that works for all skin types, including sensitive skin.
Glycolic acid plays a recurring role in the Sweetwater Labs line. The brand uses sugar cane-derived glycolic acid, and the ingredient also features in its Revive Glycolic Acid and Rosewater Mask, designed to gently exfoliate and leave skin looking radiant. Customers who enjoy the face wash can pair it with the mask, or with the brand’s bestsellers, the Rose Face Oil, made with pure Bulgarian rose and argan oils, and the Vitamin Face Serum, which pairs vitamin C with hyaluronic acid.
Every Sweetwater Labs product is cruelty-free and non-GMO, and the range is vegan apart from the brand’s goat’s milk soaps. The products are made with pure components and contain no synthetic fragrances, parabens or chemical preservatives.
Sweetwater Labs began in Manhattan retail, with locations at the Turnstyle Underground Market near Columbus Circle and The Oculus at the World Trade Center, before moving primarily online. The brand holds the Google Top Quality Store badge, which it notes is awarded to fewer than 3% of e-commerce brands, and offers free U.S. shipping on orders of $30 and over.
