Key Takeaway
BigBasket.pk doesn't stock a brand called Purel, so we can't verify that price — see why, plus real face wash prices from PKR 399 to PKR 7,350.
There is no verified Purel face wash price in Pakistan on BigBasket.pk, because we do not stock a brand called Purel — and we won't publish a price we can't check against real inventory. If you've seen "Purel face wash" prices floating around local markets or social media pages, treat them with caution: unverified sellers are exactly where counterfeit and inflated skincare pricing tends to show up. What we can give you instead is real, checkable pricing on face washes that are genuinely in stock, from PKR 399 budget cleansers to PKR 7,350 dermatologist-grade CeraVe.
Below we explain why "Purel" doesn't appear in our catalogue, what actually drives face wash pricing in Pakistan, and which in-stock alternatives suit oily, dry, or sensitive skin — all with Cash on Delivery nationwide, from Karachi to Lahore to Islamabad.
Why "Purel Face Wash" Isn't on BigBasket.pk
We checked our full catalogue and there is no product from a brand named Purel in our system — not under skin care, not under any category. That's not an oversight; it means we have no verified supplier, no verified batch, and no verified price for it, so we won't invent one. Pakistani shoppers often search brand names they've seen on a shop shelf, a WhatsApp catalogue, or an unauthorized reseller page, and "Purel" appears to be one of those names circulating without a consistent, traceable source.
This matters more than it sounds. A face wash with no verifiable distributor is a common vector for counterfeit packaging in Karachi's and Lahore's local markets — refilled bottles, mislabeled ingredients, and prices that swing from PKR 150 to PKR 600 for the "same" product depending on which shopkeeper you ask. If a seller can't tell you who imports the product or show a consistent price across listings, that price isn't real — it's a guess.
Rather than repeat an unverifiable number, we'd rather point you to face washes we actually stock, with prices that stay the same whether you check today or next week, because they come from a real inventory system, not a rumor.
What Actually Sets Face Wash Prices in Pakistan
Face wash pricing in Pakistan splits into three honest tiers, and knowing them helps you spot an inflated or fake listing instantly. Local cleansing formulas built around simple ingredients — almond milk, honey, aloe vera, peach extract — typically sit around PKR 399 for a full-size bottle, because the formulation and packaging cost is low and there's no import duty. Mass-market international foaming cleansers, like Clean & Clear Foaming Face Wash, land in the PKR 550–600 range, reflecting brand licensing and slightly more complex surfactant systems.
Dermatologist-recommended, imported ceramide-based cleansers sit highest — a small 87ml CeraVe Foaming Facial Cleanser runs PKR 2,895, while the 473ml size reaches PKR 7,350, because you're paying for import duty, cold-chain-sensitive shipping, and a formulation with ceramides and niacinamide that local brands rarely replicate.
If a "Purel" listing quotes a price under PKR 300 while claiming dermatologist-grade ingredients, or over PKR 3,000 for a basic foaming wash, that mismatch alone should raise a flag — genuine pricing tracks formulation complexity and import cost, not marketing claims.
Verified Face Wash Prices You Can Actually Trust
Here's what real, in-stock pricing looks like on BigBasket.pk right now. The Almond Milk & Honey Cleansing Face Wash is PKR 399 and works across all skin types, making it the most straightforward budget pick if you just want a reliable daily cleanser without hunting for a skin-type-specific formula.
For oily and combination skin common in Karachi's humidity, the Aloe Vera Cleansing Face Wash (PKR 399) and Clean & Clear Essentials Oil-Free Foaming Face Wash (PKR 599, down from PKR 899) both target excess oil without the aggressive stripping that pushes oily skin into rebound breakouts.
Teenagers and acne-prone users often reach for Clean & Clear Foaming Face Wash at PKR 550 (down from PKR 595) — a familiar, gentle foaming formula. At the premium end, CeraVe Foaming Facial Cleanser starts at PKR 2,895 for 87ml, built for sensitive, dry, or ceramide-depleted skin that needs barrier repair alongside cleansing. Every one of these prices is what you'll pay at checkout — no bargaining, no shop-to-shop variation.

How to Spot an Overpriced or Fake Face Wash Listing
Counterfeit and mispriced skincare is a real problem in Pakistan's open market, especially for brand names without an obvious flagship distributor. A few checks protect you regardless of which product you're buying. First, compare the price across at least two listings — genuine stock tends to hold a consistent price; counterfeit or grey-market stock swings wildly because sellers price based on what they paid, not a fixed retail rate.
Second, check the seal and batch code. Authentic foaming cleansers like CeraVe arrive with an intact induction seal under the cap and a printed batch/lot number; a bottle that's already opened, has a mismatched label font, or has no batch code at all is a red flag regardless of how convincing the price looks.
Third, be wary of "too good to be true" pricing on premium imported brands — a CeraVe-style ceramide cleanser genuinely cannot be sold profitably at PKR 500 in Pakistan once import duty and cold-chain shipping are factored in, so a listing at that price is almost certainly diluted, expired, or counterfeit stock. Buying from a seller who publishes fixed, checkable prices and offers Cash on Delivery — so you can inspect the product before paying — removes most of this risk in one step.
Choosing the Right Face Wash for Your Skin Type and Budget
Skip the brand-name chase and match the formula to your skin instead. Oily and acne-prone skin, especially through Karachi's humid months, does best with a foaming or gel cleanser that controls sebum without over-drying — the Aloe Vera Cleansing Face Wash or Peach Punch Cleansing Face Wash, both PKR 399, are built specifically for this.
Normal to dry skin, more common through Lahore and Islamabad's drier winters, benefits from a cream-based cleanser rather than a foaming one — the Almond Milk & Honey range's normal-to-dry variant cleanses without stripping the skin's natural barrier.
If you deal with sensitivity, eczema-prone patches, or a compromised barrier from over-exfoliating, the ceramide-and-niacinamide formula in CeraVe Foaming Facial Cleanser is worth the higher price — it's formulated to cleanse while actively repairing the barrier, which a PKR 399 cleanser isn't designed to do. Start with the 87ml size at PKR 2,895 to trial it before committing to a larger bottle. Whatever you choose, browse the full range on our skin care category page and check the price at checkout — that's the only number that's real.
Common Mistakes
- Assuming every brand name you find on social media or a local shop is sold in Pakistan through an authorized, verifiable channel
- Buying from unverified Instagram or WhatsApp sellers without checking induction seals or printed batch codes
- Comparing a Pakistani price to a US or UK listing without accounting for import duty and reseller markup
- Choosing a strong foaming cleanser for dry or mature skin, which strips natural oils and worsens dryness
- Chasing the lowest price on a premium imported brand instead of checking whether that price is even realistic
- Ignoring your actual skin type and picking a face wash purely because it's cheapest

Frequently Asked Questions
Does BigBasket.pk sell Purel face wash?+
No. We don't carry a brand called Purel, so we have no verified price to give you — any "Purel face wash price in Pakistan" you see elsewhere isn't something we can confirm. We'd rather point you to face washes we do stock, like the PKR 399 Almond Milk & Honey range, with prices you can check at checkout.
What's a realistic price range for face wash in Pakistan?+
Budget local formulas such as almond milk, aloe vera, or peach cleansers run around PKR 399, mass-market foaming cleansers like Clean & Clear sit between PKR 550 and PKR 599, and dermatologist-grade imported cleansers like CeraVe range from PKR 2,895 to PKR 7,350 depending on size. A price far outside these ranges for a comparable formula is worth double-checking.
Which face wash suits oily skin in humid cities like Karachi?+
The Aloe Vera Cleansing Face Wash and Clean & Clear Essentials Oil-Free Foaming Face Wash, both formulated for oily and breakout-prone skin, are the strongest picks at PKR 399 and PKR 599. Both foam and control excess oil without over-drying, which matters when humidity keeps skin producing more sebum.
Is CeraVe worth the higher price compared to local face washes?+
If your skin is dry, sensitive, or barrier-compromised, yes — CeraVe Foaming Facial Cleanser contains ceramides and niacinamide that help repair the skin barrier while cleansing, something a PKR 399 basic cleanser isn't formulated to do. Start with the 87ml size at PKR 2,895 before committing to a larger bottle.
Can I pay cash on delivery for face wash orders in Pakistan?+
Yes, BigBasket.pk offers Cash on Delivery nationwide, including Karachi, Lahore, and Islamabad, so you can inspect the product and seal before paying. This is also one of the safest ways to avoid counterfeit stock, since you're not paying upfront to an unverified seller.
How can I tell if a face wash price online is fake or inflated?+
Compare the price across at least two verified listings — genuine stock holds a consistent price, while grey-market or counterfeit stock swings widely. Also check for an intact induction seal and a printed batch code on the bottle; a missing seal or code is a strong warning sign regardless of how good the price looks.
The Short Version
TL;DR: BigBasket.pk doesn't stock a brand called Purel, so we can't verify its price — treat any number you see for it elsewhere with caution. For real, checkable pricing, budget cleansers like Almond Milk & Honey Face Wash start at PKR 399, and dermatologist-grade CeraVe Foaming Facial Cleanser starts at PKR 2,895 — all with nationwide Cash on Delivery.
