Key Takeaway
Simple face wash costs PKR 1,250-2,450 in Pakistan on BigBasket.pk, varying by variant and batch. Here's the real price breakdown by skin type and use.
The Simple face wash price in Pakistan currently sits between PKR 1,250 and PKR 2,450 on BigBasket.pk, depending on which variant and batch you pick - Moisturising, Refreshing, Micellar Gel or Detox Purifying. Every listing is genuine imported stock, not the watered-down bottles that circulate in some open markets, and it ships with Cash on Delivery to Karachi, Lahore, Islamabad and the rest of the country.
Simple built its name abroad on a straightforward promise: no harsh soaps, no added perfume, no unnecessary alcohol - just a gentle cleanse dermatologists actually recommend for reactive skin. That reputation is exactly why the brand sells at a premium here compared to local face washes, and why picking the right variant and the right listing matters more than grabbing the first "Simple" bottle you see.
How Much Does Simple Face Wash Cost in Pakistan Right Now
Simple face wash isn't a single price point in Pakistan - it's a range, because BigBasket.pk carries several variants and, in some cases, more than one batch of the same formula at different discount levels. The Kind to Skin Refreshing Facial Wash 150ml is currently the cheapest listing at PKR 1,250 (down from PKR 2,150), while the same formula also appears as the Kind To Skin Refreshing Facial Wash at PKR 2,170 (down from PKR 3,100) in a separate batch, and again as the Refreshing Facial Wash at PKR 2,250 with no discount applied yet.
The Kind to Skin Moisturising Face Wash is PKR 2,150 (was PKR 3,200), and the near-identical Moisturising Facial Wash 150ml is PKR 2,400 (was PKR 3,500). The Micellar Gel Facial Wash sits at the top of the range at PKR 2,450, and the Daily Skin Detox Purifying Gel Wash is PKR 2,100. Because prices move with stock and promotions, always check the live listing before ordering - picking the cheapest correct variant can save you close to PKR 1,000 over the same product listed at full price.
Which Simple Face Wash Matches Your Skin Type
Simple doesn't make one universal face wash - each variant targets a different concern, and buying the wrong one wastes money on a formula that won't suit your skin. If your skin is dry, tight or reactive, which is common through Islamabad and Lahore's dry winters, the Kind to Skin Moisturising Face Wash at PKR 2,150 is the standard pick - it cleanses without stripping the skin's natural barrier.
Normal to combination skin, especially through Karachi's humid months, tends to do better with the Refreshing Facial Wash, which is lighter and leaves less residue than the moisturising formula. If you wear makeup, sunscreen or sit in traffic pollution daily, the Micellar Gel Facial Wash (PKR 2,450) is built to lift that layer without a separate makeup-remover step - it's a gel-to-micellar-water hybrid, not a plain foaming cleanser.
Oily or acne-prone skin, particularly in Karachi's heat and humidity, generally responds better to the Daily Skin Detox Purifying Gel Wash (PKR 2,100), formulated to clear grime and excess oil without the heavier moisturising base that can feel greasy by midday. None of the four are medicated acne treatments - they're gentle daily cleansers, so active cystic acne still needs a dermatologist-prescribed product alongside this.
Why Simple Costs More Than Local Face Washes
At PKR 1,250-2,450, Simple sits well above budget local face washes priced around PKR 399, and that gap is the single most common question shoppers have. The difference isn't just marketing - Simple is formulated without added fragrance, harsh sulphates or alcohol, and is imported rather than locally manufactured, both of which push the landed cost up.
For skin that reacts badly to strongly scented local cleansers - redness, tightness or small breakouts after use - the premium buys a formula less likely to trigger that response. If your skin already tolerates local face washes fine and budget is the priority, there's no real medical reason to switch; Simple's advantage is tolerability, not superior cleaning power. It's worth trying one 150ml bottle first rather than assuming it will outperform a budget cleanser for your specific skin type.

How to Spot Fake Simple Face Wash in Local Markets
Because Simple is an imported brand in high demand, counterfeit and repackaged bottles do turn up in open markets and unverified online listings across Pakistan - this is a genuine risk with the brand, not a generic warning. A genuine bottle has a smooth, medium-viscosity gel (not watery or overly thick), a mild, almost imperceptible scent, and sharp, correctly aligned print on the box with a legible batch code and expiry date.
Red flags include a strong perfumed smell (Simple markets itself specifically as fragrance-light), a runny or separated texture, blurry or misspelled text on the packaging, and pricing that seems too good to be true - a bottle offered well under PKR 1,000 with no visible discount history is worth questioning. Buying from a listed, verified source like BigBasket.pk's Simple brand page removes the guesswork, since every listing here is sourced as genuine stock rather than sold loose at a stall.
Using Simple Face Wash in Pakistan's Climate
How you use Simple face wash matters as much as which one you buy, especially given how differently Karachi, Lahore and Islamabad treat skin through the year. In Karachi's heat and humidity, twice-daily cleansing with the Refreshing or Detox Purifying Gel Wash helps manage sweat and oil buildup without over-drying. In Lahore and Islamabad's dry winters, cutting back to once a day - usually at night - and switching to the Moisturising Face Wash prevents the tightness and flaking that over-cleansing causes in cold, low-humidity air.
Simple face washes are cleansers, not treatments, so they won't fix pigmentation, texture or fine lines on their own. If you already use a Simple face wash and want to build out a fuller routine, the Simple Booster Serum with 10% Vitamins C+E+F (PKR 2,850) is designed to layer on cleansed skin before moisturiser - a logical next step, not a required one.
Cheaper Alternatives If Simple Is Above Your Budget
If PKR 1,250-2,450 is more than you want to spend on a face wash, BigBasket.pk carries genuine budget options at a fraction of the price. The Almond Milk & Honey Cleansing Face Wash and Aloe Vera Cleansing Face Wash are both PKR 399, with variants for oily and dry-to-normal skin, and the Peach Punch Cleansing Face Wash covers oily skin at the same PKR 399.
For a more familiar international name at a mid-range price, the Clean & Clear Foaming Face Wash is PKR 550 (down from PKR 595). None of these match Simple's fragrance-light, dermatologist-oriented formulation exactly, so they're honest budget substitutes rather than identical alternatives - but they're genuine stock, and for skin that isn't reactive, they clean just as effectively day to day. Browse the full range on the skin care category page to compare.
Common Mistakes
- Buying "Simple" face wash from an unverified local stall assuming it's genuine - counterfeit bottles with a thin, watery consistency and off scent are common in open markets.
- Assuming every "Simple face wash" listing is the same price - BigBasket.pk itself carries multiple batches of the Moisturising and Refreshing washes at different discounted prices, so always check the live listing first.
- Using the Detox Purifying Gel Wash twice daily during Lahore or Islamabad's dry winters, which can strip already-dry skin and cause tightness.
- Skipping moisturiser after cleansing - Simple face washes are gentle but not moisturising enough on their own for Karachi's humid, sweat-prone skin or dry winter skin.
- Treating the Micellar Gel Facial Wash like a makeup-remover wipe instead of massaging and rinsing it properly.
- Paying full price for the Refreshing Facial Wash when a cheaper discounted batch of the same formula is in stock.
