"The Cream Cleansing Gel with TFC8 Gentle Cleanser"

From product name

WIMJ summary for cleansing

This product works by removing dirt and oil from the surface of the skin. It uses a combination of mild cleansing agents (coco-glucoside, coconut acid, disodium cocoyl glutamate, hydrogenated lecithin, xanthan gum) and should be able to cleanse the skin gently. Still keep in mind that any cleansing can disrupt the skin barrier, and most people do not need to cleanse their skin more than once per day.

Even though this formulation is mild, the following cleansing agents could trigger an irritation or allergy for some people: coco-glucoside

Ingredient	Effectiveness	Concentration	Irritancy
coco-glucoside	HIGH
coconut acid	HIGH
disodium cocoyl glutamate	HIGH

Ingredients by volume

Ingredient	Estimated concentration
water Plain old water	40% - 60%
glycerin One of the best moisturizing ingredients. Naturally present in skin. It attracts water to the upper layer of the skin working as a humectant	3.8% - 5.8%
prunus amygdalus dulcis oil An emollient that softens the skin	3.7% - 5.5%
rosa damascena flower water Used to add a nice rose smell to the product. Might help attract water to the upper layer of the skin and have some anti-oxidant effect. Can be irritating	2.7% - 4%
disodium cocoyl glutamate Helps water and oil mix together and works as a cleansing agent	2.1% - 3.2%
coco-glucoside Used as a cleansing agent (surfactant) in cleansers. Helps water and oil mix together in lotions. Can be irritating	1.7% - 2.5%
xanthan gum Used to create a thicker product consistency	1.4% - 2.1%
1,2-hexanediol A preservative	0.5% - 1.15%
citric acid Can work as an exfoliant but is typically used to adjust the product pH	1% - 1.5%
sea salt Used to thicken the product formulation and might help to add minerals to the surface of the skin. It is used in scrubs as a physical exfoliant. Can increase sensitivity to other ingredients if left on the skin or used in high concentration	0.8% - 1.2%
carrageenan Helps thicken the product formula and create a nice product formulation	0.55% - 1.25%
coconut acid	0.5% - 1.2%
o-cymen-5-ol A preservative	0.05% - 0.1%
cucumis sativus fruit extract Might be somewhat helpful in reducing hyperpigmentation and neutralizing free radicals but its typical concentration in a product is too low for having an effect	0.35% - 0.8%
helianthus annuus seed oil A great emollient due to its high linoleic acid content. One of the most effective plant oils in helping skin hydration and repairing skin barrier function	0.35% - 0.8%
tocopherol Pure form of vitamin E. Can help moisturise and protect the skin from free radicals. Often used to help stabilise other ingredients or the formula itself	0.3% - 0.75%
hydrolyzed rice protein Helps attract water to the upper layer of the skin. Might have some anti-oxidant properties	0.2% - 0.8%
maltodextrin Used to stabilize the product formulation and can help absorb oil	0.2% - 0.7%
aloe barbadensis leaf juice powder Traditionally used to treat sunburns, dermatitis and inflammation, but evidence for its effectiveness is lacking. The extract can contain humectants that help attract water into the skin	0.15% - 0.55%
camellia sinensis leaf extract Can contain potent anti-oxidant compounds (abbreviated ECG, GCG, EGC, and EGCG) that might help protect the skin from free radicals. Can help calm down inflammation and has some anti-bacterial properties. Unfortunately, these antioxidants are unstable and lose their effectiveness very quickly in products. The concentration of the antioxidant compounds in the extract also tends to be low to be effective in topical formulation	0.15% - 0.55%
hydrogenated lecithin Helps to retain moisture by creating a protective barrier on the skin. Rich in fatty acids. Improves product texture and helps with the penetration of other ingredients.	0.15% - 0.5%
tocopheryl acetate A more stable but less bio-available form of vitamin E compared to Tocopherol. Might help moisturize and protect the skin from free radicals, but mostly used in low concentrations to stabilize other ingredients.	0.15% - 0.5%
alanyl glutamine A type of peptide. Peptides are excellent moisturizers and might be able support collagen production reducing fine lines and wrinkles	0.1% - 0.4%
arginine An amino acid that is naturally present in skin and helps keep it hydrated. When used together with AHAs, it can reduce their irritating effect on the skin	0.05% - 0.3%
oligopeptide-17	0.05% - 0.3%
phenylalanine	0.05% - 0.25%
potassium sorbate A preservative	0.05% - 0.25%
sisymbrium irio seed oil A plant oil that helps soften the upper layer of the skin. Could help reduce inflammation due to high content of linolenic acid	0.05% - 0.15%
