Aveeno Positively Radiant Oil Free Makeup Removing Wipes
Works for
CleansingHexylene glycol, Peg-6 caprylic/capric glycerides + 3 moreCleanses gently
“Aveeno Positively Radiant Makeup Removing Face Wipes easily remove oil, dirt, bacteria, and makeup - even waterproof mascara - that can leave skin looking dull and tired.”
This product works by removing dirt and oil from the surface of the skin. It uses a combination of mild cleansing agents (carbomer, hexylene glycol, peg-4 laurate, peg-6 caprylic/capric glycerides, sucrose cocoate) 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.
