CleansingMyristic acid, Lauric acid + 5 moreCleanses gently
“Creamy facial cleanser lathers up into a rich foam that removes dirt, makeup and excess oil while leaving skin subtly moisturized with its glycerin, camellia japonica flower, camellia sinensis leaf and centella asiatica extracts.”
This product works by removing dirt and oil from the surface of the skin. It uses a combination of mild cleansing agents (lauric acid, myristic acid, palmitic acid, sodium lauroyl glutamate, sorbitan olivate, stearic acid) 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.
