“Mung Bean pH-Balanced Cleansing Foam”
This product works by removing dirt and oil from the surface of the skin. It uses a combination of mild cleansing agents (hydrogenated lecithin, lauryl betaine, sodium cocoyl glycinate, sodium lauroyl glutamate) 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.

I love this product, you only need a tiny amount(less than pea sized) and it’s super foamy and smooth. Has worked wonders in conjunction with beplain oil cleanser. Doesn’t strip the skin at all, and still leaves you nice and clean.
