“Hydrating Gentle Foaming Cleanser”
This product works by removing dirt and oil from the surface of the skin. It uses a combination of mild cleansing agents (glyceryl behenate, glycol distearate, lauric acid, myristic acid, palmitic acid, sodium cocoyl glycinate, sodium lauroyl sarcosinate, stearic acid, tipa-laureth sulfate) 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.
