“Cera MD Repair Cream Wash”
This product works by removing dirt and oil from the surface of the skin. It uses a combination of mild cleansing agents (candida bombicola/glucose/methyl rapeseedate ferment, caprylamide mea, cetearyl olivate, disodium cocoamphodiacetate, hexylene glycol, hydrogenated lecithin, potassium cocoyl glycinate, sodium cocoyl isethionate, sorbitan olivate) 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.
