What does the product description say?
Can also be used to remove make-up but is gentle and won’t hurt the delicate eye area. Helps to prevent break-outs and acne.
salix alba bark extract
0.5% -
0.8%
Irritation risk:
Concentration: Effectiveness:
LOW
A plant extract that can help neutralize free radicals in skin. It contains a compound salicin that can theoretically be converted into salicylic acid that, in turn, helps reduce inflammation in skin, but the evidence of effectiveness in skin is lacking and the extract is usually not used in a concentration that would enable an exfoliating effect
