This product works by removing dirt and oil from the surface of the skin. It uses a combination of mild cleansing agents (cocamidopropyl betaine, polysorbate 20, sodium lauroyl glutamate, sodium lauroyl glycinate) 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.

Even though this formulation is mild, the following cleansing agents could trigger an irritation or allergy for some people: cocamidopropyl betaine

cocamidopropyl betaine 5.4% - 8.1%

Irritation risk:

Concentration: Effectiveness: HIGH

Helps water and oil mix together. Used as a cleansing ingredient. Could be an allergen

polysorbate 20 1.2% - 1.8%

Irritation risk:

Concentration: Effectiveness: HIGH

Helps oil and water mix together

sodium lauroyl glutamate 7.7% - 11.5%

Irritation risk:

Concentration: Effectiveness: HIGH

Used as a cleansing agent. It creates foam
