Works for
CleansingPeg-6 caprylic/capric glycerides, Peg-40 hydrogenated castor oil + 1 moreCleanses gently
“Based on micelle molecules, that releases cleansing agents upon contact with the skin leaving it soft, clean and moisturised.”
This product works by removing dirt and oil from the surface of the skin. It uses a combination of mild cleansing agents (cetrimonium bromide, peg-40 hydrogenated castor oil, peg-6 caprylic/capric glycerides) 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.
