CleansingSodium c14-16 olefin sulfonate, Decyl glucoside + 1 moreCleanses gently
“But what truly sets this product apart is its ability to remove excess sebum, impurities, and even heavy makeup without a trace of residue.”
This product works by removing dirt and oil from the surface of the skin. It uses a combination of mild cleansing agents (coco-glucoside, decyl glucoside, sodium c14-16 olefin sulfonate) 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: coco-glucoside, decyl glucoside, sodium c14-16 olefin sulfonate
