Embryolisse Lait-Creme Concentre Sensitive Skin
Works for
CleansingGlycine soja protein, Cetearyl alcohol + 2 moreCleanses gently
“Formulated without fragrance and with 98% natural ingredients, the loved lotion can be used as a makeup primer, a moisturiser, mask, or makeup remover, leaving the skin feeling soothed and silky after every use, even on the most fragile, sensitive, and reactive skin types.”
This product works by removing dirt and oil from the surface of the skin. It uses a combination of mild cleansing agents (cera alba, cetearyl alcohol, cetyl phosphate, glycine soja protein) 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.
