“Moringa Mild Cleansing Foam”
This product works by removing dirt and oil from the surface of the skin. It uses a combination of mild cleansing agents (cetearyl alcohol, coco-betaine, coco-glucoside, coconut acid, disodium coco-glucoside citrate, glyceryl stearate, sodium c14-16 olefin sulfonate, sodium cocoyl glutamate, sodium cocoyl isethionate, sodium methyl cocoyl taurate) 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-betaine, coco-glucoside, sodium c14-16 olefin sulfonate, sodium methyl cocoyl taurate
ExfoliationSide benefit the brand mentions · Capryloyl salicylic acidWorks well
“Formulated with amino acids, this gentle cleansing foam cleanses away impurities and dead skin cells with its dense, rich foam.”
This product can help exfoliate the skin. In other words, it helps break down the bonds between dead cells on the surface of the skin and speed up the skin turnover. Skin often appears softer and brighter after exfoliation, but overdoing it can result in disrupted skin barrier. The following ingredient is doing the exfoliating job in this product: capryloyl salicylic acid.
