“If you are looking for an effective, gentle and easy to use cleanser and makeup remover that can also reveal your skin’s glow, try Garnier Micellar Rose Water Cleanse & Glow.”
This product works by removing dirt and oil from the surface of the skin. It uses a combination of mild cleansing agents (disodium cocoamphodiacetate, hexylene glycol, peg-40 hydrogenated castor oil, poloxamer 184) 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.
