Holika Holika Sparkling Lemon Bubble Cleanser
Works for
CleansingTea-lauryl sulfate, Cocamidopropyl betaine + 2 moreCleanses gently
“Effectively washing away traces of makeup residue, excess oils and impurities, the cleanser leaves the skin feeling clean and balanced.”
This product works by removing dirt and oil from the surface of the skin. It uses a combination of mild cleansing agents (caprylyl/capryl glucoside, cocamidopropyl betaine, tea-cocoyl glutamate, tea-lauryl sulfate) 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: cocamidopropyl betaine, tea-lauryl sulfate
