CleansingPeg-6 caprylic/capric glycerides, Decyl glucoside + 3 moreCleanses gently
“A pH 5.5 slightly acidic cleansing water which mildly removes makeup, fine dusts and impurities while moisturizing skin, leaving skin hydrated, refreshed and healthy.”
This product works by removing dirt and oil from the surface of the skin. It uses a combination of mild cleansing agents (cholesterol, decyl glucoside, glyceryl caprylate, peg-40 hydrogenated castor oil, peg-6 caprylic/capric glycerides) 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: decyl glucoside
