Lancôme Lait Galate Confort Comforting Makeup Remover Milk
Works for
CleansingLecithin, Triethanolamine + 4 moreCleanses gently
“This emollient-rich, milky cream cleanser gently melts away makeup and impurities.”
This product works by removing dirt and oil from the surface of the skin. It uses a combination of mild cleansing agents (carbomer, disodium cocoamphodiacetate, disodium succinate, lecithin, polysorbate 20, triethanolamine) 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.
