“Gentle Cleansing Milk”
This product works by removing dirt and oil from the surface of the skin. It uses a combination of mild cleansing agents (cetearyl alcohol, disodium cocoyl glutamate, glyceryl stearate citrate, hydrogenated lecithin, hydrogenated palm glycerides, potassium cetyl phosphate, sodium cocoyl glutamate, xanthan gum) 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.
