Naturally Serious Major Moisture Gentle Cream Cleanser
Works for
CleansingSodium cocoyl isethionate, Glyceryl stearate se + 4 moreCleanses gently
“This creamy cleanser melts away makeup, excess oil and impurities with Coconut Oil and hydrates with Squalane.”
This product works by removing dirt and oil from the surface of the skin. It uses a combination of mild cleansing agents (cetearyl alcohol, glyceryl caprylate, glyceryl stearate se, sodium cocoyl isethionate, stearic acid, 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.

“Pomegranate Enzyme gently exfoliates to help brighten the look of dullness, while Bisabolol helps soothe the look of dry skin.”
