“Facial Cleansers & Washes Orange Flower Facial Wash”
This product works by removing dirt and oil from the surface of the skin. It uses a combination of mild cleansing agents (cetearyl glucoside, lauryl betaine, sodium cocoamphoacetate, 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.
