CleansingPeg-6 caprylic/capric glycerides, Cetrimonium chloride + 1 moreCleanses gently
“A pure cleansing water that moisturizes and smoothes sensitive skin while gently cleansing and removing impurities and makeup without irritation.”
This product works by removing dirt and oil from the surface of the skin. It uses a combination of mild cleansing agents (cetrimonium chloride, peg-6 caprylic/capric glycerides, peg-60 hydrogenated castor oil) 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: cetrimonium chloride

Oil of a very fragrant pink rose used as fragrance in cosmetics. Extensive research has shown it has mixed benefits. In the pro column, inhaling this flower’s scent seems to have relaxing properties and the plant’s petals contain skin-soothing and antioxidant compounds that can benefit skin. On the flipside, the numerous chemicals that create this rose’s distinctive fragrance pose a risk of causing skin aggravation.
