Neutrogena Ultra-Soft Makeup Remover Wipes for Waterproof Makeup
Works for
CleansingIsohexadecane, Hexylene glycol + 3 moreCleanses gently
“Ultra-soft micellar cleansing wipes, with hyaluronic acid, gently and effectively remove makeup & lift away dirt, oil & sunscreen, leaving skin refreshingly clean and hydrated with no heavy residue.”
This product works by removing dirt and oil from the surface of the skin. It uses a combination of mild cleansing agents (hexylene glycol, isohexadecane, peg-6 caprylic/capric glycerides, polysorbate 20, sucrose cocoate) 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.
