Pacifica Beauty Coconut Cream Body Wash
Works for
CleansingCocamidopropyl betaine, Sodium c14-16 olefin sulfonate + 1 moreCleanses gently
“Packed with hydrating ingredients to gently cleanse your skin (without ever leaving it feeling dry or tight), this body wash is infused with a relaxing blend of fresh coconut and vanilla — set to send you to a tropical paradise with every use.”
This product works by removing dirt and oil from the surface of the skin. It uses a combination of mild cleansing agents (cocamidopropyl betaine, sodium c14-16 olefin sulfonate, sodium laurylglucosides hydroxypropylsulfonate) 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: cocamidopropyl betaine, sodium c14-16 olefin sulfonate
