WIMJ summary for cleansing

This product works by removing dirt and oil from the surface of the skin. It uses a combination of mild cleansing agents (cetylpyridinium chloride, coco-betaine, polyglyceryl-6 caprylate) 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: coco-betaine

Ingredient	Effectiveness	Concentration	Irritancy
cetylpyridinium chloride	HIGH
coco-betaine	HIGH
polyglyceryl-6 caprylate	HIGH

Ingredient	Effectiveness	Concentration	Irritancy
pantothenic acid	MEDIUM
