Purito SEOUL From Green Deep Foaming Cleanser
Works for
CleansingCoco-betaine, Sodium methyl cocoyl taurate + 5 moreCleanses gently
“A pH balancing foam cleanser that removes impurities and makeup residue while fortifying the skin barrier with centella extract.”
This product works by removing dirt and oil from the surface of the skin. It uses a combination of mild cleansing agents (coco-betaine, glyceryl stearate, lauric acid, potassium cocoate, potassium cocoyl glycinate, sodium cocoyl isethionate, sodium methyl cocoyl taurate) 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, sodium methyl cocoyl taurate
