RAWQUEST Echinacea Calming Moisture Cleansing Foam
Works for
CleansingLauric acid, Myristic acid + 5 moreCleanses gently
“A cleansing foam that effectively removes excessive dead skin cells and skin impurities.”
This product works by removing dirt and oil from the surface of the skin. It uses a combination of mild cleansing agents (capric acid, cocamidopropyl betaine, lauric acid, lauryl hydroxysultaine, myristic acid, palmitic acid, potassium cocoyl glycinate) 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
ExfoliationNo ingredient credited for this claimNot delivered
“Contains Hyaluronic Acid derivative scrubs that provides mild scrub care of dead skin cells.”
This product does not contain effective exfoliating ingredients. It might be able to deliver physical exfoliation, that is scrub off some of the dead cells on the surface of the skin. We do not recommend physical exfoliation, because it is not uniform (some bits of skin can get exfoliated too much while others not at all). It can also traumatize the skin and aggrevate acne and other skin conditions.
