Works for
CleansingDisodium cocoamphodiacetate, Potassium cocoyl glycinate + 6 moreCleanses gently
“This creamy cleanser gently rids skin of makeup residues and dirt without stripping it of much-needed moisture.”
This product works by removing dirt and oil from the surface of the skin. It uses a combination of mild cleansing agents (carbomer, disodium cocoamphodiacetate, disodium cocoyl glutamate, glycol distearate, hexylene glycol, potassium cocoate, potassium cocoyl glycinate, 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: sodium methyl cocoyl taurate
