“Gentle Cleanser”
This product works by removing dirt and oil from the surface of the skin. It uses a combination of mild cleansing agents (coco-glucoside, disodium cocoamphodiacetate, disodium laureth sulfosuccinate, hexylene glycol, lauryl glucoside, lauryl hydroxysultaine, quillaja saponaria bark extract, sodium cocoyl isethionate) 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-glucoside

Does a pretty good job of removing eye makeup. Are use it as the second step in my double cleanse routine. Or alone if I’m not wearing any make up.
