CleansingLauric acid, Myristic acid + 9 moreCleanses gently
“Specially formulated to combat bad odors, this body wash boasts a refreshing and long-lasting floral fragrance.”
This product works by removing dirt and oil from the surface of the skin. It uses a combination of mild cleansing agents (cocamide dea, cocamidopropyl betaine, glycol distearate, hydroxypropyl methylcellulose, lauric acid, myristic acid, oleic acid, palmitic acid, ppg-10 glyceryl ether, 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: cocamidopropyl betaine, sodium methyl cocoyl taurate
