SKIN 1004. Madagascar Centella Tea-Trica BHA Foam
Works for
CleansingMyristic acid, Stearic acid + 8 moreCleanses gently
“This BHA foam cleanser is infused with centella asiatica, tea tree leaf water and salicylic acid to calm skin irritation and remove excess sebum and dead skin cells.”
This product works by removing dirt and oil from the surface of the skin. It uses a combination of mild cleansing agents (arachidic acid, cetearyl alcohol, glyceryl stearate, lauric acid, lauryl hydroxysultaine, myristic acid, oleic acid, palmitic acid, sodium c14-16 olefin sulfonate, stearic acid) 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 c14-16 olefin sulfonate
