CleansingPentaerythrityl tetraisostearate, Hexylene glycolCleanses gently
“This innovative product boasts a silky gel formula that’s perfect for touch-ups and on the go makeup removal.”
This product works by removing dirt and oil from the surface of the skin. It uses a combination of mild cleansing agents (hexylene glycol, pentaerythrityl tetraisostearate) 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.
