“What it is: A creamy cleanser that removes impurities, dirt, oil, and makeup for calmed and refreshed skin and hydrates dry skin that occurs with menopause.”
This product works by removing dirt and oil from the surface of the skin. It uses a combination of mild cleansing agents (cetearyl olivate, cetyl alcohol, sodium methyl cocoyl taurate, sorbitan olivate, sorbitan palmitate, xanthan gum) 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
