What does the product description say?

"Sebiaclear Gentle Foaming Gel"

From product name

WIMJ summary

This product works by removing dirt and oil from the surface of the skin. It uses a combination of mild cleansing agents (coco-betaine, disodium laureth sulfosuccinate, peg-120 methyl glucose dioleate, peg-7 glyceryl cocoate, sodium laureth sulfate, 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: coco-betaine, peg-7 glyceryl cocoate, sodium laureth sulfate

Ingredient	Effectiveness	Concentration	Irritancy
coco-betaine	HIGH
disodium laureth sulfosuccinate	HIGH
peg-120 methyl glucose dioleate	HIGH

WIMJ summary

This product can help exfoliate the skin. In other words, it helps break down the bonds between dead cells on the surface of the skin and speed up the skin turnover. Skin often appears softer and brighter after exfoliation, but overdoing it can result in disrupted skin barrier. The following ingredient is doing the exfoliating job in this product: gluconolactone.

Ingredient	Effectiveness	Concentration	Irritancy
gluconolactone	HIGH
lactic acid	HIGH
sea salt	LOW

Ingredients by volume

Ingredient	Estimated concentration
water Plain old water	45% - 55%
disodium laureth sulfosuccinate	10% - 12%
coco-betaine Helps oil and water mix together and works as a cleansing agent. Can be allergenic	5.5% - 6.8%
peg-7 glyceryl cocoate	2.8% - 3.5%
glycerin One of the best moisturizing ingredients. Naturally present in skin. It attracts water to the upper layer of the skin working as a humectant	2.4% - 3%
sodium laureth sulfate Works as a foaming cleansing agent	2.1% - 2.5%
gluconolactone A polyhydroxy acid (PHA) that helps shed the dead cells from the skin surface revealing smoother skin. Is believed to be genter than AHAs. It helps attract water to the upper layer of the skin and can stimulate production of skin's own hyaluronic acid resulting in improved hydration levels. It has been shown to be helpful against acne and clogged pores if used consistently (e.g over a period of 12 weeks) in high enough concentration. It can help reduce fine lines and wrinkles and improve skin tone with long-term application. Can help neutralize free radicals	1.5% - 1.9%
peg-120 methyl glucose dioleate	1.3% - 1.6%
calcium gluconate Helps attract water to the upper layer of the skin and helps to improve appearance of the product	1.1% - 1.4%
sarcosine Helps to enhance the penetration of other ingredients and attract water to the upper layer of the skin	0.75% - 1.1%
butylene glycol Used to create a nice product texture and help delivery of other ingredients. Might be somewhat helpful in attracting water to the upper layer of the skin	0.6% - 0.9%
lactic acid An exfoliating and moisturizing alpha-hydroxy acid (AHA). Typically causes less irritation than other AHAs, for example, glycolic acid. At high concentrations (about 15%), lactic acid can help reduce lines and wrinkles. Recent studies show that lactic acid can support the "good" bacteria living on skin's surface (healthy skin microbiom)	0.5% - 0.75%
pentylene glycol Used to preserve products, dissolve other ingredients and create a nice product texture	0.45% - 0.7%
sea salt Used to thicken the product formulation and might help to add minerals to the surface of the skin. It is used in scrubs as a physical exfoliant. Can increase sensitivity to other ingredients if left on the skin or used in high concentration	0.25% - 0.5%
sodium hydroxide Used to adjust the product's pH	0.2% - 0.35%
xanthan gum Used to create a thicker product consistency	0.15% - 0.25%
sodium benzoate A preservative	0.1% - 0.2%
parfum An aromatic blend of unspecified and possibly irritating ingredients	0.05% - 0.1%
