Works for
CleansingSodium cocoate, Stearic acidCleanses gently
“Terra Beauty Bars Marble Activated Charcoal Facial Bar with Brazilian Yellow Clay & Sweet Orange essential oil is a solid facial cleanser that gently cleanses and purifies skin.”
This product works by removing dirt and oil from the surface of the skin. It uses a combination of mild cleansing agents (sodium cocoate, 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.
