Thank You Farmer Pollufree 5.5 pH-Balancing Cleansing Foam
Works for
CleansingSodium cocoyl isethionate, Glycol distearate + 4 moreCleanses gently
“This foamy pH-balancing face cleanser thoroughly cleanses skin from impurities and fine dust while maintaining its hydration levels.”
This product works by removing dirt and oil from the surface of the skin. It uses a combination of mild cleansing agents (glycol distearate, hydrogenated lecithin, potassium cocoate, potassium cocoyl glycinate, sodium cocoyl isethionate, sodium methyl cocoyl taurate) 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
