“Eucalyptus Peppermint Body Wash”
This product works by removing dirt and oil from the surface of the skin. It uses a combination of mild cleansing agents (cocamidopropyl betaine, decyl glucoside, glycol stearate, polyglyceryl-10 laurate, sodium c14-16 olefin sulfonate, sodium cocoyl glutamate, sodium laurylglucosides hydroxypropylsulfonate) 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: cocamidopropyl betaine, decyl glucoside, sodium c14-16 olefin sulfonate
ExfoliationNot advertised by the brand · Gluconic acid, AllantoinWorks well
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: gluconic acid.
Anti-blemishNot advertised by the brand · Gluconic acid, AllantoinMay help
This product might be able to help reduce blemishes and clogged pores because it contains gluconic acid.
