CleansingPeg-6 caprylic/capric glycerides, Peg-7 glyceryl cocoate + 1 moreCleanses gently
“This no-rinse micellar solution thoroughly cleanses to remove impurities and make-up on the face, lips, and eyes.”
This product works by removing dirt and oil from the surface of the skin. It uses a combination of mild cleansing agents (peg-6 caprylic/capric glycerides, peg-7 glyceryl cocoate, poloxamer 184) 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.
