CleansingSodium cocoyl isethionate, Stearic acid + 7 moreCleanses gently
“This unique formula, enriched with Vanicream Skin Cream, moisturizes while gently cleansing the skin.”
This product works by removing dirt and oil from the surface of the skin. It uses a combination of mild cleansing agents (ceteareth-20, cetearyl alcohol, coconut acid, glyceryl stearate, peg-30 stearate, sodium cocoyl isethionate, sodium laurate, sodium lauroyl sarcosinate, 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.
