Works for
CleansingCetearyl alcohol, Polysorbate 60 + 4 moreCleanses gently
“Gently wash away daily build-up, impurities and excess oil, without disrupting your skin’s natural balance.”
This product works by removing dirt and oil from the surface of the skin. It uses a combination of mild cleansing agents (cetearyl alcohol, polysorbate 60, potassium cocoate, potassium oleate, stearic acid, xanthan gum) 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.
