How it works

This facial cleanser uses Glycolic Acid, an exfoliating agent, to help remove dead skin cells and promote a smoother skin surface. Ammonium Lauryl Sulfate acts as a cleansing agent, enabling the removal of dirt and impurities. Cocamidopropyl Betaine, a surfactant, assists in foaming and cleansing without stripping the skin's natural oils. Glycerin serves as a humectant, retaining moisture in the skin, while Glycol Stearate functions as an emulsifier to maintain product consistency. Sodium Hydroxide and Citric Acid adjust the pH levels of the formulation, ensuring it remains balanced and effective. Diazolidinyl Urea acts as a preservative, extending the product's shelf life.
