How it works

The product works by utilizing a combination of cleansing agents like Disodium Laureth Sulfosuccinate and Sodium Lauryl Sulfoacetate to effectively remove dirt, makeup, and pollutants from the skin. Cocamidopropyl Hydroxysultaine helps to boost the foam for better spreadability and coverage. PEG-150 Pentaerythrityl Tetrastearate acts as a thickening agent to provide the desired texture of the cleanser. Camellia Oleifera Leaf Extract is included for its antioxidant properties that help protect the skin from environmental damage. Glycerin and Butylene Glycol function as humectants, drawing moisture into the skin to keep it hydrated. Panthenol adds further moisturizing properties, helping to maintain the skin’s hydration balance and prevent dryness.
