Benefits

• Gentle Formula: Does not irritate or strip the skin of its natural oils, maintaining the skin’s moisture balance.

• Versatile Use: Can be used with or without water, making it convenient for different skin routines and situations.
• pH-Balanced: Helps maintain the skin’s natural pH balance, which is essential for protecting the skin barrier.

Side Effects

• Mild Irritation: Though rare, some individuals may experience mild irritation, redness, or dryness, especially if they have extremely sensitive skin or an allergic reaction to an ingredient.
• Residue: Some users feel that the cleanser leaves a slight residue on the skin, which might not be ideal for those with oily skin types.
• Lack of Deep Cleaning: While gentle, it may not be effective at deeply cleansing very oily or heavily made-up skin without a secondary cleanser.
• Allergic Reactions: Although it is formulated for sensitive skin, there is still a small possibility of allergic reactions, such as itching, swelling, or a rash, particularly if the person is sensitive to any ingredient in the product.
