Science: Bliss Cleanser Reviews by NvWah_Bliss Fabulous Foaming Face Wash

The formulation makes this a rather irritating product. Besides water, the second abundant ingredient of this product is sodium laureth sulfate. It is a detergent component for its strong cleansing and foaming effect. When applied to skin directly it could be extremely drying and cause skin sentisization.

The fourth ingredient is cocamide DEA. DEA is diethanolamine, a chemical that is used as a foaming and stablizing agent in cosmetics. By itself DEA is not harmful but it has the potential to react with other ingredients in the formula to form an extremely potent carcinogen called nitrosodiethanolamine (NDEA). NDEA can be absorbed through the skin. Therefore it’s best to avoid products containing DEA. Always rinse off thoroughly. Use cold water to reduce the absorption.

It does contain plant-derived moisturizing and acne-fighting factors.

Why do they have to put fragrance in there? Totally unnecessary.

Safety alert: Stay Away
review based on scientific information of the product ingredients.

1st ingredient		is water.
2nd ingredient		sodium laureth sulfate is a strong cleansing and foaming agent often used in detergent. When applied topically it could be extremely drying and cause skin sentisization.
3rd ingredient		glycerin transports water from the environment and from the lower layers of skin (dermis) to surface skin (epidermis). It softens the skin. Glycerin is a substance naturally present in skin which helps maintain the epidermis and prevent dryness or scaling.
4th ingredient		cocamidopropyl betaine is a medium strength surfactant which most often does not irritate skin or mucous membranes.
