Science: Fresh Cleanser Reviews by NvWah_Fresh Cleansing Balm With Lemon Oil

This is a cleanser for oily skin. The ingredient zinc gluconate is the combination of zinc with glucose (a sugar). It has antibiotics and anti-inflammatory properties and therefore may be effective against acne. Besides there is aluminum starch octenylsuccinate, which is a powder-finish anticaking agent to absorb excessive oil.

Would be better if they didn't put in fragrance.

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

1st ingredient		mentha piperita leaf water (peppermint) can have antimicrobial properties. Mild surfacant and cooling effect on the skin. Anti-irritation.
2nd ingredient		citrus aurantium amara flower water is used to adjust the pH of the product. It is also a fragrant extract that can be a skin irritant.
3rd ingredient		sodium lauryl sulfoacetate is derived from coconut and palm oils. It’s a safe, skin-friendly surfactant that creates a rich lather that effectively removes surface oil, dirt and bacteria, without stripping or drying sensitive skin. Sodium Lauryl Sulfoacetate is also hydrophilic. This means it is attracted to water, which enables it to dissolve more readily in water, thus providing superior rinseablility.
