Science: Philosophy Moisturizer Reviews by NvWah_Philosophy Purity Made Simple High Foaming Daily Cleanser

This is a moisturizing yet soothing cleanser. But on the down side, it contains quite a lot of fragrant oil and extract that can cause skin irritation.

As said on the label, it doesn’t contain paraben preservative. However there are other two preservatives in there, methylchloroisothiazolinone and methylisothiazolinone. They are only intended to be used in rinse-off products because they are too irritating when left on skin too long. Rinse off completely whenever used.

Also there are light sensitive ingredients in the product. Better use this only at night time.

Safety alert: Cautious
