3. A facial cleanser is a skincare product used to
remove make-up, dead skin cells, oil, dirt, and
other types of pollutants from the skin, helping to
keep pores clear and prevent skin conditions such
as acne.
Most of the environmental impurities and cosmetic
products our skin comes in contact with are not water
soluble, so washing the skin with water isn’t enough
to remove them. Skin cleansers remove dirt, sebum,
oil and dead skin cells—ideally without damaging or
irritating the skin.
Remember, it’s important to cleanse your skin
every night, but also in the morning too, to remove
any toxins your skin eliminates during the night.

4. How do cleanser work?
The normal pH of the skin is between 4.5
and 6.5. When you cleanse your skin,
there is an interaction that occurs
between the cleanser, the skin’s moisture
barrier and the skin’s pH. Soaps contain
harsh surfactants that can alter the skin
barrier and increase skin pH—increasing
the potential for dryness and irritation.
Soap-free gel, cream and foam cleansers
are formulated to be as effective, but
gentler, causing less disruption to the
skin barrier and minimal change to skin
pH.
13. Is a foaming ingredient derived from
coconut oil and which is friendly to the
environment.
It is used as a foaming agent and to
form part of the foaming base and has

an anti-irritant (protects skin/scalp
from irritation and dryness) and anti-
microbial agent.
Cocamidopropylbetainamide MEA

14. -Is an antiwrinkle and pigmentation-fighting ingredient
-Derived from milk, lactic acid belongs to a class of anti-aging ingredients called
alpha-hydroxy acids (AHAs)
-It removes the top layer of skin (epidermis)
-Other benefits for lactic acid include improved skin tone and reduced pore
appearance.
-However, unlike AHAs such as glycolic acid, lactic acid is a bit milder. This
makes a lactic acid peel a better choice for sensitive skin.
Lactic acid
15. Panthenol
-Panthenol, or provitamin B5, is the alcohol form of vitamin B5.
Since it’s a provitamin, your body technically converts panthenol
into vitamin B5 (AKA pantothenic acid) as soon as it’s applied
topically.
-In topical cosmetics, product manufacturers often use panthenol
as a moisturizer. But it’s also included in many cosmetics as a
softening, soothing, and anti-irritant agent. It also helps your skin
build up a barrier against irritation and water loss.

-Its main job in skincare products is to moisturize the skin. It’s a

onto it. There is also research showing that panthenol can help our skin to
produce more lovely lipids that are important for a strong and healthy skin
barrier.
17. Sodium Hydroxide
Is an inorganic compound used to control the pH levels or
serve as a buffering agent in cosmetics and personal care
products. It was historically used in the formulation of
soaps, but is currently seen in a variety of formulas,
including bath products, cleansing products, fragrances,
foot powders, hair dyes and colors, makeup, nail
products, personal cleanliness products, shampoos,
shaving products, depilatories, skin care products, and
suntan products, as well as chemical hair straighteners
and hair wave sets
18. phenoxyethanol
In perfumes, fragrances, soaps, and
cleansers, phenoxyethanol works as a
stabilizer. In other cosmetics, it's used as
an antibacterial and/or a preservative to
prevent products from losing their
potency or spoiling. When combined with
another chemical, some evidence indicates
that it's effective at reducing acne
