A Cleanser for Gentle Skin
This creamy cleanser is fragrance-free and alcohol-free, and contains nourishing ingredients like organic aloe vera, coconut oil and cucumber extract. It softly lathers and gently removes makeup and other impurities. Pick it up the next time you run to Whole Foods to restock on sprouted mung beans and pink Himalayan salt (or, more accurately, to raid the Prepared Foods department).
