Learn more about WaterCocamidopropyl Betaine is a fatty acid created by mixing similar compounds in coconut oil and dimethylaminopropylamine, a compound with two amino groups.
This ingredient is a surfactant and cleanser. It helps gather the dirt, pollutants, and other impurities in your skin to be washed away. It also helps thicken a product and make the texture more creamy.
Being created from coconut oil means Cocamidopropyl Betaine is hydrating for the skin.
While Cocamidopropyl Betaine was believed to be an allergen, a study from 2012 disproved this. It found two compounds in unpure Cocamidopropyl Betaine to be the irritants: aminoamide and 3-dimethylaminopropylamine. High-grade and pure Cocamidopropyl Betaine did not induce allergic reactions during this study.

Ceramides are intercellular lipids naturally found in our skin that bonds dead skin cells together to create a barrier. They are known for their ability to hold water and thus are a great ingredient for dry skin.
Ceramides are an important building block for our skin barrier. A stronger barrier helps the skin look more firm and hydrated. By bolstering the skin ceramides act as a barrier against irritating ingredients. This can help with inflammation as well.
If you would like to eat ceramides, sweet potatoes contain a small amount.

It's okay I guess? Start slow mga lovelies, so far, my acne are drying for the first 3 weeks pa, not irritating so far.
Overall, good beginner SA cleanser for one day use only, preferably at night! Don't over exfoliate your skin!
For the PIH and PIE, I'm still waiting for 6 weeks, I'll update my reviewe!
very drying and leaves your skin with a tight feeling (as expected from a cleanser with 2% salicylic acid) but it works great as an "exfoliant" to use twice or thrice a week. very good alternative to other harsher exfoliants like toners and such. i think it's just enough if you're working with acne like inflamed papules.
i've been using it like that for a few weeks now and have seen good Show more
