Formulation view Gentle cleanser using lauryl glucoside, disodium laureth sulfosuccinate, and betaine surfactants. Features salicylic acid and tea tree oil for exfoliation and sebum control, supported by sodium PCA and panthenol for hydration. Preserved with phenoxyethanol. Best for oily, combination, or congested skin. Formulator’s view: The combination of salicylic acid and tea tree oil requires careful pH management. The inclusion of magnesium salts suggests optimization for hard water, though balancing potential dryness is key to maintaining the barrier.
