Our Ultra Gentle Cleanser is pH-balanced, dermatologically-tested and free of Parabens, Phenoxyethanol, soap and a whole lot of other ingredients we can’t list here.
After we nailed the base (if we do say so ourselves), we added in some Ceramides. Ceramides are an amazing ingredient and a key component of the skin that Eczema or Dermatitis sufferers lack. The function of Ceramides is to retain moisture within the skin and act as the building blocks for a healthy protective barrier. Without Ceramides, the barrier function weakens, and a compromised barrier means vital moisture can escape and external irritants, pollutants, and allergens can get in.
A compromised barrier and a lack of hydration within the skin can often lead to flare-ups. Our Ultra Gentle Cleanser cleanses the skin thoroughly and gently, while helping to restore Ceramides into the skin to help prevent that.
This Ultra Gentle Cleanser was specifically designed for eczema-prone, hypersensitive or fragile skin, but because of its extremely gentle nature, it’s suitable for every skin type and every age, no exceptions. And not only is it one of the most skin-friendly cleansers on the market it is one of the most environmentally friendly too. Through its unique fermentation process of sugar cane/grain, low energy consumption for manufacturing and bio-degradable ingredients.
The new Ultra Gentle Cleanser with Ceramides pairs perfectly with MooGoo’s Eczema & Psoriasis Cream (AUSTL 335464) which has a solid reputation as a follow-on treatment to steroidal creams.
