Contains “Preservative” that Irritates Sensitive Skin—Burns Eye Area
This face wash by Whitney Jean is a clear gel with no smell so I had high hopes for it being safe for sensitive skin/areas. Unfortunately when washing near my eyes as it’s advertised as “makeup remover” it irritates my eyes a bunch so much to where it burned. It took over half an hour for the stinging/burning sensation to completely go away.<br />This prompted me to look more into the ingredient list which is shown and has a lot of things—most which are natural which is great however the last ingredient “Ethylhexylglycerin” which is a preservative and turns is not good for you especially if you have sensitive skin. I tried to include a image result of what google said but my review keeps getting flagged for it, but in short: “ethylhexylglycerin is not safe due to its performance as a contact allergen. People with sensitive skin and existing skin conditions are more likely to be impacted by products containing this ingredient”.<br />It did remove my makeup well but at the cost of a burning feeling around my eyes for over half an hour it’s not worth it if I only can clean half my face with it especially for $20…
