Soy Milk Gentle Cleansing Lotion

Jojoba oil's wax-ester structure cleanses without clogging pores, and pairing it with soy milk's proteins gives this cleanser a slightly firming quality on top of its cleansing function, a good fit for combination or oily skin that still wants some anti-aging benefit from a daily cleanser.
