Does Ziaja Med Anti-Imperfections Cleansing Gel Work?

 
Ziaja Med Anti-Imperfections Cleansing Gel is a type of skincare product designed to be rinsed off, peeled off, or otherwise removed from the skin. Research confirming the moisturizing, anti-wrinkle, and soothing effects of such products is very limited. Therefore, we do not provide efficacy ratings for these types of skincare products.

However, you can explore the roles of specific ingredients in the Ingredients Explained section below.

#oil-free
oil-free
People with oily and acne-prone skin tend to look for products that are free from oils. Some oils are indeed strong occlusives and form an oily layer on the surface of the skin. This tag includes products that are free from all oils (including essential oils).

#alcohol-free
alcohol-free
Not all alcohols are bad for the skin, e.g. fatty alcohols are popular emollients. Some alcohols (such as alcohol denat.), however, can be dehydrating and skin-sensitizing. This tag includes products free of alcohols that have been shown not to be beneficial to the skin.

#sulfate-free
sulfate-free
Sulfates are powerful cleansing agents. However, they are thought to strip the skin of its natural oils, resulting in dryness and irritation. If you've ever encountered a problem with sulfates before, then this is the tag to look out for.

#fragrance-free
fragrance-free
Some fragrance ingredients are skin-sensitizing and may cause allergic reactions. Under trade secret law, manufacturers do not need to disclose the ingredients included in the mix called ‘Fragrance’ or ‘Parfum’, even though these ingredients may be allergenic. Products with this tag do not have ‘Fragrance’ or ‘Parfum’ in the ingredient list, however, they may still have a noticeable scent.
