  Ingredient Notes

  Irritant Alert! Not a Malassezia food — a detergent, not a lipid. It is here for barrier damage: dermatology uses SLS as its standard irritant control, and water loss through the skin stays raised ten days after a single exposure. A weakened barrier makes fungal acne harder to settle.
