The present invention relates to a method for cleaning skin having impaired barrier function. The process of the present invention comprises at least one selected from the group consisting of (i) at least one low molecular weight non-crosslinked linear acrylic copolymer, and (ii) anionic surfactants, amphoteric surfactants, and combinations of two or more thereof. By applying to the skin a cleaning composition comprising one surfactant and having a ΔST 65 greater than about 2 mN / m, a cleaning composition is used that has the property of at least disturbing or interacting with the skin barrier. |
