Sweet potatoes, which contain antioxidants and vitamins A, C and E, are known as a beauty food that can promote healthy, glowing and even-toned skin, the company said.

The three cleansers include:

• Soothing Chamomile Complexion Facial Cleanser, which is formulated for all skin types, including delicate skin;
• Moisturizing Coconut Oil Cocoa Butter Facial Cleanser, which is for dry and combination skin; and
