What the product description says
“A self-foaming facial cleanser that infuses soothing ampoule to calm skin irritation.”
Source: Yesstyle

This product works by removing dirt and oil from the surface of the skin. It uses a combination of mild cleansing agents (cocamide dea, peg-7 glyceryl cocoate, potassium cocoyl glycinate, tea-cocoyl glutamate) and should be able to cleanse the skin gently. Still keep in mind that any cleansing can disrupt the skin barrier, and most people do not need to cleanse their skin more than once per day.

Tea-cocoyl glutamateEffect: High~2.8–4.1%
Potassium cocoyl glycinateEffect: High~2.1–3.1%
Peg-7 glyceryl cocoateEffect: HighHelps oils and water mix together and works as a cleansing agent~1.7–2.5%
Cocamide deaEffect: High~1.3–1.9%
