What the product description says
“Intimate Care Cleansing Wash Tvål för underlivet”
From product name

This product works by removing dirt and oil from the surface of the skin. It uses a combination of mild cleansing agents (cocamidopropyl betaine, disodium laureth sulfosuccinate, laureth-3, peg-150 distearate, peg-7 glyceryl cocoate) 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.

Even though this formulation is mild, the following cleansing agents could trigger an irritation or allergy for some people: cocamidopropyl betaine

Disodium laureth sulfosuccinateEffect: High~9.2–13.9%
Laureth-3Effect: High~3.4–5.2%
Cocamidopropyl betaineEffect: HighHelps water and oil mix together. Used as a cleansing ingredient. Could be an allergen~2.1–3.2%
Peg-7 glyceryl cocoateEffect: HighHelps oils and water mix together and works as a cleansing agent~2–3%
Peg-150 distearateEffect: HighHelps oil and water mix together~0.85–1.3%
