What does the product description say?
SensiCalm Cleanser is a gentle, pH-balanced formula designed specifically for sensitive and redness-prone skin.
Source: AlumierMD
This product works by removing dirt and oil from the surface of the skin. It uses a combination of mild cleansing agents (caprylic acid, caprylyl/capryl glucoside, cetyl alcohol, cocamidopropyl hydroxysultaine, disodium cocoyl glutamate, sodium cocoyl glutamate, sorbitan oleate, sucrose stearate, xanthan gum) 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.
