What the product description says
“Rose Gold Rescue Gentle Foaming Cleanser”
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 (caprylyl/capryl glucoside, cocamidopropyl betaine, cocamidopropyl hydroxysultaine, peg-150 pentaerythrityl tetrastearate, peg-6 caprylic/capric glycerides, sodium lauroyl methyl isethionate, sodium lauroyl sarcosinate, xylityl sesquicaprylate) 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
