What the product description says
“Tea Tree Cica Trouble Cleansing Foam”

It uses a combination of mild cleansing agents (coco-glucoside, glyceryl stearate, lauric acid, myristic acid, palmitic acid, sorbitan olivate, stearic acid) 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.
