What the product description says
“Suitable for all skin types, this gentle soap-free formula is also made from a 100% plant-based cleansing formula. Directions Lather onto damp skin.”
Source: Feelunique

This product works by removing dirt and oil from the surface of the skin. It uses a combination of mild cleansing agents (coconut acid, decyl glucoside, sodium cocoyl glutamate, sucrose 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: decyl glucoside

Sodium cocoyl glutamateEffect: HighHelps oil and water mix together~4.1–6.2%
Sucrose cocoateEffect: High~1.5–2.3%
