Gentle Foaming Cleanser with Tamarind For Combination to Oily Skin
Source: 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 (glyceryl behenate, glycol distearate, hydroxypropyl methylcellulose, lauric acid, myristic acid, sodium lauroyl sarcosinate, stearic acid, tipa-laureth sulfate) 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.

This product might help exfoliate the skin with tartaric acid, but This ingredient is not the most effective.
An AHA (alpha-hydroxy acid). It oxidizes quickly which makes it less effective in skincare formulations. It can support skin's barrier and moisture levels
