What the product description says
“Redness Solutions Soothing Cleanser is an extra-gentle, non-drying face wash for redness-prone skin.”
Source: Clinique

This product works by removing dirt and oil from the surface of the skin. It uses a combination of mild cleansing agents (cholesterol, sucrose stearate) 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.

Sucrose stearateEffect: HighHelps water and oil mix together~1.5–2.3%
CholesterolEffect: HighAn emollient that is naturally found in skin~1.3–2%
