What the product description says
“Natural Face Wash Soap - 2 Types”
Source: Yesstyle

This product works by removing dirt and oil from the surface of the skin. It uses a combination of mild cleansing agents (cocamidopropyl betaine, palm acid, palm kernel acid, sodium oleate, xanthan gum) 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

Sodium oleateEffect: HighHelps oil and water mix together and create a thicker product consistency~10–12.2%
Palm acidEffect: High~4.6–5.6%
Palm kernel acidEffect: High~3.2–3.9%
Cocamidopropyl betaineEffect: HighHelps water and oil mix together. Used as a cleansing ingredient. Could be an allergen~2.6–3.1%
Xanthan gumEffect: HighUsed to create a thicker product consistency~0.25–0.45%
