What the product description says
“OI Absolute Beautifying Body Wash”
Source: Cultbeauty

This product works by removing dirt and oil from the surface of the skin. It uses a combination of mild cleansing agents (cetyl betaine, cocamidopropyl betaine, coco-glucoside, disodium laureth sulfosuccinate, glyceryl oleate, glyceryl stearate, glycol distearate, lauryl betaine, polysorbate 20, sodium cocoyl glycinate, sodium cocoyl isethionate, sodium lauroamphoacetate, sodium lauroyl methyl isethionate, sodium methyl cocoyl taurate) 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: cetyl betaine, cocamidopropyl betaine, coco-glucoside, glyceryl oleate, sodium methyl cocoyl taurate
