โ€œExperience a unique shower experience with NEW Dove Body Wash Mousse with essential Rose Oil.โ€
Source: Walgreens

This product works by removing dirt and oil from the surface of the skin. It uses a combination of mild cleansing agents (cocamidopropyl betaine, polysorbate 20, sodium lauroyl glutamate, sodium lauroyl glycinate) 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 lauroyl glutamateEffect: HighUsed as a cleansing agent. It creates foam~7.3โ€“10.9%
Sodium lauroyl glycinateEffect: High~3.2โ€“4.8%
Cocamidopropyl betaineEffect: HighHelps water and oil mix together. Used as a cleansing ingredient. Could be an allergen~2.7โ€“4.1%
Polysorbate 20Effect: HighHelps oil and water mix together~0.85โ€“1.3%
Stearic acidEffect: High, below effective doseHelps oil and water mix together and works as an emollient~0.35โ€“0.8%
