What the product description says
“Gently lift away makeup‚ dirt and oil with this effective herbal formula.”
Source: Earth Science

This product works by removing dirt and oil from the surface of the skin. It uses a combination of mild cleansing agents (decyl glucoside, disodium cocoamphodiacetate, polysorbate 60) 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: decyl glucoside

Decyl glucosideEffect: HighHelps oil and water mix together. Can be irritating~3.4–5%
Disodium cocoamphodiacetateEffect: HighHelps oil and water mix together and works as a cleansing agent~2.2–3.3%
Polysorbate 60Effect: HighHelps oil and water mix together~0.1–0.4%
