What does the product description say?
Natural 90% Olive Cleansing Oil
Source: From product name
This product works by removing dirt and oil from the surface of the skin. It uses a combination of mild cleansing agents (olive oil peg-7 esters, peg-20 glyceryl triisostearate, peg-7 glyceryl cocoate) 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.
