What the product description says
“Deeply Nourishing Jojoba Cleansing Oil O4”
Source: Facetheory UK

This product works by removing dirt and oil from the surface of the skin. It uses a combination of mild cleansing agents (glyceryl caprylate, glyceryl citrate/lactate/linoleate/oleate, lecithin) 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.

Glyceryl citrate/lactate/linoleate/oleateEffect: High~3.7–5.5%
Glyceryl caprylateEffect: HighAn emollient that can also help water and oil mix together, as well as prevent bacteria growth in products~1.7–2.6%
LecithinEffect: HighUsed mostly for creating emulsions - helping oil and water mix together. Helps soften the upper layer of the skin~1.6–2.4%
