What the product description says
“Gentle Ceramide Gel Cleanser”
Source: Fitglow beauty

This product works by removing dirt and oil from the surface of the skin. It uses a combination of mild cleansing agents (coco-glucoside, glyceryl oleate, lauryl glucoside, polyglyceryl-3 caprate, sodium coco-sulfate, sorbitan caprylate) 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: coco-glucoside, glyceryl oleate

Lauryl glucosideEffect: HighHelps oil and water mix together~7.2–10.9%
Sodium coco-sulfateEffect: High~4–6%
Coco-glucosideEffect: HighUsed as a cleansing agent (surfactant) in cleansers. Helps water and oil mix together in lotions. Can be irritating~3.6–5.4%

Polyglyceryl-3 caprateEffect: HighHelps oil and water mix together~1.3–2%
Sorbitan caprylateEffect: HighHelps oil and water mix together~1–1.6%
