What does the product description say?
Houttuynia Cordata Hyaluron Soothing Pore Cleansing Foam
Source: Lila Beauty
This product works by removing dirt and oil from the surface of the skin. It uses a combination of mild cleansing agents (cholesterol, disodium cocoamphodiacetate, glyceryl stearate, hexylene glycol, hydrogenated lecithin, lauryl betaine, sodium cocoyl glycinate, sodium lauroyl glutamate) 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.
