What the product description says
“Innisfree My Perfumed Body Cleanser cleanses your skin from impurities and sweat while delivering rich, long-lasting, Jeju inspired scents.”
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 (cocamide mea, cocamidopropyl betaine, lauryl glucoside, sodium methyl cocoyl taurate) 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: cocamidopropyl betaine, sodium methyl cocoyl taurate

Cocamidopropyl betaineEffect: HighHelps water and oil mix together. Used as a cleansing ingredient. Could be an allergen~8.2–12.4%
Sodium methyl cocoyl taurateEffect: HighHelps oil and water mix together. Can be used as cleansing agent~3.5–5.3%
Cocamide meaEffect: High~1.6–2.4%
Lauryl glucosideEffect: HighHelps oil and water mix together~1.4–2.1%
