What does the product description say?
Vitamin C Cleanser & Moisturizer Duo
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 (cetearyl olivate, cetyl alcohol, cocamidopropyl hydroxysultaine, coco-glucoside, decyl glucoside, glyceryl caprylate, glyceryl oleate, lauryl glucoside, sorbitan oleate decylglucoside crosspolymer, sorbitan olivate, sunflower seed oil glycerides, xanthan gum) 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, decyl glucoside, glyceryl oleate
