What the product description says
“Cleanse and pamper your skin with the Jo Malone London Red Roses Body and Hand Wash . This luxurious hand wash gently cleanses the skin of impurities while imparting the delicate floral scent of the Jo Malone London Red Roses Cologne.”
Source: Lookfantastic

This product works by removing dirt and oil from the surface of the skin. It uses a combination of mild cleansing agents (laureth-3, laureth-7 citrate, mipa-laureth sulfate, olive oil peg-7 esters, sorbitan oleate) 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.
