What the product description says
“Skin Nourish Baby Wash With Shea & Cocoa Butter”
Source: Walgreens

This product works by removing dirt and oil from the surface of the skin. It uses a combination of mild cleansing agents (cocamidopropyl betaine, decyl glucoside, glycol distearate, laureth-4, peg-150 pentaerythrityl tetrastearate, peg-80 sorbitan laurate, ppg-2 hydroxyethyl cocamide, 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, decyl glucoside, sodium methyl cocoyl taurate
