What does the product description say?
Milky Mushroom Gentle Cleansing Oil
Source: Recreate Yourself
This product works by removing dirt and oil from the surface of the skin. It uses a combination of mild cleansing agents (olive oil polyglyceryl-6 esters, polyglyceryl-6 pentaoleate, sorbitan oleate decylglucoside crosspolymer) 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.
Helps oil and water mix together. Used as a cleansing agent
