What the product description says

“Cleansing Cream Sake”

Source: Yesstyle

This product works by removing dirt and oil from the surface of the skin. It uses a combination of mild cleansing agents (carbomer, glyceryl behenate/eicosadioate, potassium myristate, sorbitan sesquiisostearate, stearic acid, sucrose stearate) 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.

Sucrose stearateEffect: HighHelps water and oil mix together~1.4–2.1%

Stearic acidEffect: HighHelps oil and water mix together and works as an emollient~0.8–1.2%

Sorbitan sesquiisostearateEffect: High~0.45–1%

Potassium myristateEffect: High~0.15–0.6%
