What the product description says
“Clean and Calm Facial Cleanser”
Source: Lookfantastic

This product works by removing dirt and oil from the surface of the skin. It uses a combination of mild cleansing agents (carbomer, cocamidopropyl betaine, decyl glucoside, peg-40 hydrogenated castor oil, peg-7 glyceryl cocoate) 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

Cocamidopropyl betaineEffect: HighHelps water and oil mix together. Used as a cleansing ingredient. Could be an allergen~8.4–12.7%
Decyl glucosideEffect: HighHelps oil and water mix together. Can be irritating~4.2–6.3%
CarbomerEffect: HighHelps create a thicker or gel-like product texture. It is not a surfactant but can be used in gentle cleansing formulations~2.1–3.1%
Peg-7 glyceryl cocoateEffect: HighHelps oils and water mix together and works as a cleansing agent~1.7–2.5%
Peg-40 hydrogenated castor oilEffect: HighHelps oil and water mix together~1.4–2.1%
