What the product description says

“Palms Together Hand Cleansing Gel Ocean Scent with Hook”

From product name

This product works by removing dirt and oil from the surface of the skin. It uses a combination of mild cleansing agents (carbomer, triethanolamine) 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.

CarbomerEffect: HighHelps create a thicker or gel-like product texture. It is not a surfactant but can be used in gentle cleansing formulations~3.3–4.9%

TriethanolamineEffect: HighUsed to adjust pH of the product and can help improve the product's smell~1.8–2.7%
