What does the product description say?
Balance Gentle Hydrating Cleanser: Cleanse in gentle comfort
Source: Naked And thriving
This product works by removing dirt and oil from the surface of the skin. It uses a combination of mild cleansing agents (cetearyl alcohol, cetearyl olivate, cocamidopropyl hydroxysultaine, decyl glucoside, glyceryl stearate se, sodium laurylglucosides hydroxypropylsulfonate, sorbitan olivate, xanthan gum) 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: decyl glucoside
