What the product description says
“The Multi-Peptide Advanced Body Wash”
Source: Naturium

This product works by removing dirt and oil from the surface of the skin. It uses a combination of mild cleansing agents (cetyl alcohol, cocamidopropyl betaine, coconut acid, decyl glucoside, glycol distearate, myristic acid, palmitic acid, phosphatidylcholine, sodium cocoyl isethionate, sodium methyl cocoyl taurate, stearic acid, stearyl alcohol, 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: cocamidopropyl betaine, decyl glucoside, sodium methyl cocoyl taurate
