What the product description says
“This non-stripping cream cleanser gently removes makeup, excess oil and impurities while moisturizing skin with Hyaluronic Acid, a potent hydrator that draws in water.”
Source: Beautylish

This product works by removing dirt and oil from the surface of the skin. It uses a combination of mild cleansing agents (cetearyl alcohol, coconut acid, disodium cocoamphodiacetate, glyceryl stearate se, glycol distearate, sodium caproyl methyltaurate, sodium cocoyl isethionate, sodium methyl stearoyl taurate, stearic acid, 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.
