What does the product description say?
Bee Venom Cleansing Balm
Source: 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 (glyceryl behenate, peg-8 caprylic/capric glycerides, polyglyceryl-3 diisostearate, polysorbate 20) 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.
Used to create a thicker product consistency and help soften the upper layer of the skin
Helps oil and water mix together
