What does the product description say?
High Performance Balancing Cleansing Oil Advanced Formula
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 (isohexadecane, polysorbate 85, sorbitan trioleate) 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.
Improves the texture of the product and helps soften the skin. Helps oil and water mix together and can be used as a cleansing agent
