What the product description says
“Pure Vitamin C V10 Cleansing Bar 1pc”
Source: Yesstyle

This product works by removing dirt and oil from the surface of the skin. It uses a combination of mild cleansing agents (coco-betaine, decyl glucoside, disodium laureth sulfosuccinate, potassium laurate, sodium laurate, sodium palmitate, sodium stearate, stearic acid) 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: coco-betaine, decyl glucoside, sodium palmitate

Sodium palmitateEffect: High~3.2–4.8%
Sodium stearateEffect: HighHelps oil and water mix together~2.6–3.9%
Potassium laurateEffect: HighHelps water and oil mix together~1.6–2.4%
