What the product description says
β€œCleanse & Purify Skin Nothing enhances your appearance more than clean, healthy skin.”
Source: SmallFlower

This product works by removing dirt and oil from the surface of the skin. It uses a combination of mild cleansing agents (palm acid, sodium palmate) 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.

Sodium palmateEffect: HighWorks as a cleansing agent. Helps water and oil mix together~10–15%
Palm acidEffect: High~1.3–1.9%
LanolinEffect: High, below effective doseSebum of wool-bearing animals (most commonly sheep). Helps soften the upper layer of the skin and reduce the skin water loss. In rare cases could be an allergen. Not suitable for vegans~0.85–1.3%
