What does the product description say?
A purifying and brightening face cleanser that washes away makeup, dirt, excess oil and daily impurities without stripping or over-drying skin.
Source: Tula
This product works by removing dirt and oil from the surface of the skin. It uses a combination of mild cleansing agents (coco-glucoside, disodium laureth sulfosuccinate, lauryl glucoside, peg-120 methyl glucose dioleate, polysorbate 20, sodium hydroxypropylsulfonate laurylglucoside crosspolymer, sodium lauryl sulfoacetate, sorbitan isostearate) 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-glucoside
