This product works by removing dirt and oil from the surface of the skin. It uses a combination of mild cleansing agents (caprylyl glyceryl ether, coconut acid, decyl glucoside, glyceryl laurate, polyglyceryl-4 caprate, polyglyceryl-6 caprylate, sodium lauroyl glycinate, sodium lauroyl methyl isethionate) and should be able to cleanse the skin gently.
