What the product description says
“Mens Range Energising Body Wash - Clove & Lime”
Source: Lookfantastic US

This product works by removing dirt and oil from the surface of the skin. It uses a combination of mild cleansing agents (cocamide dea, cocamidopropyl betaine, decyl glucoside, sodium coco-sulfate) 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: cocamidopropyl betaine, decyl glucoside

Sodium coco-sulfateEffect: High~9.5–11.6%
Cocamide deaEffect: High~2.8–3.4%
Cocamidopropyl betaineEffect: HighHelps water and oil mix together. Used as a cleansing ingredient. Could be an allergen~2.6–3.1%
Decyl glucosideEffect: HighHelps oil and water mix together. Can be irritating~2.5–3%
