What the product description says
“The Weleda Calendula Cream Bath gently cleanses and cares for your baby's delicate skin.”
Source: Mankind

This product works by removing dirt and oil from the surface of the skin. It uses a combination of mild cleansing agents (glyceryl oleate, sodium beeswax, xanthan gum) 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: glyceryl oleate

Glyceryl oleateEffect: HighHelps oil and water mix together. Can be irritating~1.5–2.2%
Sodium beeswaxEffect: High~0.55–1.3%
Xanthan gumEffect: HighUsed to create a thicker product consistency~0.35–0.85%
