“Refreshing Foaming Wash”
This product works by removing dirt and oil from the surface of the skin. It uses a combination of mild cleansing agents (cocamidopropyl betaine, coco-glucoside, disodium laureth sulfosuccinate, glyceryl laurate, glyceryl oleate, lauryl glucoside, peg-200 hydrogenated glyceryl palmate, peg-40 hydrogenated castor oil, peg-7 glyceryl cocoate, sodium cocoamphoacetate) 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, coco-glucoside, glyceryl oleate

An active component of chamomile plant that historically has been used to calm down irritated skin.

The concentration of the antioxidant compounds in the extract also tends to be low to be effective in topical formulation
