What does the product description say?

Biodegradable Micellar Cleansing Wipes 25s

Source: From product name

This product works by removing dirt and oil from the surface of the skin. It uses a combination of mild cleansing agents (peg-35 castor oil, peg-6 caprylic/capric glycerides, polysorbate 20) 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.
