What the product description says
“A nourishing cleansing milk for the face and eyes, enriched with antioxidants and vitamins.”
Source: Lookfantastic

This product works by removing dirt and oil from the surface of the skin. It uses a combination of mild cleansing agents (ceteareth-20, cetearyl alcohol, glyceryl stearate, triethanolamine) 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.

Cetearyl alcoholEffect: HighA non-drying alcohol. Works as an emollient. Helps water and oil mix together and creates a nice product texture~2.3–2.8%
Ceteareth-20Effect: HighHelps oil and water mix together. Has some emollient properties~1.5–1.8%
Glyceryl stearateEffect: HighAn emollient that softens the skin and forms a protective layer on its surface. Helps water and oil mix together~0.7–1.05%
TriethanolamineEffect: HighUsed to adjust pH of the product and can help improve the product's smell~0.45–0.65%
