What the product description says
“Eye Makeup Remover Emulsion”
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 (poloxamer 181, 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.

Poloxamer 181Effect: High~5.3–7.9%
Polysorbate 20Effect: HighHelps oil and water mix together~0.1–0.4%
