What the product description says
“Geek & Gorgeous Mighty Melt Cleansing Balm is a gentle balm cleanser that lifts away long-lasting, waterproof makeup & sunscreen.”
Source: Lila Beauty

This product works by removing dirt and oil from the surface of the skin. It uses a combination of mild cleansing agents (olive oil peg-7 esters, peg-20 glyceryl triisostearate) 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.

Olive oil peg-7 estersEffect: HighHelps oil and water mix together and works as a cleansing agent~4.2–6.3%
Peg-20 glyceryl triisostearateEffect: HighHelps water and oil mix together~4–6%
