What the product description says
“Rosakalm Cleansing Micellar Water”
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 (cetrimonium bromide, 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.

Polysorbate 20Effect: HighHelps oil and water mix together~5.5–8.2%
Peg-6 caprylic/capric glyceridesEffect: HighHelps dissolve other ingredients~0.55–1.35%
Cetrimonium bromideEffect: HighHelps oil and water mix together. Also helps to preserve products~0.05–0.1%
