What the product description says
“Fix Oil Control Makeup Fixing Spray”
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 (laureth-7, linseed acid, peg-40 hydrogenated castor oil, 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~1.2–1.7%
Peg-40 hydrogenated castor oilEffect: HighHelps oil and water mix together~0.55–1.25%
Laureth-7Effect: HighHelps oil and water mix together~0.2–0.75%

Alcohol denat.Produces temporary toning effect. Can help dissolve other ingredients or preserve productsHigh~6.8–10.2%est.

Retinyl palmitateThree steps removed from the active form of vitamin A - retinoic acid. To have an effect in the skin, it first needs to be converted twice to become the retinoic acid. This means it is less potent than retinol, but could also be less irritating. Once converted to the retinoic acid in the skin, it helps against all signs of aging, improves skin cell turnover and helps fight blemishes and clogged pores. However, in many cosmetic formulations, it is used in a concentration that is too low to have the full effectHigh~0.05–0.2%est.
