“Eyes & Lips Micellar Cleanse is a triple-phase micellar cleansing system designed to gently remove stubborn eye and lip make-up at the end of the day.”
This product works by removing dirt and oil from the surface of the skin. It uses a combination of mild cleansing agents (decyl glucoside, peg-40 hydrogenated castor oil, poloxamer 184) 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.
Even though this formulation is mild, the following cleansing agents could trigger an irritation or allergy for some people: decyl glucoside
