What the product description says

“A mild micellar cleansing oil that gently cleanses away all skin impurities and makeup without leaving any greasy or sticky feeling on the skin.”

Source: Yesstyle

This product works by removing dirt and oil from the surface of the skin. It uses a combination of mild cleansing agents (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.
