What the product description says
“Lid Scrub Plus Eyelid Cleanser Pre-Moistened Pads”
Source: Walgreens

This product works by removing dirt and oil from the surface of the skin. It uses a combination of mild cleansing agents (decyl glucoside, disodium cocoamphodiacetate, peg-120 methyl glucose dioleate, peg-80 sorbitan laurate) 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

Peg-80 sorbitan laurateEffect: High~23–34%
Decyl glucosideEffect: HighHelps oil and water mix together. Can be irritating~3.8–5.6%
Peg-120 methyl glucose dioleateEffect: High~3.2–4.8%
Disodium cocoamphodiacetateEffect: HighHelps oil and water mix together and works as a cleansing agent~0.95–1.45%

“Lid Scrub Plus Eyelid Cleanser Pre-Moistened Pads”
Source: Walgreens

This product does not contain effective exfoliating ingredients. It might be able to deliver physical exfoliation, that is scrub off some of the dead cells on the surface of the skin. We do not recommend physical exfoliation, because it is not uniform (some bits of skin can get exfoliated too much while others not at all). It can also traumatize the skin and aggrevate acne and other skin conditions.
