What the product description says
“Multi-Action Make-Up Remover Milk”
Source: Cocoon Center

This product works by removing dirt and oil from the surface of the skin. It uses a combination of mild cleansing agents (carbomer, glyceryl stearate, peg-100 stearate, peg-40 hydrogenated castor oil) 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.

CarbomerEffect: HighHelps create a thicker or gel-like product texture. It is not a surfactant but can be used in gentle cleansing formulations~1.5–2.3%
Glyceryl stearateEffect: HighAn emollient that softens the skin and forms a protective layer on its surface. Helps water and oil mix together~1.1–1.7%
Peg-100 stearateEffect: HighHelps oil and water mix togehter and creates a nice product texture~0.95–1.4%
Peg-40 hydrogenated castor oilEffect: HighHelps oil and water mix together~0.5–1.15%
