What the product description says
“Simple Mini Eye Make-Up removes eye make-up in one go, even waterproof mascara and waterproof make-up!”
Source: Supderdrug

This product works by removing dirt and oil from the surface of the skin. It uses a combination of mild cleansing agents (ceteth-20, laureth-23, peg-20 glyceryl laurate, 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.

Poloxamer 184Effect: High~4.5–6.7%
Ceteth-20Effect: HighHelps water and oil mix together~2.6–3.9%
Peg-20 glyceryl laurateEffect: High~2–3%
Laureth-23Effect: HighHelps oil and water mix together~1.6–2.4%
