What the product description says
“Kind to Skin Eye Makeup Remover x , Rich Moisturiser x , Cleansing Wipes x 20 Mask x 1”
From product name

This product works by removing dirt and oil from the surface of the skin. It uses a combination of mild cleansing agents (ceteareth-12, ceteareth-20, cetearyl alcohol, ceteth-20, glyceryl arachidonate, glyceryl stearate, hydrogenated lecithin, laureth-23, laureth-7, peg-20 glyceryl laurate, peg-40 hydrogenated castor oil, poloxamer 184, polyglyceryl-3 methylglucose distearate, stearyl alcohol, xanthan gum) 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.

IngredientFunctionIrritationEst. amount
Iodopropynyl butylcarbamateA preservative. Can be irritatingHigh~0.01–0.02%est.
Ethylhexyl methoxycinnamateOctinoxate. When used in higher concentrations, works as a sunscreen protecting the skin from UVB rays. When used in lower concentration, helps to preserve the product formulation. Is shown to be harmful to coral reefs - consider avoiding bathing in coral reef areas when wearing a product with this ingredient. It can be irritatingHigh~0.5–0.75%est.
Retinyl palmitateThree steps removed from the active form of vitamin A - retinoic acid. To have an effect in the skin, it first needs to be converted twice to become the retinoic acid. This means it is less potent than retinol, but could also be less irritating. Once converted to the retinoic acid in the skin, it helps against all signs of aging, improves skin cell turnover and helps fight blemishes and clogged pores. However, in many cosmetic formulations, it is used in a concentration that is too low to have the full effectHigh~0.1–0.2%est.
