What the product description says
“#graceface Butter Makeup Remover”
Source: Beauty Bay

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, polysorbate 85, stearoyl inulin) 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.

Peg-20 glyceryl triisostearateEffect: HighHelps water and oil mix together~3.3–5%
Polysorbate 85Effect: High~1.8–2.7%
Stearoyl inulinEffect: High~1–1.6%
