What the product description says
“Topialyse Micellar Wash-Off Oil”
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 (caprylyl/capryl glucoside, coco-betaine, polyglyceryl-10 laurate, polyglyceryl-3 cocoate, sodium c14-16 olefin sulfonate, sodium lauroamphoacetate, sodium olivamphoacetate) 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: coco-betaine, sodium c14-16 olefin sulfonate

Concentration of 4-6% is better for helping with acne and balancing the sebum production~1.6–2.3%
