What does the product description say?

Mild non-ionic surfactants, constituents of micelles, act like magnets and capture make-up and impurities.

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 (caprylyl/capryl glucoside, cetrimonium bromide, poloxamer 184, polysorbate 20) 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.

caprylyl/capryl glucoside 2% - 2.9%

Irritation risk:

Concentration: Effectiveness: HIGH

Helps oil and water mix together. Can be used as a cleansing agent

cetrimonium bromide 0.05% - 0.1%
