What the product description says
“The spray makes it easier to target all areas of the makeup you want to remove, no wipes or pads needed.”
Source: Vike Beauty

This product works by removing dirt and oil from the surface of the skin. It uses a combination of mild cleansing agents (peg-6 caprylic/capric glycerides, sodium lauroyl sarcosinate) 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.

Sodium lauroyl sarcosinateEffect: HighHelps oil and water mix together and works as a cleansing agent~11–13%
Peg-6 caprylic/capric glyceridesEffect: HighHelps dissolve other ingredients~2.8–3.4%
