The cell membrane is composed of a phospholipid bilayer.

Phospholipids are a major component of cell membranes.  They a head and a tail. The head is hydrophilic  (attracted to water) and the tail is hydrophobic (repelled by water).

They form a bilayer in which their hydrophilic heads face the aqueous cytosol and extracellular fluid  while their hydrophobic tails face away from the cytosol  and extracellular fluid.

The lipid bilayer is semi - permeable
