Cell Membranes are made up of more than only two things but 2 of them are;
protein and a lipid layer
Proteins and lipids don't have cell membranes but are the molecules that make up the bulk of what a cell membrane is.
Phospholipids
phospholpipids.
Phospholipids make up the majority of the bilayer that forms cell membranes. These phospholipids have hydrophilic (water-attracting) heads and hydrophobic (water-repelling) tails, allowing them to form a stable barrier in the cell membrane. Other lipids, such as cholesterol and glycolipids, also play a role in the structure and function of cell membranes.

Cell membranes are made up of proteins called PHOSPHOLIPID BILAYER It has phosphate molecules attached to the proteins There is also CHOLESTEROL in the cell membrane to make it more fluid

The most common type of cell membrane is a phospholipid.
Lipids are used to store energy in the form of triglycerides, make up cell membranes as phospholipids, and serve as precursors for the synthesis of hormones such as steroid hormones.
Cell membranes are mainly composed of phospholipids. A phospholipid is a phosphate group with a fatty acid tail. Proteins are also present in cell membranes.
