Cleansing
What does the product description say?
Oil Control Wash 150m

This product works by removing dirt and oil from the surface of the skin. It uses a combination of mild cleansing agents (cetearyl alcohol, glyceryl stearate, peg-100 stearate) 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.

An emollient that softens the skin and forms a protective layer on its surface. Helps water and oil mix together

Exfoliation
What does the product description say?
This charcoal scrub will deeply cleanse, and leave the skin feeling fresh and clean.
Source: Supderdrug
This product does not contain effective exfoliating ingredients. It might be able to deliver physical exfoliation, that is scrub off some of the dead cells on the surface of the skin. We do not recommend physical exfoliation, because it is not uniform (some bits of skin can get exfoliated too much while others not at all). It can also traumatize the skin and aggrevate acne and other skin conditions.
