Effective ingredients missing or their concentration is too low.
Exfoliation
What does the product description say?
CLEAN & CLEAR® Deep Action Exfoliating Scrub is designed to invigorate skin by cleansing deep down to the pores and gently exfoliating surface skin.
Source: Target
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.
