Cleansing
What does the product description say?
Smoothing Cleansing Oil
Source: From product name
This product works by removing dirt and oil from the surface of the skin. It uses a combination of mild cleansing agents (diisostearyl malate, peg-6 cocamide, polyglyceryl-2 diisostearate, polysorbate 85) 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.
Helps to soften the upper layer of the skin
Exfoliation
What does the product description say?
Uplifting dirt, dead skin cells, makeup and impurities from the skin’s surface, the oil works to reduce the appearance of enlarged pores.
Source: Skinstore
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.
