What the product description says
“Clearing Spot Gel helps unclog and cleanse pores reducing spots and acne type breakouts without drying the skin”
Source: EllaBonita

This product works by removing dirt and oil from the surface of the skin. It uses a combination of mild cleansing agents (isohexadecane, peg-40 hydrogenated castor oil, polysorbate 60, xanthan gum) 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.
