Cleansing
What does the product description say?
Just swipe back and forth over lips, wipe it off, and get makeout-ready—or makeup-ready—lips anytime, anywhere.

This product works by removing dirt and oil from the surface of the skin.
Keep in mind that cleansing can disrupt the skin barrier, and most people do not need to cleanse their skin more than once per day.
Forms a protective barrier that holds water and keeps dry skin hydrated. Keeps an emulsion from separating into its oil and liquid components, and increases the thickness of a product. Can be an allergen
Exfoliation
What does the product description say?
Pro Kiss’r Lip-Loving Scrubstick smooths the way for instantly soft, kissable lips without the mess of your old-school lip scrub.
Source: Boots
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.
