Cleansing
What does the product description say?
Massage gently for about a minute and wash off with lukewarm water.
Source: Feelunique
This product works by removing dirt and oil from the surface of the skin. It uses a combination of mild cleansing agents (carbomer, egg yolk extract) 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 create a thicker or gel-like product texture. It is not a surfactant but can be used in gentle cleansing formulations
Might help moisturize the skin
Exfoliation
What does the product description say?
Holika Holika's Smooth Egg Skin Peeling Gel exfoliates dead skin and makes skin smooth and soft, with a brighter complexion.
Source: Ulta
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.
