Cleansing
What does the product description say?
Super Volcanic Pore Clay Mask – Deep Cleanse Clear Face Pores - ORIGINAL
Source: Innisfree
This product works by removing dirt and oil from the surface of the skin. It uses a combination of mild cleansing agents (cetearyl alcohol, glyceryl stearate, palmitic acid, peg-100 stearate, polysorbate 20, polysorbate 60, sorbitan isostearate, sorbitan stearate, 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.

Exfoliation
What does the product description say?
A wash-off, cooling clay mask with Volcanic Clusters and AHA that helps control excess sebum and visibly minimize pores while providing skin-smoothing exfoliation.
Source: Innisfree
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.
An exfoliating and moisturizing alpha-hydroxy acid (AHA). Typically causes less irritation than other AHAs, for example, glycolic acid. At high concentrations (about 15%), lactic acid can help reduce lines and wrinkles. Recent studies show that lactic acid can support the "good" bacteria living on skin's surface (healthy skin microbiome)
