Cleansing
What does the product description say?
The men-ü Buddy Matt 'Skin Refresh' Gel Tube removes impurities and controls excess oils and shine.
Source: Lookfantastic
This product works by removing dirt and oil from the surface of the skin. It uses a combination of mild cleansing agents (carbomer, polysorbate 20, triethanolamine) 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
Helps oil and water mix together
Used to adjust pH of the product and can help improve the product's smell
Exfoliation
What does the product description say?
The fragrance-free gel is enriched with salicylic acid and witch hazel to exfoliate skin and unblock clogged pores, revealing healthy looking skin.
Source: Lookfantastic
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.
