Key actives
Cleansing
What does the product description say?
This facial scrub helps to polish and purify the complexion of lingering impurities, leaving skin refreshed, radiant and silky-soft.
Source: Mankind
This product works by removing dirt and oil from the surface of the skin. It uses a combination of mild cleansing agents (cetearyl alcohol, cetearyl glucoside, cetyl alcohol, glyceryl stearate, sodium stearoyl glutamate) 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.

CBD. Can bind to skin cell receptors and can reduce inflammation, itching, and help support skin barrier function
Exfoliation
What does the product description say?
Skin Polish Scrub
Source: From product name
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.
