Cleansing
What does the product description say?
Giving the body a full detox, this refreshing formula soothes and cleans the skin.
Source: Beauty Expert
This product works by removing dirt and oil from the surface of the skin. It uses a combination of mild cleansing agents (carbomer, decyl glucoside, 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.
Even though this formulation is mild, the following cleansing agents could trigger an irritation or allergy for some people: decyl glucoside
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. Can be irritating
Used to create a thicker product consistency
Used mostly for creating emulsions - helping oil and water mix together. Helps soften the upper layer of the skin
Exfoliation
What does the product description say?
Blended with Green Clay, the cleanser uplifts dirt, dead skin cells and impurities from the body without stripping the body of its essential oils.
Source: Beauty Expert
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.
A plant extract that might contain salicylic acid
