Cleansing
What does the product description say?
Real Fresh Green Tea Cleansing Oil
Source: From product name
This product works by removing dirt and oil from the surface of the skin.
Keep in mind that cleansing can disrupt the skin barrier, and most people do not need to cleanse their skin more than once per day.
Helps water and oil mix together
Anti-blemish
What does the product description say?
Instantly dissolve makeup, impurities, blackheads, and dead skin cells while clearing pores for a radiant complexion.
Source: Soko Glam
Effective ingredients missing or their concentration is too low.
Helps soften the upper layer of the skin and can support skin barrier function
Green tea leaf powder that might contain antioxidants to help neutralize free radicals in skin
Can contain potent anti-oxidant compounds (abbreviated ECG, GCG, EGC, and EGCG) that might help protect the skin from free radicals. Can help calm down inflammation and has some anti-bacterial properties. Unfortunately, these antioxidants are unstable and lose their effectiveness very quickly in products. The concentration of the antioxidant compounds in the extract also tends to be low to be effective in topical formulation
Exfoliation
What does the product description say?
Instantly dissolve makeup, impurities, blackheads, and dead skin cells while clearing pores for a radiant complexion.
Source: Soko Glam
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.
