Cleansing
What does the product description say?
Detox Shampoo has a deeper cleanse and removes buildup/heavy metals from the entire head.
Source: N/A
This product works by removing dirt and oil from the surface of the skin. It uses a combination of mild cleansing agents (cocamide mipa, cocamidopropyl betaine, decyl glucoside, peg-150 distearate, polysorbate 20, sodium c14-16 olefin sulfonate, sodium lauroyl methyl isethionate) 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: cocamidopropyl betaine, decyl glucoside, sodium c14-16 olefin sulfonate

Exfoliation
What does the product description say?
Scalp & Body Scrub exfoliates using sugar, a pro-probiotic blend, and coconut oil.
Source: N/A
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.
