Cleansing
What does the product description say?
Daily Cleansing Balm
Source: From product name
This product works by removing dirt and oil from the surface of the skin. It uses a combination of mild cleansing agents (coconut acid, glyceryl behenate, lauric acid, myristic acid, palmitic acid, polyglyceryl-10 laurate, polyglyceryl-2 stearate, sodium cocoyl isethionate, sodium stearate) 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 water and oil mix together. Has anti-bacterial properties that might be helpful in preventing blemishes
Is proven to be effective in reducing blemishes, evening out skin tone and helping to improve lines and wrinkles. It helps the skin to repair sun damage, calm down inflammation and keep maintain good levels of moisture. The concentration of about 2% is effective for supporting the skin barrier and evening out the skin tone. Concentration of 4-6% is better for helping with acne and balancing the sebum production
Used for skin exfoliation. It has an anti-inflammatory and anti-bacterial effect, helps to unclog pores, prevent blemishes and speed up healing of the existing ones. Sometimes referred to as a BHA (beta-hydroxy acid)
Exfoliation
What does the product description say?
Cleanse with benefits! Made with oily and problematic-skin in mind, Blemish Balm combines physical (biodegradable cellulose) and chemical (salicylic acid) exfoliation into one powerhouse formula to help refine skin texture and minimize the appearance of pores while ceramides help ensure skin is never left feeling stripped.

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.
