What does the product description say?
Daily Detox Purifying Face Wash
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 (cocamidopropyl betaine, peg-7 glyceryl cocoate, sodium laureth sulfate, 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: cocamidopropyl betaine, sodium laureth sulfate
Helps water and oil mix together. Used as a cleansing ingredient. Could be an allergen
Helps oils and water mix together and works as a cleansing agent
Works as a foaming cleansing agent
Used to create a thicker product consistency
Anti-blemish
What does the product description say?
When skin is exposed to external aggressors such as heat, pollution or products containing harsh chemicals, it can become sensitised and trigger an overproduction of oil and sebum and ultimately lead to clogged pores and spots.

This product contains ingredients (zinc pca) that could help reduce blemishes and clogged pores in theory, but there is not enough evidence that they actually work.
A compound that combines zinc with a hydrating ingredient PCA. Might to be helpful against acne and clogged pores. Can help calm down inflammation in skin. Could be helpful in reducing the formation of free radicals in skin. Might help to reduce fine lines in wrinkles, but solid evidence is missing

It helps the skin to repair sun damage, calm down inflammation and keep maintain good levels of moisture.
