β€œEucalyptus Soap”
Source: SmallFlower

This product works by removing dirt and oil from the surface of the skin. It uses a combination of mild cleansing agents (palm kernel acid, sodium palm kernelate, sodium palmate) 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.

Sodium palmateEffect: HighWorks as a cleansing agent. Helps water and oil mix together~25–38%
Sodium palm kernelateEffect: High~9.8–14.8%
Palm kernel acidEffect: High~1.3–2%
Exfoliation

What the product description says
β€œCrushed Eucalyptus leaf gently exfoliates the skin and macadamia nut oil soothes and moisturizes the skin.”
Source: SmallFlower

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.
