Cleansing
What does the product description say?
Evening Detox Cleansing Water
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 (almond oil peg-8 esters, cetrimonium bromide, olive oil peg-7 esters, peg-40 hydrogenated castor oil, poloxamer 184) 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 oil and water mix together. Also helps to preserve products

Exfoliation
What does the product description say?
For best results follow nightly with evening detox spray-on exfoliant and 1-2 times a week with evening detox clay mask.
Source: Feelunique
This product can help exfoliate the skin. In other words, it helps break down the bonds between dead cells on the surface of the skin and speed up the skin turnover. Skin often appears softer and brighter after exfoliation, but overdoing it can result in disrupted skin barrier. The following ingredient is doing the exfoliating job in this product: gluconolactone.
A polyhydroxy acid (PHA) that helps shed the dead cells from the skin surface revealing smoother skin. Is believed to be genter than AHAs. It helps attract water to the upper layer of the skin and can stimulate production of skin's own hyaluronic acid resulting in improved hydration levels. It has been shown to be helpful against acne and clogged pores if used consistently (e.g over a period of 12 weeks) in high enough concentration. It can help reduce fine lines and wrinkles and improve skin tone with long-term application. Can help neutralize free radicals
Anti-blemish
What does the product description say?
Its restorative ingredients such as Sweet Almond Oil and soothing Aloe Vera help to decongest clogged pores while anti-allergenic liquorice root acts as a skin conditioning agent to calm down inflammation.

This product contains ingredients (gluconolactone) that could help reduce blemishes and clogged pores in theory, but there is not enough evidence that they actually work.
