AHA Blackhead Out Cleansing Oil
This product works by removing dirt and oil from the surface of the skin. It uses a combination of mild cleansing agents (sorbeth-30 tetraoleate) 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.

Promise: Exfoliation
What does the product description say?
Gently massage in a circular motion to remove dead skin cells and heavy makeup.
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: lactobionic acid.
| Ingredient | Effectiveness | Concentration | Irritancy |
|---|---|---|---|
| lactobionic acid | HIGH | | |
