I consider this a good exfoliator for the price.

Oat is the second abundant ingredient and the main exfoliating agent. Besides exfoliating oat extract can also have anti-irritant and anti-inflammatory properties.

Interestingly, the fourth ingredient kaolin is natural clay mineral that is usually used in oil control cosmetics for its absorbent properties. Probably used here for deep cleansing. But it might be over-drying for dry and sensitive skin.

This exfoliator does ok in terms of moisturizing. It contains honey and saccharide both of which are emollient that has good water-binding properties for skin.

Oily skin should not use this product. The ingredient myristyl myristate is highly prone to cause breakouts.

It will be better if they didn't put fragrance in it.

Safety alert: Cautious
