The amount of foam created depends on the amount of sodium cocoyl isethionate used in the product.

Glycine and Vitamin A are naturally found in papain.
While papain is often touted as skin-lightening, further studies are needed to prove this. However, papain has been shown to help soothe acne-inflammation.
Papain belongs to a class of enzymes called proteolytic enzymes. These enzymes break down peptides and amino acids.
Some studies found papain to be a potential skin sensitizer and allergen. Those with latex allergies might also be allergic to papaya.

As an AHA, Citric Acid removes the top layer of skin cells from the newer layer of skin underneath. This helps skin to remove dark spots and even out skin tone.
If you spot Citric Acid near the end of an ingredient list, it's likely there as a pH adjuster rather than an active ingredient.

it destroyed my skin.
After two usage, it literally destroyed my skin. I used it hoping that it would help with my blackheads, but demolished my skin barrier and spread my acne on the rest of my face. If I could give zero, I would do it. This is the reason I'll always patch test. Still recovering.
