Product overview
Key Ingredients
Sourced from an ingredient-database cross-check site (skinsort.com), the published ingredient list is: Water, Laurtrimonium Chloride, Carbomer, Butylene Glycol, Hydrated Silica, Polysorbate 20, Parfum, Prunus Persica (Peach) Fruit Extract, Rhodiola Rosea Root Extract, Panax Ginseng Root Extract, Imperata Cylindrica Root Extract, Sodium Hyaluronate, Phenoxyethanol, Magnesium Nitrate, Methylchloroisothiazolinone, Magnesium Oxide, Methylisothiazolinone, CI 16255, Sodium Chloride, and CI 16035. Important discrepancy: multiple retailer listings for this product prominently market it around "Malic Acid" and "Tocopherols (Vitamin E)" as key actives -- but neither ingredient appears anywhere in this disclosed panel. This is a genuine, unresolved discrepancy between marketing claims and the available ingredient data; MedEasy is flagging it rather than presenting either the "malic acid exfoliant" marketing claim or the sourced ingredient panel as definitively complete and accurate. Separately, this product is also inconsistently labeled as a "gel," "gel cream," and "cream" across different reseller listings with overlapping model/SKU numbers, which adds to the general caution around this product line's catalog data.
Key Features
A 140g exfoliating gel built around Peach Fruit Extract, Ginseng Root Extract, and Sodium Hyaluronate, marketed for gentle exfoliation, reducing the appearance of pores and blackheads, and revitalizing dull skin tone.
Benefits
Sodium Hyaluronate is a well-established humectant that supports hydration during exfoliation. Panax Ginseng Root Extract and Rhodiola Rosea Root Extract are commonly featured in skincare marketing for their association with revitalizing and antioxidant properties. Note that the exfoliating "fruit acid" mechanism marketed by the brand (often attributed to Malic Acid) is not reflected in the available ingredient panel, so the precise exfoliation mechanism for this specific formula could not be confirmed.
Who Can Use This Product
Generally marketed as gentle enough for face, body, and lips, including sensitive skin, though because of the ingredient-data discrepancy noted above, those with known sensitivities or reactive skin should patch test on a small area first. This formula contains Methylchloroisothiazolinone and Methylisothiazolinone (preservatives some people are sensitive to), so those with known sensitivities to these preservatives should avoid this product.
How to Use
Apply to wet or dry skin and massage in circular motions, focusing on the T-zone and nose area. Rinse with warm water. Use 1-2 times per week. Follow with moisturizer and sunscreen, since exfoliation can increase sun sensitivity.
Storage & Safety
Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Keep out of reach of children. Avoid contact with eyes; rinse thoroughly with water if contact occurs. Discontinue use if irritation, redness, or an allergic reaction develops. Use daytime sunscreen after exfoliating.
