Laikou

No complete, official ingredient panel could be located for this product from the Laikou brand or from major retailers. A small third-party reseller (not the official brand site) lists a partial ingredient set -- Water, Glycerin, Carbomer, Camellia Sinensis (Tea) Leaf Extract, Polyethylene, Ethanol, and Butanediol -- but several of the terms on that listing appeared garbled or mistranslated, so this partial list should be treated as directional only, not a verified panel. Based on the product's described texture and function (a rinse-off peeling gel that forms small rolled beads), Polyethylene or a similar physical exfoliating agent, along with a Camellia Sinensis (Tea) Leaf Extract and a Carbomer-based gel thickener, are plausible components, but MedEasy cannot confirm a full, verified ingredient list at this time.
A 60g rinse-off peeling/exfoliating gel from Laikou's Matcha line, designed to lift away dead skin cells and surface debris through gentle rolling/massaging action rather than harsh scrubbing. Marketed as suitable for both face and body use (including hands, feet, elbows, and knees).
Physical peeling gels of this type are generally used to help remove dead skin cells, unclog pores, and leave skin feeling smoother. Green tea (Camellia Sinensis) extract, if present as suggested by the product's "Matcha" positioning, is commonly associated with mild antioxidant and soothing properties in skincare. Because the full formula is not verified, specific brightening or anti-aging claims beyond general exfoliation should be treated with caution.
Generally positioned for normal to oily skin types looking for gentle physical exfoliation. Because the complete ingredient list is unverified, those with sensitive skin, active breakouts, eczema, or a known reaction to gel-based exfoliants should patch test on a small area first or consult a dermatologist before regular use.
Apply an even layer to clean, dry or slightly damp skin. Gently massage in circular motions for one to two minutes, allowing the product to roll into small beads that lift away dead skin and debris. Rinse thoroughly with lukewarm water. Limit use to two to three times per week to avoid over-exfoliating.
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 redness, irritation, or an allergic reaction develops, and avoid use on broken or irritated skin.
Q: What does Laikou Matcha Peeling gel actually do on the skin?
A: When massaged onto skin, the gel rolls into small beads that lift away dead skin cells and surface debris, giving a smoother feel without harsh scrubbing.
Q: How do I apply Laikou Matcha Peeling gel?
A: Apply an even layer to clean, dry or slightly damp skin, massage gently in circular motions for one to two minutes until it beads up, then rinse thoroughly with lukewarm water.
Q: How often should I use Laikou Matcha Peeling gel?
A: Two to three times a week is a good starting point; using it daily can over-exfoliate the skin.
Q: Can Laikou Matcha Peeling gel be used on the body as well as the face?
A: Yes, it's marketed for use on both face and body, including hands, feet, elbows, and knees.
Q: Is Laikou Matcha Peeling gel suitable for sensitive or acne-prone skin?
A: Patch test on a small area first and avoid using it on broken or actively irritated skin. Stop use if redness or irritation develops.
Q: What does "Matcha" mean for Laikou Matcha Peeling gel?
A: It reflects the green tea (Camellia Sinensis) positioning of this product line; tea leaf extract is a plausible ingredient, though MedEasy could not confirm its exact concentration.
Q: Does Laikou Matcha Peeling gel exfoliate physically or with acids?
A: Physically. It works by rolling into small beads that mechanically lift away dead skin, rather than through chemical exfoliating acids.
