Ingredient analysis and how the ad lines read
Read on 2026-09-21
What is this product?
A hydration-leaning gel exfoliator built on cellulose particles and five plant-derived AHA extracts, positioned for gentle, everyday dead-skin removal. Acid concentrations and pH are not published, so sensitive skin should patch-test first.
What makes it different?
The formula pairs physical softeners (Cellulose and Microcrystalline Cellulose sitting second and ninth in the list) with five fruit-derived AHA extracts that appear only in the later half, items 18 through 22, alongside Citric and Lactic Acid near the end. This suggests a mild, low-concentration acid action rather than a strong peel. Humectants like Butylene Glycol, Glycerin and Betaine rank high, which fits the product's moisturizing framing. A 6-FREE formulation claim is consistent with the printed ingredient list.
