Ingredient analysis and how the ad lines read
Read on 2026-09-22
What is this product?
A water-light sebum-care pad built around Camellia Sinensis Leaf Extract at 15,980ppm plus a mild BHA (Betaine Salicylate, 5,000ppm as BHA), suitable for oily or combination skin wanting gentle daily exfoliation with hydration. Very dry skin needing heavy occlusion may find it too light.
What makes it different?
Camellia Sinensis Leaf Extract sits fourth in the list at a stated 15,980ppm, and Betaine Salicylate sits sixth, giving this pad a genuinely exfoliant-forward structure rather than a token amount. The rest of the formula stays light and water-based, with humectants such as Glycerin, Betaine, Panthenol and Sodium Hyaluronate plus soothing extracts including Centella Asiatica Extract. The list is short at 22 items and fragrance-free, which keeps irritation potential low for a sebum pad.

Did the ad claims hold up?
We checked the one line this product advertises against the ingredient list and public documents. None of them hold up on their own. They are partly right at best.
Claims translated from Korean, originals preserved.
