GYEOL HAUS Extreme Calming Tea Tree Oil
Ingredient analysis and how the ad lines read
Read on 2026-09-25
What is this product?
GYEOL HAUS Extreme Calming Tea Tree Oil is a 30 ml water-free face oil in a pump bottle. Its 18 entry Korean statutory list leads with squalane and prints tea tree leaf oil at 2 percent, with bakuchiol fourth and the retinoid hydroxypinacolone retinoate eighth, and ends with the declared allergen limonene; there is no fragrance entry and no exfoliating acid. It is not a filed functional cosmetic. One brand-run study on 20 people over four weeks reports lower sebum, smaller pores and less roughness, with no control group, and its redness headline does not match its own chart. No irritation test is shown. Suited to oily, breakout-prone skin that wants a retinoid in a light oil; sensitive skin, people avoiding essential oils or limonene, and anyone pregnant or planning pregnancy should take care.
What makes it different?
A light squalane oil that pairs 2 percent tea tree oil with a retinoid ester and bakuchiol, rather than a tea tree spot treatment, backed by a named four week study on this product. It carries an essential oil and limonene, and shows no irritation data.
