Ingredient analysis and how the ad lines read

What is this product?
A mugwort mud cleansing balm whose list is led by a cleansing ester and kaolin clay, with printed mugwort water and powder concentrations plus salicylic acid, glycolic acid, colloidal sulfur and centella extract. A good fit for oily or blemish-prone skin that wants a clay-assisted balm cleanse, less so for those avoiding fragrance.
What makes it different?
The formula pairs kaolin (2) with three mugwort ingredients at printed concentrations, which is unusual for a cleansing balm. Colloidal sulfur (27) and both salicylic and glycolic acids (20, 34) sit in the later half of the list, so exfoliating and sebum-supporting actives are present but at undisclosed strengths. Fragrance (12) appears near the top, which sensitive-nose users should weigh against the soothing mugwort content.

Ingredients with no mark are ones we found nothing notable about, and when marks overlap on one ingredient we show the caution first.
