KLAVUU 피톤치드 퀵 클렌징 패드

What is this product?

A Korean wipe off cleansing pad sold at 100 sheets and 380ml, roughly 3.8ml of liquid per sheet. The printed list runs twenty four entries: water, two glycols, one polyethoxylated ester surfactant, a hinoki cypress water in sixth position that is the formula's answer to the phytoncide in the product name, a continuous run of nine plant extracts, three hyaluronate forms, and a citrus peel oil followed by declared limonene at the end. No acid, no enzyme and no notified functional active appear, and the statutory notice row declares no functional status. The listing title advertises exfoliation care that the liquid does not supply.

What makes it different?

A cleansing pad whose liquid contains one surfactant and no acid or enzyme at all, so the exfoliation in its own title is mechanical, and a hinoki cypress water that carries the phytoncide name the product is sold under.

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

Did the ad claims hold up?

We checked 4 lines this product advertises against the ingredient list and public documents. One of them holds up. The rest are only partly right or have nothing behind them.

Each line is quoted as the brand published it, and each one was read on its own against the ingredient list and the documents the brand publishes.
