SKINFOOD Acorn Pore Peptide Daily Mask

What is this product?

Its printed list has 49 entries: water, butylene glycol, a glycerol ethoxylate and niacinamide open it, an acorn extract sits at 13th with a stated 1,000 ppm and ellagic acid 500 ppb, adenosine is 15th, and a palmitoyl tripeptide at 46th carries a stated 30 ppb. No fragrance entry is printed while six essential oils are. The brand cites a single-patch primary irritation test on 34 adults.

What makes it different?

A five-minute daily sheet mask built on an acorn extract with three printed amounts, a functional review mark for brightening and wrinkle improvement without a filing number, and six essential oils in a list with no fragrance entry. The pore-tightening and sebum-control wording has no test behind it on the page.
