Ingredient analysis and how the ad lines read

What is this product?
SKINFOOD Potato Madecassoside Soothing Pad is a wipe off calming pad, 60 pads in a 250 g jar, filed in Korea as a whitening functional cosmetic on niacinamide at position four of thirty seven. Its calming case is a five entry centella saponin complex: madecassoside at nineteen, then centella extract, asiaticoside, madecassic acid and asiatic acid in consecutive positions at twenty nine through thirty two. The complication is fragrance. There is no 향료 entry, but five essential oils are declared, and the brand asserts all skin types while citing no irritation test of any kind. A 30 pad refill SKU carries a byte identical ingredient list, and the ingredient index for this record points at that refill rather than the 60 pad anchor.
What makes it different?
A centella saponin complex carried as five separate declared entries rather than one isolate, in a pad whose scent comes entirely from five essential oils with no 향료 entry and no allergen breakdown. And a refill SKU with a byte identical list, which makes the size field the only thing separating the two listings.
