SKINFOOD Shine Muscat Cica BHA Food Mask

Ingredient analysis and how the ad lines read

Read on 2026-10-01

What is this product?

A rinse off mask from SKINFOOD in a 120 g jar, applied for 5 to 10 minutes and rinsed with lukewarm water. The printed list has 49 entries: water, glycerin and mica lead, with centella extract at 2,060 ppm, salicylic acid at 2,000 ppm and grape extract at 1,030 ppm as the disclosed concentrations. Corn mint powder, rice powder and bentonite give the green particulate paste. It carries four essential oil entries and no fragrance entry, and it is not a registered functional cosmetic. The brand cites one single panel study of 22 people after one use, reporting lower redness, lower skin temperature and less flaking area, with no untreated comparison line printed.

What makes it different?

Two things separate it. It pairs a disclosed 2,000 ppm salicylic acid with mint powder and a cooling amide in a clay and starch paste, so its cooling and its exfoliation come from different printed entries. And its one study is reported as three percent figures that all recompute exactly from printed bar values, while the same study prints no untreated comparison line and draws its bars on truncated axes.

What is in it?

The full ingredient list as the brand publishes it, in the printed order. Each name links to what we know about that ingredient.

This brand publishes its ingredient list in Korean only. Names below are the matching INCI names from the Korean Cosmetic Association ingredient dictionary, except 4 with no dictionary entry, left in Korean.
