Charde Darktoning Bubble Peel Serum

Ingredient analysis and how the ad lines read

Read on 2026-10-01

What is this product?

Charde Darktoning Bubble Peel Serum is a 100 ml foam-pump, rinse-off peeling serum from a Korean brand, sold on the brand's own online store. Its printed list has 60 entries, opening with rice bran water, dipropylene glycol and water, a foaming surfactant, decyl glucoside, at 9th, then a brightener-type block of tranexamic acid, niacinamide, glutathione, alpha-arbutin and ascorbic acid, retinol at 21st, and four exfoliant-type entries (salicylic acid, gluconolactone, capryloyl salicylic acid, lactic acid) at 41st to 44th, plus a fragrance entry. The brand pairs a one-use glow and blackhead test on 21 adults with a transparency figure that has no test line, and states the product is not a whitening functional cosmetic.

What makes it different?

A rinse-off foam that stacks retinol, four exfoliant-type acid entries and a brightener block in one list while its copy sells a low-irritation, daily-use promise. Its headline 7.23 percent transparency figure has no test line, and its footnoted tests cover one-use glow and blackhead items, a pairing comparison with another product, and a one-time patch.

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 11 with no dictionary entry, left in Korean.

Worth a closer look

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