Name: Torriden Dive-In Low Molecular Hyaluronic Acid Cleansing Oil
Brand: Torriden

What is this product?

Torriden's Dive-In Low Molecular Hyaluronic Acid Cleansing Oil is a 200ml first cleanse whose selling point holds up on the label: eight hyaluronate entries, exactly as many as the marketing counts, with amounts printed at 100ppb on the first and 1ppb on the last. Whether that matters is another question, since this is a product you rinse straight off. The thing most likely to change your mind is the scent, because three essential oils and two named fragrance allergens are declared on a formula pitched at hydration and barrier comfort.

What makes it different?

Two things are unusual here. The base is a light ester and isododecane rather than a plant oil, and the eight hyaluronates are given actual amounts, in ppb rather than the more common ppm, which almost nothing in this category does. Set against that, an essential-oil fragrance load on a product sold on gentleness is the label fact most likely to decide a purchase, and two retailers print its functional-cosmetic notice differently for the same product, so check which one you are reading before quoting either.
