How Does It Work

This peeling gel uses cellulose to physically lift and roll away surface dead skin cells while LHA (a milder oil-soluble exfoliant related to salicylic acid) helps dissolve excess sebum and impurities inside pores. Heartleaf helps calm irritation, while sodium hyaluronate, glycerin, and allantoin help reduce dryness and support hydration. This allows the formula to exfoliate gently without leaving skin overly stripped or tight.
