Ingredients Explained

These ingredients are found in both products.

Ingredients higher up in an ingredient list are typically present in a larger amount.

Skin Conditioning, Solvent

Water. It's the most common cosmetic ingredient of all. You'll usually see it at the top of ingredient lists, meaning that it makes up the largest part of the product.

So why is it so popular? Water most often acts as a solvent - this means that it helps dissolve other ingredients into the formulation.

You'll also recognize water as that liquid we all need to stay alive. If you see this, drink a glass of water. Stay hydrated!

It is a chelating agent, meaning it neutralizes metal ions that may be found in a product.

I use this as part of my pore declogging routine (Hada Labo Cleansing Oil, Axis Y PHA solution, then Anua LHA Peeling Gel)
Love it! My pores feel so clean after. So gentle & doesn’t cause irritation

I would give this product 10 out of 5 if I could. If you are in doubt, I recommend choosing this one and JUST TRYING. In the past, like many others, I was a huge fan of SECRETKEY Lemon Sparkling Peeling Gel. But for me, it was always too harsh (although my skin is normal, not dry and used to acids). So this peeling from Anua works GREAT, is effective and gentle. It is not sticky, you need to apply Show more
