Ingredients Explained
These ingredients are found in both products.
Ingredients higher up in an ingredient list are typically present in a larger amount.
Butylene Glycol (or BG) is used within cosmetic products for a few different reasons:
- It is a solvent, meaning that it helps to dissolve other ingredients. This also enhances the absorption of the product into one's skin.
- It is a humectant, which means that it helps attract moisture into the skin.
- It helps improve product application.
Overall, Butylene Glycol is a safe and well-rounded ingredient. It is unlikely to irritate skin, and works well with pretty much all other ingredients.
Some By Mi AHA, BHA, PHA 14 Days Super Miracle Spot All Kill Cream contains this as ingredient number 5.
Lion Pair Acne Cream W contains this as ingredient number 9.
Disodium EDTA plays a role in making products more stable by aiding other preservatives.
It is a chelating agent, meaning it neutralizes metal ions that may be found in a product.
Disodium EDTA is a salt of edetic acid and is found to be safe in cosmetic ingredients.

Update March 2024: I’m not gonna change my old rating because allergies/sensitivities are not universal, but I just wanted to make this update as a word of caution for anyone with reactionary prone skin. It is possible to develop new allergies over time and unfortunately that’s what happened to me. I’ve been using this cream since February 2023 but recently the patches of skin where I use this cream become inflamed, red, itchy, flakey, etc. I had to use a prescription steroid ointment to treat it, so it was pretty bad. My best guess is that it is due to whatever specific fragrance blend Lion uses in this cream, but I’m not entirely sure. Not all products with fragrance bother my skin but this one sure does, so if you have reactionary skin please just be careful.
Original Review July 2023:
A unique and gentle approach to adult acne
This product is so different compared to other acne products I’ve tried. (From what I’ve heard) this product is marketed in Japan for the treatment of adult acne and is often found in the pharmaceutical section of the drug store rather than the cosmetic. The active ingredients in this are ibuprofen piconol (IPPN) and isopropyl methylphenol (IPMP). IPPN is a topical ibuprofen so it is anti-inflammatory, and IPMP is antibacterial. This cream is so gentle and works amazingly for calming down tender and inflamed pimples. Some spot treatments are hard to blend into skin and just kinda sit on top, but not this one! It’s super gentle and blends away into skin effortlessly, so it’s easy to wear under makeup. I recommend this to anyone with adult acne OR just anyone who wants to try a slightly different approach to treating their breakouts. I’ve really loved the results so far.

I only used to use this as a very effective spot treatment, but this saved me from a really weird, sudden breakout - like cystic acne around my mouth, chin and eyebrow areas. Suddenly thought of stopping using all of my other products for a while, and to use this all over my face as a "treatment" cream. Lo and behold, it worked! This only proved that this product deserves my holy grail spot. I'm definitely using this again as a whole face treatment when I breakout. I recommend this for anyone who gets hormonal and cystic acne, when you apply this to your active pimples before you sleep, when you wake up they're less inflamed and almost ready to heal. It's very, very cheap too.
