medicube Hypochlorous Acid Peel Shot offers an innovative approach to exfoliation, combining gentle physical peeling with carefully selected ingredients for skin prone to excess oil and imperfections.
Unlike traditional scrubs containing coarse particles, this exfoliating serum features a distinctive gommage texture that changes during application. As the formula is massaged onto dry skin, it forms small particles that help lift away surface impurities, dead skin cells and excess sebum.
The formula features hypochlorous acid, an ingredient known for its purifying properties and increasingly used in skincare for blemish-prone complexions. Charcoal powder complements the formula by helping remove surface impurities and excess oil.
Rice bran water and rice extract, ingredients traditionally valued in Korean skincare, contribute to a softer, smoother and more refreshed appearance.
To balance the exfoliating action, the formula also includes panthenol, allantoin, beta-glucan, ceramide NP and hyaluronic acid. These ingredients help maintain skin comfort, support the moisture barrier and reduce the feeling of tightness after rinsing.
With regular, appropriate use, skin feels cleaner, smoother and softer, with a more refined texture and refreshed appearance.
Ideal as an occasional skincare treatment, medicube Hypochlorous Acid Peel Shot is particularly suited to combination, oily and blemish-prone skin experiencing roughness or dead skin cell buildup.
Suitable for normal, combination, oily and mature skin, particularly when uneven texture or dead skin cell buildup is a concern. It may also suit acne-prone skin, provided it is not applied directly to open, inflamed or damaged blemishes. Very sensitive or reactive skin should patch-test first and avoid excessive rubbing.
Recommended for:
- Rough and uneven skin texture
- Dead skin cell buildup
- Excess sebum
- Visible or congested pores
- Blackhead-prone and blemish-prone skin
- Dull and tired-looking complexion
- Lack of smoothness and freshness
Did you know?
Hypochlorous acid is also naturally produced by the human body.
Certain immune cells generate hypochlorous acid as part of the body's natural defense mechanisms. In skincare, it is used in specially formulated products intended to support skin care and cleansing.
Another interesting fact: the small particles formed during a gommage peel are not made entirely of dead skin cells. They largely result from ingredients in the formula binding together during massage.
In medicube Hypochlorous Acid Peel Shot, this distinctive texture helps lift away surface impurities without relying on coarse abrasive particles.
