What can the product work for?

Cleansing

What does the product description say?

Brand from South Korea MEDI-PEEL. Benefits This slightly alkaline cleanser helps remove dead skin cells, makeup residue and excess sebum in the skin.

Source: Yesstyle

This product works by removing dirt and oil from the surface of the skin. It uses a combination of mild cleansing agents (coco-glucoside, glyceryl stearate se, glycol distearate, hydroxypropyl methylcellulose, lauric acid, myristic acid, stearic acid) and should be able to cleanse the skin gently. Still keep in mind that any cleansing can disrupt the skin barrier, and most people do not need to cleanse their skin more than once per day.

Even though this formulation is mild, the following cleansing agents could trigger an irritation or allergy for some people: coco-glucoside

coco-glucoside 1% - 1.2%

Irritation risk:

Concentration: Effectiveness: HIGH

Used as a cleansing agent (surfactant) in cleansers. Helps water and oil mix together in lotions. Can be irritating

glyceryl stearate se 1.1% - 1.4%

Irritation risk: Comedogenicity: Medium

Concentration: Effectiveness: HIGH

Used to stabilize the product formulations and works as an emollient

glycol distearate 1.4% - 1.7%

Irritation risk:

Concentration: Effectiveness: HIGH

Helps water and oil mix together

Exfoliation

This product can help exfoliate the skin. In other words, it helps break down the bonds between dead cells on the surface of the skin and speed up the skin turnover. Skin often appears softer and brighter after exfoliation, but overdoing it can result in disrupted skin barrier. The following ingredient is doing the exfoliating job in this product: capryloyl salicylic acid.

capryloyl salicylic acid 0.25% - 0.5%

Irritation risk:

Concentration: Effectiveness: HIGH

gluconolactone 0.25% - 0.5%

Irritation risk:

Concentration: Insufficient!

A polyhydroxy acid (PHA) that helps shed the dead cells from the skin surface revealing smoother skin. Is believed to be genter than AHAs. It helps attract water to the upper layer of the skin and can stimulate production of skin's own hyaluronic acid resulting in improved hydration levels. It has been shown to be helpful against acne and clogged pores if used consistently (e.g over a period of 12 weeks) in high enough concentration. It can help reduce fine lines and wrinkles and improve skin tone with long-term application. Can help neutralize free radicals

Can contain potent anti-oxidant compounds (abbreviated ECG, GCG, EGC, and EGCG) that might help protect the skin from free radicals. Can help calm down inflammation and has some anti-bacterial properties. Unfortunately, these antioxidants are unstable and lose their effectiveness very quickly in products. The concentration of the antioxidant compounds in the extract also tends to be low to be effective in topical formulation
