What it is
Mild exfoliating gel cleanser that lifts impurities while using triple AHAs and black rice extract to smooth texture and maintain a comfortable, hydrated feel.
Who it's for
- Normal, combination, or oily skin wanting gentle daily exfoliation in the cleanse step.
- Sensitive users preferring an unscented, low-foam cleanser (patch test recommended).
- Those looking to smooth texture without a separate leave-on acid step.
Key ingredients (INCI)
- Triple AHA blend — cosmetic exfoliation to smooth and clarify.
- Oryza Sativa (Black Rice) Extract — antioxidant, soothing support.
- Humectants (e.g., glycerin) — attract and hold moisture.

Free-from / texture
- Unscented, low-foam gel texture; rinses clean without tightness.

How to use & order
- Use morning and/or night on damp skin. Massage gently for 30–60 seconds.
- Rinse with lukewarm water; follow with toner and moisturizer.
- If double cleansing, use after an oil cleanser; start 3–4 times weekly if sensitive.
Conflicts & layering tips
- Avoid same-routine layering with strong leave-on acids or retinoids if skin is sensitive.
- Keep water lukewarm to minimize barrier disruption; follow with hydrating toner.
- Patch test if you have reactive or compromised skin.
Evidence & notes
