Core Efficacy
Gentle Exfoliation & Improving Roughness
Loosens the adhesion between corneocytes (skin cells) to accelerate the shedding of dead skin. This improves skin roughness, dullness, and keratosis pilaris ("chicken skin"), leaving the skin delicate and smooth.
Unclogging Pores & Improving Blackheads/Acne
Penetrates deep into pores to dissolve sebum plugs, reducing blackheads, whiteheads, and closed comedones. It also refines pore appearance and regulates sebum secretion.
Brightening & Fading Pigmentation
Accelerates melanin metabolism to improve acne marks, sun spots, and post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation (PIH), brightening the overall complexion.
Promoting Collagen Regeneration & Anti-aging
Stimulates the synthesis of collagen and elastin in the dermis, improving fine lines and dry lines while increasing skin elasticity and radiance.
Moisturizing & Repair
Enhances skin hydration capabilities and boosts barrier function, leaving the skin soft and supple after use.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q
What is the difference between the liquid and crystal forms of this product?

For over-the-counter skincare products such as serums and toners, concentrations typically range from 5% to 10%. For professional medical aesthetic peeling treatments, higher concentrations may be used under professional supervision.
Q
How should this ingredient be stored to maintain its quality?
It should be stored in a sealed container in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated environment, away from direct light, moisture, and high temperatures. It must also be kept away from strong oxidants and alkalis to prevent degradation.
