Exfoliating Aqua Peeling Gel with Green Tea, Vitamin E & Hyaluronic Acid, 3.38 fl.oz | Non-Abrasive Gentle Facial Exfoliant & Scrub, Korean Skincare

This solution is easy to use and very effective!

It's an okay product. It has like cotton in it, which when you use you can't tell if your dead skin are being take off or it's just the cotton. Won't buy again

I love this exfoliator. My skin feels so soft after I use it. I'm tempted to use it every day, but that would be overkill. Highly recommended.

Easy and quickly removes dead skin layer.

You can't even get this product on your face before it balls up. Not sure if it even works. They want you to think that the ball is exfoliating but it's just the product balling up not the dry skin on your face.

MOTHER MADE Exfoliating Aqua Peel Gel with Green Tea, Vitamin C, Hyaluronic Acid, 3.38 fl.ozI don't generally use physical exfoliants on my skin because I use and prefer chemical exfoliants (AHAs, BHAs, PHAs), but I have come to really like Korean Peeling Gels because they incredibly gentle. This one from Mother Made is great and combines elements of chemical and physical exfoliation.Like all peeling gels of this type, you apply it to skin and gently massage in circular motions until the product balls up and falls off your skin, then you rinse your face. There is cellulose in all of these formulas to create the bunching effect and provide the gentle exfoliation. Formulas vary in what else they include.The Mother Made version leaves your skin feeling really soft and moisturized without irritation. Smells fruity and a little earthy (probably the lavender). It doesn't contain alcohol. It uses green tea, vitamin c, salicylic acid and some mild AHAs, but as the gel is only on your skin for about 30 seconds, I don't find the acids to be irritating even though I use chemical exfoliants in my routine. Some folks with sensitive skin may have problems with the lavender oil in this however.I really like this gel and would repurchase.Key Ingredients:Antioxidant: Ascorbyl GlucosideSkin brightening: Ascorbyl GlucosideSkin-identical ingredient: Sodium Hyaluronate, ArginineSoothing: AllantoinFull Ingredients:Water, Cellulose, Dipropylene Glycol, 1,2-Hexanediol, Camellia Sinensis Leaf Water(10,000Ppm), Ascorbyl Glucoside, Salix Nigra (Willow) Bark Extract, Carica Papaya (Papaya) Fruit Extract, Sodium Hyaluronate, Adansonia Digitata Seed Extract, Chlorella Vulgaris Extract, Lavandula Angustifolia (Lavender) Oil, Citrus Aurantium Bergamia (Bergamot) Fruit Extract, Morus Alba Bark Extract, Pyrus Malus (Apple) Fruit Extract, Allantoin, Trehalose, Xylitylglucoside, Anhydroxylitol, Xylitol, Arginine, Oleth-10, Hydroxyethylcellulose, Disodium EDTA

I'm pretty impressed with this product. This is my first experience with the Mother Made brand, but not my first gommage-style exfoliator or peeling gel. I can feel the difference in my skin after using this...both the skin on my face and the skin on my fingertips.For those unfamiliar with gommage exfoliators, they rely on the interaction of enzymes and manual manipulation (rubbing) to break down the topmost layer of skin, revealing the fresher, younger cells underneath. One of the unique things about this type of exfoliation is the visual evidence of it--little white balls that many folks think are all those dead skin cells. And while there are some skin cells in the mix, those little balls are actually made up mostly of the used exfoliating product. A helpful analogy is a pencil eraser. After you use the eraser, you see little balls that do include some bit of paper, but you see a lot more used rubber from the eraser. In this case, the exfoliator is the eraser, which is why this kind of product is called "gommage". It literally means "to erase".Mother Made Exfoliating Aqua Peel Gel with Green Tea is very gentle and non-irritating to use. It is a vegan and cruelty-free formula that feels pleasant, and yeah...those little 'eraser balls' are bizarrely satisfying to see! But the best thing about this stuff is that it actually works! It isn't super dramatic, but whose skin wants drama?! Not mine, that's for sure. And that's why my skin loves this product so much. And so does my budget, because it is very affordable, too. And, of course, regular exfoliation means your other more expensive products can actually work better, stretching your skincare dollars even further.This has been a great introduction, and now I look forward to trying other Mother Made products in the future. In the meantime, I enthusiastically recommend this peeling gel, especially for gommage newbies. I think you'll find it fun to use, and I'm sure you'll love the results!I hope my experience with this product might help YOU make a more informed purchase. Happy shopping!

The Mother Made Exfoliating Aqua Peel Gel comes in a.3.38oz poly-plastic green and white tube and is a product of Korea. Sells for ~$23. The “peel” is a lightweight white gel base with a hint of soft sandy grit (dissolving cellulose). Along with the physical exfoliating texture, the formula also has willow bark extract and several essential oils and plant extracts (papaya, bergamot, lavender). No “added fragrance” but you can pick up on the hints of essential scents.Says on the instructions you can use this 3x a week. I have sensitive skin and found it best to limit use to 1x a week. I regularly use chemical exfoliants to manage my acne, so I don’t want to risk over-exfoliating.Is not drying or stripping. I would ease into using this; patch test first. Likely suitable for most users, assuming you are not allergic or sensitive to the ingredients (see images). I wish they would stop putting lavender and bergamot in seemingly everything. I say seemingly everything as it seems to be on trend in Korean skincare the last couple of years to add them. I’m sensitive, like I said, and sometimes just those two essential oils can cause problems for me.
