What the gurus are saying

Gurus praise how calming and soothing it feels from the first application, with several noting it has made a noticeable difference to congestion and blackheads when used twice weekly. The 1.5% salicylic acid concentration is strong enough to help minimize pores and clear buildup, but the aloe-heavy base keeps it gentle, which means those with truly sensitive skin may want to patch-test first since it does contain grapefruit extract despite having no scent. The formula works on both face and body, and one expert reported the first bottle lasted a very long time.

"It soaks in and sets to a natural slight radiant finish, but it feels very calming and soothing the second you apply it. It's got aloe and propolis extract, great for fighting acne. It's got panthenol, a great antioxidant, and then it's also got that Hationia cordata soothing extract ingredient in there. Really lovely product, and it's certainly worth checking out. You can use it on face or body."

"It's really soothing. It does have grapefruit extract in it. It doesn't have a scent, however if your skin is super super sensitive keep that in mind there's no scent but it is in there. I probably wish they would have just left it out but anyway worth checking out for most people especially oily or dry skin."

"It smells of nothing which is great because some of them I think as a kid of the '90s often those chemically astringent smells they don't do it for me. This is great and it's super super gentle. I'm now on bottle two of this and the first one lasted me such a long time. I use it twice a week and my skin absolutely loves it and has made a real noticeable difference to the blackheads particularly on my nose."

BESTSELLING KOREAN SKINCARE 2024 - What We All Bought
"The reason I think this is so popular is it has a 1.5% concentration of salicylic acid, great for minimizing pores and stripping out any congestion. But actually the base of this is aloe, and so if you want that calming soothing ultimate aloe experience and a dose of salicylic acid together, this kind of makes sense. It's vegan, cruelty-free, it's ticking a lot of boxes. Not surprised it's on the bestsellers list."
