Pros

This product is perfect for instantly treating skin when dead skin cells are severely flaking and sebum mixes with them, making your complexion look dull. I've been using it for a long time, so it's not too harsh for me. However, if I haven't used it in a while, it can cause a slight tingling sensation. The next day, my skin feels as smooth as a peeled egg, which is why this is a must-have on my vanity. Initially, there's a slight tingling when applied, but now I don't feel anything. I apply it right after toner and serum, skipping moisturizer. These days, I'm using retinol, so I only use this once or twice a month to avoid potential irritation. I really hope they never discontinue this product!

Cons

There are no downsides. AHA is a strong exfoliating ingredient, so the tingling sensation is to be expected.

Tip

Pro tip 1: After cleansing, apply toner then AHA. Wait 30 minutes to an hour, then rinse with water. Follow up with a high-concentration serum or functional skincare product. This seems to improve absorption, and you'll wake up to plump, firm skin the next day. Pro tip 2: If your face is super sensitive, you can use this on areas like elbows, knees, ankles, or heels for exfoliation. I also apply it on my back and chest when I have severe back or chest blemishes, and it seems to help fade scars faster!

Pros

Using this product makes your skin smooth. There's a noticeable difference in texture. However, it shouldn't be used too frequently, and it's important to follow the recommended usage time.

Cons

It stings a bit, but that's unavoidable. Try to endure it. The tingling sensation disappears after a few minutes anyway.

Pros

Writing this review to remember for myself. Wow, this deserves full marks! My redness had become so severe that I was looking for a product with absolutely no physical irritation. I stumbled upon this by pure chance and decided to buy it. I'm absolutely in love with it! The emulsion formula causes zero irritation. I was worried because I've had blemishes from misusing AHA products before, but this one's fine. I hate products where you can't tell if they're working or not, but this one's effects are clearly noticeable - I can really feel my blackheads fading. The price is affordable too. After washing my face, my forehead is super glowy! It's my first time trying an Isoi product, and my first impression is fantastic.

Cons

It's a shame Olive Young doesn't sell it. The shipping cost is annoying. Oh well, I'll just buy two and be done with it.

Pros

This is truly a holy grail product, let me tell you... As someone with sensitive skin, I can't do physical or chemical exfoliation well. But when I tried this product by chance, it didn't cause any skin irritation. The next day, I noticed my skin texture had improved and sebum production had decreased significantly. Since then, I've gone through two bottles. I only use it once or twice a week, so it takes a long time to finish a bottle. Please never discontinue this product!

Cons

This is the best for me... Just please don't discontinue it... I Sol is affordable, and when you find a product that suits you, it becomes a lifelong staple.

Tip

Leave it on for about 15-20 minutes, then rinse off with water. Follow up with a sheet mask and cream before bed, and the next morning your skin texture will be glowing.

Pros

I tried using it on the small bumps on my back. At first, the effects weren't dramatic, but there was a slight improvement. Just about that much, you know? Haha. And I recently learned that 10% AHA is actually not considered a very high concentration.

Cons

The smell is extremely sour and unpleasant. I haven't tried washing it off with water yet, but I wonder if that would help reduce the odor? After applying this and lying down to sleep with an emulsion on top, the sour, unpleasant smell emanates from my entire body. It's unbearable. In conclusion, the effect on body blemishes wasn't dramatic. If it were up to me, I'd recommend a 2% salicylic acid pad instead.

Pros

I've been using this product for years, primarily for dead skin cell removal. I'm grateful it's still available, as there aren't many products in Korea with 10% AHA. Its emulsion formula leaves skin soft when applied thinly to desired areas, left for 10-15 minutes, then rinsed off. However, those with thin, super sensitive skin should reduce application time or avoid use altogether. I use it sparingly on my chin and nose area for whiteheads, no more than once or twice a week, as my facial skin is thin and can become red and tingly if misused. Individual results may vary, so use cautiously. For body use, I apply it once a week without rinsing, which effectively removes dead skin cells without irritation. Avoid applying to wounds as it can sting. It works wonders on rough elbows and knees!

Cons

There are no real drawbacks, but it's crucial to adjust the application time based on your skin condition. Be cautious about overusing it on your entire face.

Pros

I think I made a great purchase through Hwahae shopping, using my points and getting some excellent benefits. The delivery was incredibly fast too! I've used various AHA products before, so I was familiar with how to use this one. Among the AHA products available on the market, this is one of the more affordable options, which I think is its biggest advantage - you can use it without worrying about the cost. I'd definitely recommend this to anyone looking for an AHA product!

Cons

I saw another review mentioning that the packaging needs improvement, and I really hope they do make those changes.
