ConsI wanted to repurchase it, but it was discontinued, which was disappointing. However, the main ingredient, aharaneun, is not that important, so it's not a big deal.

It's applied like a lotion, left on, and then rinsed off with water.
ConsThis was my first time using a lotion-type AHA product, but I didn't really notice any outstanding effects. For my oily skin with a lot of buildup, the lotion formulation doesn't seem to be very effective. Also, the product contains acid ingredients that can clog porous oily skin, so those with oily skin may want to avoid it. This product would likely work better for those with dry skin.
TipIndeed, when using AHA exfoliating products, it's important to find the right usage pattern and duration that works for your skin. For those with combination skin, it may be fine to only apply it to the areas with more buildup, rather than all over the face, to avoid irritating the more sensitive areas.

The exfoliation works really well, and after rinsing, my skin becomes so smooth and soft. The next day, my makeup applies really well too. I've also tried the sulfur mask, but I liked this one much better.
ConsI have acne-prone skin, and when I use this especially when I have a lot of acne or after popping pimples, it really stings... It itches and feels extremely stinging. But I just endure it and rinse it off after 30-40 minutes. It's not unbearable, and even though it stings, I've never had any breakouts or skin issues because of this!
TipThe level of stinging seems to vary from person to person. I tried it on my boyfriend who has great skin, and he said he didn't feel much.

Among Isoul's products, the AHA and Skin Relief Cream is famous for creating that 'peeled egg' skin. My forehead and cheeks become especially smooth and supple. If AHA works well for you, you'll see immediate effects, especially in the beginning. I'm still a bit scared, so I only do the wash-off and haven't started applying it and leaving it on yet, haha. But I can definitely see the exfoliating effects! Once I get more comfortable with it, I think it would be great to use a small amount as a night cream as well.
Cons- When you first apply it, it can be stinging, so you should only use a small amount and rinse it off within 5-10 minutes. In my case, my cheeks and chin felt a bit prickly, and they were reddened right after rinsing. But after using it 1-2 times, you get used to it. AHA seems to adapt well to the skin once it gets accustomed to it. Even when I didn't use it for 6 months and started again, there was hardly any stinging. - There is a characteristic sour smell of the acid... This makes me hesitant to use it frequently. Personally, I find the smell unbearable, on par with the sulfur mask. But using it once a month is still enough for it to do its job effectively. - It's hard to use up the 100ml within the 1-year shelf life. I should only need to use it once a week or every two weeks, so I wish they had a smaller 50-70ml size option.

It's great that you don't need to exfoliate by scrubbing the skin.
ConsIf you use this after popping pimples, it's terrible. When the skin is sensitive, it hurts and causes more blemishes. It seems to have a lot of AHA, so it can be a bit irritating.
TipBe sure to use it at the right time. Otherwise, as this is a somewhat irritating product, it may cause skin troubles.

When applying a small amount, the skin condition is noticeably improved the next day. There is no visible peeling or flaking, which is great. A few blemishes have also cleared up, so it's an absolute win-win.
ConsAt first, it does sting quite a bit when applying. But after using it a few times, the stinging sensation becomes much less noticeable. This is just an inherent characteristic of the AHA product, so it's not really a major issue with the product itself.

It also contains a higher amount of AHA ingredients.
ConsAfter using this, I'm afraid to use any other AHA exfoliants. The stinging was bearable, but my skin turned over completely. It became bumpy and swollen, like hives, and it took several weeks to calm it down. I'm not sure if it's the ingredients themselves or just this product that doesn't suit me, but the impact was so significant that I can't use AHA products anymore.
TipThose who have seen good results from using AHA ingredients may want to give this a try. In the winter, when my skin is peeling like a snake, I'm going to slather this all over my arms and legs TvT.

ConsAt first, it felt quite irritating and painful, but after getting used to it, it turned out to be a really great product!!
TipIf you can bear with it a couple of times, it will no longer be painful at all!

I heard that AHA and BHA are good for exfoliating, and this was the first product I tried on my face. Since I started using this for exfoliation, it's the only one I've been using. To be honest, as someone who is really lazy, this is just great. After using it for a while, I get used to it, so I just apply it like a lotion once or twice a week and then put on my basic skincare on top before going to bed.
ConsThere is a bit of a stinging sensation. The product also has a distinctive scent, which I think is from the AHA ingredients, and I've noticed that scent in other AHA products as well.
TipAfter exfoliating, you must thoroughly apply sunscreen!
