WA SO SEN Gel Exfoliant Adlay 200g

When your skin looks dull and feels rough, a gentle exfoliating step can make a real difference. The WA SO SEN Adlay Peeling Gel is massaged over the face, where it lifts away dead surface skin cells and buildup without rough scrubbing.  After rinsing, skin feels smooth and fresh, and makeup goes on more evenly.

This gel pairs adlay seed extract, a classic Japanese beauty ingredient, with a blend of fruit acids and papain for a thorough yet gentle polish. Squalane and sodium hyaluronate help skin feel comfortable afterward, so there is no tight, stripped feeling. The generous 200 g tube lasts for many weeks of once- or twice-weekly use, and it has a light scent. 

This gel suits normal, combination, and oily skin with rough-feeling texture or dullness. Because it contains AHAs, salicylic acid, and fragrance, skip it on broken or irritated skin, and if your skin is very sensitive, patch test first.
