REVIEW ON SO NATURAL RED PEEL TINGLE SERUM

Hi beautiful,

Looking for a dupe to the famous The Ordinary red serum?  

Here is a Korean dupe, So Natural Red Peel Tingle Serum.  I got this after looking up all sort of peel online.  This is not a sponsored product and not sponsored post. 😄  I gave up trying to look for that western one and just got this Korean tingle serum instead.

I have acne prone combination sensitive skin so always I am interested in acne prone products.

Packaging: It comes in a box with Hangul and also some English instructions.  It has simple dropper bottle.

Ingredients talk: 

Ingredients:
Water, Hydrogenated Poly(C6-14 Olefin), Triethylhexanoin, Isododecane, Trilaureth-4 Phosphate, Pentaerythrityl Tetraisostearate, Butylene Glycol, Cetyl Phosphate, Neopentyl Glycol Diheptanoate, Panthenol, Cetyl Alcohol, Arginine, 1,2-Hexanediol, Chlorphenesin, Polyglyceryl-10 Laurate, Polyglyceryl-10 Myristate, Glycerin, Fragrance, Citrus Paradisi (Grapefruit) Fruit Extract, Melia Azadirachta (Neem) Leaf Extract, Melia Azadirachta (Neem) Flower Extract, Sodium Hyaluronate, Betaine, Coccinia Indica (Ivy Gourd) Fruit Extract, Corallina Officinalis Extract, Acorus Calamus (Sweet Flag) Root Extract, Perilla Ocymoides (Beefsteak Plant) Leaf Extract, Rubus Fruticosus (Blackberry) Fruit Extract, Melaleuca Alternifolia (Tea Tree) Leaf Extract, Fragaria Chiloensis (Strawberry) Fruit Extract, Centella Asiatica (Gotu Kola) Extract, Rubus Chamaemorus (Cloudberry) Seed Extract, Panax Ginseng Berry Extract, Rubus Idaeus (Raspberry) Fruit Extract, Vigna Angularis Seed Extract, Lactobacillus Ferment

Paraben free, sulfate free, alcohol free, Eu allergen free, silicone free.  Not fungal-acne safe (malassezia). The ingredient being Pentaerythrityl Tetraisostearate, Polyglyceryl-10 Laurate, Polyglyceryl-10 Myristate

The top ingredients are mostly for skin condition, making the texture of the serum less terrible and more hydrating.  There is surfactant in the top list also.

After the fragrance, it is mostly plant extracts which is supposely help with peeling and being more gentle.

Check the ingredients since there are many ingredients and there can be potential allergen for some people.

Texture: It has the texture of viscious liquid but not to the point of being gel.  The scent is honestly not the best thing in the world as it smells just like burned plastic and this is with very minicusle fragrance added to better the scent.  I can't imagine how bad it will smell without fragrance.  However, I can put up with it since it is not more than 1 minute on my face.

Review: You will need to apply two dime size amount if you want it to look red like the picture of their advertisement.  Applying too little is probably not going to be enough to work on the skin.  If you picked on your skin, that area is going to sting a lot the moment this serum touches your face.  It is  recommended to use not more than 1 min as it can damage the skin barrier.

It does tingle from the moment it is on my skin up to the moment I wash it off.  I can imagine it will hurts a lot more if you have very sensitive skin or never use any form of peeling products before.  I apply a lot moisturising, calming products after this serum. 

It does make my skin smoother and reduce the appearance of blackheads, whiteheads.  My skin does look brighter and better after using it once a week for a month.  It does reduce acne and pimples provided that you use it correctly.

Overall: It is a good peeling products for people looking for exfoliation that is as strong as one that can be done in skin clinic.  I do think it is a gentler dupe of the red serum but still it is not recommended to use it more than once per week (not more than 1min).  Use sunscreen to protect the skin during the day and hydrating products to calm the skin after using this serum.

It does not irritate the skin at all or cause any redness.  I find that it reduce the inflammation and redness on my skin and being gentle at the same time.  If you have light acne, it works best when applied at night before moisturiser.  I applied it everyday on my acne prone area and it keeps the area clear.  I find that it is gentle enough for everyday usage and works to clear those underground acne that does not come up to head given some time.  I find it does take a longer time such as few days to start seeing results compare to the past formulation.

It is just a little more expensive for the amount you get.

Overall: Dr. Ceuracle Tea Tree Purifine 95 Essence is a good effective gentle essence fungal safe for acne prone skin.

Tarami grape jelly (seasonal fruit).

This is an seasonal available jelly from Nagasaki, Japan.  This one I have is grape jelly which does contain alcohol.  It has safflower and gardenia in it.  I really like the thoughtfulness of removing the skin from the grape already.  It has taste of safflower with a very light scent of sake (wild guess).  Sweetness is just right and I think it is pretty tasty. It reminds me of osmanthus jelly.
