The Potions - skincareinhawaii review for Cica Smooth Peeling Pad

🪵 The Potions Centella Asiatica Smooth Peeling Pads Review 🪵 Star Ingredients: {3} Alcohol {5} Glycerin {6} PHA [Gluconolactone] 🪵 Notable Mentions: [11] Allantoin [17] Mugwort Extract [18] Centella Asiatica Extract [19] Vitamin E [20-22] The Green Calming Complex - Price: $23.79 (Corēelle) - Size: 60 Pads (textured & flat sides) - Rating: 5/5 ~ Pads: These hypoallergenic peeling pads can soothe irritated skin and yet keep our skin smooth & healthy. They are 100% pure embossed cotton that helps in removing dead skin cells to keep our skin smooth while still being gentle enough for sensitive skin. ~ INCI List: These pads also contain a PHA (Gluconolactone) which can very gently help remove dead skin cells & skin impurities such as excessive sebum from our pores. But, this also contains their Green Calming Complex which is made of asiaticoside, asiatic acid, madecassic acid (3 components of centella), & portulaca oleracea extract that can help to calm & soothe our skin. Of course, I also have to give credit to the mugwort extract that is in here that really helps calms my redness & irritation throughout all seasons. Ingredients such as allantoin & treahalose also make this a great all-around mixture of ingredients that can help with hydration, protect our skin from environmental stressors, and maintain great overall skin health. ~ Usage + [Before & After Photos]: I use this as my first step in the morning and you can see how much comes off my face in the morning 😳. I pretty much use this as a quick cleanse to start my morning routine and the inclusion of some alcohol helps to be a degreasing step and prep my skin to absorb all my other skincare products effectively. ~ P.S. The alcohol never irritated my skin in any way. 🪵 Final Conclusion: If you’re someone that doesn’t cleanse or doesn’t want to cleanse in the morning I highly recommend this as a morning first step and I overall highly recommend it. I love the ingredients and it’s very calming even though it has some gentle exfoliating properties. ~ Recommended for: All Skin Types *pr, but my review is completely honest. 🙃
