Hada Labo AHA/BHA Mild Peeling Lotion 170ml

I bought this product at Guardian. 

The packaging is very simple, with a lid. Hardly any scent, but a little bit medicinal if you smell closely. It feels very watery, and the liquid is transparent. 

I use it with a cotton pad to wipe my face. I discover if you put it in a spray bottle and spray on the face, and then wipe, it saves liquid. 

The price is impressive compared to other AHA/BHA products. 

This product is different than usual AHA/BHA products because it uses gluconic acid instead of glycolic acid or salicylic acid usually found in the market. 

I would recommend this product if a person is looking for a cheap alternative. 

Bought the product after using the facial foam from this line and was curious about this particular lotion. For around the clock oiliness on my skin, this is truly a saviour. My skin gets dull and lackluster over the years. So the chemical exfolient properties in the product had helped to bring the luminescence back into my skin. Despite having oily skin, my skin gets dry after I washed it. However, putting this lotion on does not make it worse as I feared initially. In fact, my skin texture improves over time. Becoming smoother and clearer. It also minimises the appearance of acne. Nevertheless, it is not mattifying whatsoever. The state of oiliness on my skin continues and does not dramatically change with usage. I used it once daily and that works well for me. I wouldn't recommend the same to dry or sensitive skin as it could be a bit too harsh. So spare usage is best.

I had only tried the Hada Labo hyaluronic acid but was given the chance to redeem my Favful points for this mild peeling lotion. Most of Hada Labo products are my favourite as it didn't cause any break outs, no irritations occur and no heat sensation/ tingling effect ever happen. I've used the cleansing oil, facial cleanser, hyaluronic acid and lastly this product. Thank you so much Favful for this lovely gift. I'm loving it so much. 

I can see that the scars of my acnes started to fade after few applications. I also have a dry skin problem, so this lotion is like a life saver for me. It moisturise my skin for all day. Besides that, I also use the bio miracle water spray to add the staying power. It sure gives a dewy look to my skin. I only need t apply foundation which helps to protect my skin against UV rays. Then, I dab some powder on my face to complete the look. My dull skin (when it get dry) completely wiped away, that's what makes happy, haha.

However, I do not recommend to use it at night as my skin feels oily when I woke up in the morning. I hate that feeling as it makes my skin sticky, but it can be washed away by cleansing. If you don't mind that, you can have it as your nght regime as well. 

Where to buy this product: Guardian, Watsons, any drugstores and large chain supermarket

Would you recommend this product: YES!! Obviously!! It's going to be worth it, but if you do have a Hada labo Hyaluronic acid, then this is not a compulsory.
