medicube Peel Shot Exfoliating Serum 2.7 fl.oz — BHA LHA PHA with Kojic Acid Brightening, Hydrating

This lightweight, leave-on formula targets dead skin buildup, visible pores, and excess sebum while helping skin look smoother and more even. It blends three exfoliating acids (BHA, LHA, PHA) with kojic acid and turmeric-inspired brightening support, plus hyaluronic acid and ceramides to maintain moisture. The texture is designed for daily to frequent use for those wanting a gentler alternative to physical scrubs or stronger chemical peels.

How does this serum exfoliate without over-drying?

Medicube Peel Shot uses a multi-acid approach where each acid plays a different role: BHA penetrates pores, LHA provides a slower, controlled exfoliation, and PHA helps remove surface flakes while being gentle. That trio helps reduce buildup while minimizing irritation. Hyaluronic acid and ceramides are added to replenish hydration and support the skin barrier so exfoliation doesn’t leave skin feeling tight.

• BHA: helps clear pore-clogging oil and debris.
• LHA: gently dissolves surface dead skin with slow action.
• PHA: provides mild surface exfoliation and hydration-friendly benefits.
• Hyaluronic acid + ceramides: restore moisture and barrier function.

Will it help with blackheads and excess oil?

The formula combines pore-targeting acids and sebum-regulating ingredients to visibly reduce congested areas and the appearance of blackheads. Regular application can help keep pores clearer and lessen the oily sheen that contributes to buildup. It’s suitable for use on oily and combination skin types when used according to instructions.

• Acid blend reaches inside pores to loosen trapped debris.
• Helps reduce surface oiliness that leads to blackhead formation.
• Non-comedogenic formulation to avoid new pore blockages.

Is the brightening effect safe for sensitive or post-spot-care skin?

Kojic acid and turmeric-inspired actives are included to help even tone and address dullness without using harsh bleaching agents. The product is low-irritation tested and designed to pair with calming, restorative ingredients so it can be used after spot treatments when skin is not inflamed or broken. Always patch-test and avoid application over open wounds or active irritation.

• Kojic acid: targets uneven tone and dullness gently.
• Turmeric-inspired extract: supports a brighter-looking surface.
• Low-irritation tested; avoid use on broken skin and perform patch test.

How should I incorporate it into my routine for best results?

Use as a leave-on exfoliating serum following cleansing and before heavier creams or sunscreen. Begin with a few times per week, then increase frequency as tolerated; daily use is possible for many skin types. Always follow with moisturizer and morning sunscreen to protect newly revealed skin.

• Step 1: Cleanse and pat skin dry.
• Step 2: Apply Peel Shot evenly to concerned areas.
• Step 3: Follow with hydrating serum/cream and SPF in daytime.
