COSRX Low pH Good Night Soft Peeling Gel is a mild exfoliating cleanser formulated with PHA (polyhydroxy acid) and natural cellulose. Designed for sensitive skin, this gel gently removes dead skin cells and impurities without the use of harsh physical scrubs or aggressive chemical peels. The low pH formula helps maintain the skin’s natural acid barrier, supporting a balanced and comfortable complexion during and after cleansing.

The exfoliating action relies on natural cellulose fibers that pick up and lift away surface debris without abrasive friction. PHA offers a gentle chemical exfoliation that is well-tolerated by reactive skin types while also providing hydration, unlike stronger acids such as AHAs or BHAs. This combination can contribute to a smoother texture and a more even skin tone over time.

This product is not tested on animals, aligning with cruelty-free skincare practices. The 4.05 fl oz (120ml) bottle provides a practical amount for regular use. The gel has a soft, lightweight texture that transforms into a non-sticky, easily rinseable residue. It is alcohol-free and fragrance-free to reduce potential irritation, making it suitable for daily or alternate-day use depending on individual skin tolerance.

As a Korean skincare product, this peeling gel can be incorporated after a basic cleanser to prepare the skin for serums or moisturizers. It works effectively on normal, oily, combination, and dry skin when sensitivity is a concern. The formula is free from parabens, sulfates, and phthalates. COSRX emphasizes straightforward, effective formulations for everyday skincare routines. This peeling gel provides an uncomplicated exfoliation step that supports a radiant appearance without compromising skin comfort.
