Medicube Kojic Acid Turmeric Body Peel Shot
Description
Target persistent body discoloration, rough texture, and follicular congestion with the high-performance liquid exfoliant technology of the Medicube Kojic Acid Turmeric Body Peel Shot. Specially formulated for the thicker skin structure of the body, this Kojic Acid and Turmeric body peel treatment combines powerful enzymatic pigment inhibitors with a multi-depth acid complex. By clearing away hardened surface cells and suppressing melanin activity at the source, it effectively smooths strawberry skin (KP), brightens friction-induced dark spots, and restores a refined, luminous texture to body skin.
Performance Matrix
Multi-Acid Exfoliation & Follicular Purifying Dynamics
The active performance relies on a multi-depth acid architecture featuring AHA, BHA, PHA, and LHA. Alpha Hydroxy Acids (AHA) and Poly Hydroxy Acids (PHA) act on the stratum corneum surface to dissolve intercellular glue and loosen dead skin buildup. Lipophilic Salicylic Acid (BHA) and Capryloyl Salicylic Acid (LHA) penetrate deep inside the pore-follicle matrix to liquefy trapped sebum and hyper-keratinized debris, directly mitigating Keratosis Pilaris (KP) and body blemishes.
Targeted Pigmentation & Enzymatic Brightening
To correct friction dark spots (elbows, knees, inner thighs) and post-acne marks, the formula deploys Kojic Acid, Turmeric (Curcuma Longa) Root Extract, and Niacinamide. Kojic Acid and Turmeric act as potent tyrosinase inhibitors, stopping excess melanin synthesis triggered by friction or inflammation. Niacinamide interrupts pigment transfer to surface cells, while Glutathione neutralizes oxidative stress, visibly evening skin tone across targeted body zones.
Barrier-Cushioning Hydro-Soothing Base
To balance chemical exfoliation, the treatment incorporates Panthenol, Allantoin, Centella Asiatica Extract, and Hyaluronic Acid. This hydro-soothing base replenishes moisture within the intercellular matrix during the peeling process, preventing transepidermal water loss (TEWL) and minimizing cutaneous sensitivity or peeling irritation.
Skin Type All body skin types—especially rough, textured, hyperpigmented, or acne-prone body skin experiencing Keratosis Pilaris (KP), body blemishes, and uneven tone.
Concerns Keratosis Pilaris (strawberry skin), post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation (PIH), friction darkness on knees/elbows/inner thighs, body acne, rough skin texture, and dullness.
Texture A lightweight, fast-absorbing liquid fluid that glides effortlessly across body contours and dries down to a clean, non-tacky finish.
Usage Designed for application 2 to 3 times weekly after showering, or as needed for targeted body exfoliation.
Compatible Routines Apply to clean, dry body skin following cleansing with a gentle body wash. Allow the treatment to absorb for 1–2 minutes, then follow with a nourishing body lotion or barrier moisturizer to lock in hydration. For daytime exposure of treated areas, apply a broad-spectrum sunscreen.
