What it is
Combining exfoliating ingredients*1 such as lactic acid with 27 moisturizing ingredients*3, including Recalca's first proprietary ingredient, Root W(R)*2, we've successfully designed a unique new formula that can be used daily while still providing exfoliation. This exfoliating lotion loosens the skin's surface (stratum corneum), promoting the penetration*4 of the next serum you apply, leading to the skin's desired future. \ Point 1 / {Softens dead skin cells and regulates cell turnover} Recalca's unique blend of three exfoliating ingredients - lactic acid, naturally derived salicylic acid*5, and honey extract - creates a gentle formula that can be used daily. It softens dead skin cells and regulates cell turnover, leading to smoother skin texture, transforming everyday skincare into special care. \ Point 2/ {The uniquely formulated ingredient Root W(R)*2 enhances the effects*7 of Vitamin C*6} Vitamin C*6 conditions oxidized skin*8, which causes thickened keratin, and the combination with the uniquely formulated ingredient Root W(R)*2 creates a synergistic effect, leading to clearer skin. \ Point 3/ {Moisturizing power is increased by 12% compared to previous products, preventing skin damage*9 caused by dryness.} In addition to rose water*10, one of Recalca's signature ingredients, this product contains four other natural ingredients*11, including tremella fuciformis extract, peony flower extract, and aloe vera leaf extract. It has 12% more moisturizing power than previous products, and is a specially formulated exfoliating product that addresses skin damage*9 caused by dryness. *1 Lactic acid, ammonium lactate, Wintergreen tea leaf extract (natural salicylic acid), honey extract (Hawaiian white honey) *2 Bletilla serrata root extract (moisturizing ingredient), Gentiana gentiana root extract (moisturizing ingredient) *3 Rosa centifolia flower water, Rosa damask flower water, Rosa centifolia flower extract, betaine, urea, 3-O-ethyl ascorbic acid, Gentiana gentiana root extract, Bletilla serrata root extract, Eberico extract, Sophora flavescens root extract, yeast extract, allantoin, dipotassium glycyrrhizate, Peony flower extract, Tremella fuciformis extract, glutathione, chlorella vulgaris extract, Aspergillus/soybean seed extract fermented extract, Bilberry leaf extract, tripeptide-1, tripeptide-3, acetyl tetrapeptide-59 amidoethoxyethoxyacetyl dipeptide-67, hydrolyzed swiftlet nest extract, sorbitol, glycerin, propanediol, BG (all moisturizing ingredients) *4 Up to the stratum corneum *5 Wintergreen tea leaf extract*6 VC ethyl (3-O-ethyl ascorbic acid) (skin conditioning ingredient)*7 Moisturizing effect*8 Stratum corneum*9 Rough skin*10 Centifolia rose flower water*11 Eberico extract, Sophora flavescens root extract, Chlorella extract, Bilberry leaf extract (all moisturizing ingredients)

How to use
First after washing your face, dispense an appropriate amount (3-4 pumps) into your palm and gently massage it into your face, avoiding the corners of your eyes and lips. Then, spread it over your entire face and gently press it in with your hands to blend it in. Use as a toner before applying serum or cream. If you feel a strong tingling sensation from the natural lactic acid, dilute it with purified water in your palm until your skin becomes accustomed to it. For non-reddening clogged pores or blackheads around the nose, we recommend soaking a cotton pad with an appropriate amount and applying it to the problem area for 5-10 minutes as a cotton pack.

Moisturizing, for night use.
It leaves my skin feeling smooth and refined. Recalca isn't flashy, but I trust its many high-quality products. It was a renewed product this year, and I think it's been a hot topic among beauty lovers. When you hear the term "exfoliating care," you might think of dry skin, but it also has strong moisturizing properties, and leaves my skin feeling smooth and refined the next morning. I'm also interested in the cream and serum, so I'll try buying some.
I bought this because I've been seeing it a lot on Instagram. I'm prone to getting whiteheads and acne under my chin, as well as clogged pores that cause white bumps. It does sting in sensitive areas, like the red area under my nose, but it's a really good product. It softens the skin. It can sting after strong stimuli like scrubbing your face, or after removing makeup (perhaps after using cotton pads), so be careful, but it doesn't cause redness and subsequent skincare products penetrate well. It doesn't dry out your skin at all. Even if you want to use the entire line but are worried about the price, why not try just this lotion for now?
I've been using this ever since it was released. It provides gentle exfoliation, so I have fewer skin problems when I use it.
I've been using several bottles since before the renewal, and when I start to get breakouts, I put this on and it calms them down! It's a lotion that I want to keep on hand at all times.
