Benton - PHA Peeling Gel

I have very sensitive skin (combo, dehydrated, flakes disgustingly around pimples) that freaks out to any sort of foaming or soapy cleanser, and I absolutely cannot tolerate AHAs or BHAs. I got this honestly because I really trust Benton as a brand (I've used their snail bee line and some other products for 4-5 years now and they're my holy grail--but YMMV, I know some peoples' skin hates snail). You put a big glob of this on cleaned, dry skin and start gently massaging in circles. What it'll do is start balling up into little white pieces that are kinda like torn up bits of wet tissue paper. Basically the cotton in this gel will ball up and also gently pick up some of the dead skin cells on your face as it does that. And then you just rinse it away with warm water and it leaves a slightly hydrating film on your skin (some people might hate that but I'm cool with it). I use this in the morning since I already have no makeup on, and I use it about every ~3 days. It helps with my dry patches and improves the look of makeup in those areas. The name "peeling gel" sounds really harsh but this is the gentlest thing I've ever used! If you like the rest of Benton products and have sensitive skin, I hope my review can be useful to you :) + Sorry for any possible typos! I didn't proofread.

the consistency is very interesting, like a cream, but then when you put it on your face and rub it around it balls up like your skin is peeling off. afterwards my face feels soft and I really enjoy this product as it is very gentle. good starting chemical exfoliant.

Ok so this peeling gel was recommended to me by an acquaintance but I have to say that I love the results. I have sensitive skin but it helps exfoliate the skin very smooth and afterwards my skin is super soft. I use it 3 times a week and it's already visible on my skin that I've gotten rid of those greasy bumps under the skin (note: I have clear skin but little imperfections on the forehead, the rest of my face is pimple free :D ).

I just loooooove this peeling gel! My skin is dry and gets easily irritated, especially by usual scrubs, but at the same time I have little bumps on my cheeks, not really spots or black dots, but just little texture. So I tried to order this peeling gel, seeing many people with sensitive skin recommend it, and it's just a miracle! My skin is like a baby bum now, without any irritation.

This product is the first chemical exfoliant I have ever used. I was kinda sceptical about chemical exfoliation as I my skin tends to get a bit sensitive sometimes, but after some research I decided on using a PHA for a first trial. I could not have been more happy I chose this one!! It's mild but you notice the difference after using it a few times. My pores just looked cleaner and my face a lot brighter. It's very moisturizing, which I did not expect at all, my skin feels super soft after using it, and it really helped with breakouts I had. It just seemed to calm them down a lot!! I really enjoyed this one xx

I used to use secret keys lemon peeling gel. This has way better ingredients and performs just the same. I only wish that it came in a bigger tube.

I've been using this along with Benton's BHA toner (also available on Yesstyle) and it's made my skin look and feel amazing. Benton is my favourite Korean skincare brand because the ingredients are amazing, it's affordable and always lasts for ages.

I've tried many products from Benton and they've all been amazing. I was really excited to try the peeling gel and I wasn't disappointed. This gently exfoliates the skin making it nice and smooth - a perfect canvas for makeup application. If you have sensitive skin but like the idea of using a physical exfoliant, this is the product for you.

This was my first foray into peeling gels, and this proved to be the right one for my super sensitive skin. I have dry skin, rosacea, and use 0.6% retinol 3x a week, so I couldn't even handle 5% mandelic acid. Using the peeling gel twice a week has been just enough to keep away dry patches and helps slightly with redness. Though, I'd recommend a higher percentage PHA for better redness reduction.

it’s a gentle cleanser but really does exfoliate!
over time the changes can be felt!
skin feels smoother

i love this product,i was surprised of the result it gives just after using it..the feeling of less impurities and a perfectly clean skin.

this peeling is super gentle to my overly sensitive and reactive skin, there was no irritation

this exfoliator is so gentle on my skin! it doesn't make me break out or leave my skin red or feeling raw. my skin always feels super smooth after I use it and I notice a brighter, more even complexion after continuous use. i use this product about twice a week and it helps keep my skin super soft. it is gentle enough to use when I have breakouts and helps with whiteheads, blackheads, and rough skin texture. will definitely be buying this again!
