Dr.Melaxin Peel Shot Exfoliating Kojic Acid Turmeric Spray is an exfoliating body spray designed to remove dead skin cells, refine uneven texture, and improve the appearance of dull-looking skin. Its formula combines kojic acid, turmeric extract, AHA and PHA exfoliating acids, niacinamide, and moisturizing ingredients to promote smoother, softer, and more even-looking skin.
The spray is particularly suitable for rough areas of the body, such as elbows, knees, arms, and legs. It can also complement skincare for areas prone to small bumps, uneven texture, and surface buildup.
The lightweight liquid formula is easy to apply using the spray nozzle. As it is gently massaged into the skin, small particles form on the surface, creating a gommage-style peeling effect. After rinsing, skin feels smoother and softer.
What Makes Dr.Melaxin Peel Shot Exfoliating Kojic Acid Turmeric Spray Special?
AHA and PHA for Smoother Skin Texture
The formula contains citric acid, an AHA, and gluconolactone, a PHA. These ingredients are used in skincare to help refine texture and remove dead skin cells.
Exfoliation helps improve the appearance of rough, uneven skin.
Kojic Acid for Uneven Skin Tone
Kojic acid is a cosmetic ingredient commonly used in products targeting the appearance of dark spots and uneven skin tone.
In this formula, kojic acid is present in a very small amount of 1,000 ppb, so its brightening effects should not be compared with those of concentrated depigmenting treatments.
Turmeric for Antioxidant Care
Turmeric Root Extract (Curcuma Longa Root Extract) contains plant-derived antioxidant compounds and complements the formula’s skincare benefits for dull-looking skin.
Niacinamide and Vitamin C for Radiance
Niacinamide helps promote a more even-looking skin tone, while Sodium Ascorbyl Phosphate, a stable vitamin C derivative, complements antioxidant skincare.
The formula also contains retinol. However, its unspecified concentration and short contact time do not support expectations comparable to leave-on retinoid treatments.
Convenient Spray Format and Gommage Effect
The spray applicator makes it easy to distribute the product over larger areas of the body and hard-to-reach places, such as the back.
During gentle massage, visible particles form and help lift away surface buildup. These particles also come from the product’s formulation and should not be interpreted as entirely dead skin cells.
