COSRX Red Rice Inositol Wash-Off Peeling Serum 80ml

Features

COSRX Red Rice Inositol Wash Off Peeling Serum is a hydrating, wash-off peeling solution designed to refine skin texture and care for pores. This serum features a unique transforming texture that starts as a watery serum and creates mild gommage upon rolling to gently lift away dead skin cells and impurities. Its distinctive pink hue is derived naturally from Vitamin B12, rather than artificial colorants, and it is formulated to be gentle enough for daily use, though 2-3 times per week is recommended depending on skin condition.

Benefits

This multi-care solution targets skin texture, blackheads, whiteheads, and excessive sebum. By clearing away old dead skin cells and deep-seated impurities, it helps improve skin smoothness and clarity without leaving the skin feeling tight. The formula is designed to balance oil and moisture levels, resulting in a clearer, more transparent complexion. It is suitable for those concerned with rough skin, visible pores, and those seeking a gentle, irritation-free exfoliating routine that leaves the skin feeling hydrated.

Main Ingredients and their effects

Niacinamide: Included to assist with excessive sebum control and provide brightening care. AHA, PHA, and B5: A triple-acid and vitamin complex designed to gently exfoliate dead skin cells and refine overall skin texture. Phytic Acid: A natural acid sourced from rice that effectively targets dead skin cells, blackheads, and whiteheads. Panthenol and Ceramide: These ingredients are included to provide soothing moisture and hydration, ensuring the skin remains comfortable after the peeling process.

Clinical test results

Clinical trials conducted by the Derma Cosmetic Skin Science Research Institute (Jan 12, 2026 – Feb 25, 2026, 20 subjects) demonstrated significant efficacy. After one use, the product showed a 32.35% improvement in blackhead and whitehead appearance, a 30.19% improvement in pore impurities, and an 86.41% improvement in pore sebum. Improvements were also noted in pore tightening, including a 42.08% improvement in pore volume and a 39.67% improvement in pore area. Furthermore, skin texture (roughness and unevenness) improved by 16.98%, and dead skin cell improvement was recorded at 93.98%.

Usage instructions

After cleansing, apply an appropriate amount to a dry face, avoiding the eye area. Gently roll the serum over the skin for approximately 1 to 2 minutes until the gommage forms and impurities are lifted. Rinse thoroughly with clean water. This product can also be used on other areas requiring exfoliation, such as elbows, arms, legs, knees, heels, and the back of the hands. If the product has been exposed to freezing temperatures for a long time, shake it lightly before use.
