Key actives
Niacinamideactive
Niacinamide is vitamin B3, and it is the most studied active in Korean formulation. On this product's own ingredient list it is named eighth.
Colloidal Sulfuractive
Colloidal Sulfur is elemental sulfur milled fine enough to disperse in water. It is used in masks and spot products for the look of congested, oily skin, and it carries its own faint sulphur smell. It is named fifteenth on this product's list, alongside Niacinamide.
Allantoinactive
Allantoin is a comfrey-derived compound used to condition skin and soften the outer layer so it feels smoother. It is one of the standard additions to a formula built for easily irritated skin. The panel names it eighteenth on this product's list, beside Niacinamide.
Salicylic Acidexfoliant
It loosens the dead cells that block pores and is used for the look of congested, oily skin. It is named thirteenth on this product's list, alongside Niacinamide.
Beta-Glucanpolysaccharide
Beta-Glucan is a polysaccharide from oats or yeast. It holds a large amount of water, forms a soothing film, and is one of the ingredients formulators reach for in products aimed at reactive skin. It is named thirtieth on this product's list, alongside Niacinamide.
How to use
- Use it dabbed directly onto a single targeted area after toner, rather than spread over the whole face. AM and/or PM.
Is this the Korean-market product or a US version?
The Korean-market one, Niacinamide and all. We match this product to its Korean barcode before it reaches the shelf, which is the check that tells you which market release you are holding.
Does this product contain fragrance?
Yes. The ingredient list names Limonene. It sits on the panel printed on this page, so you can read the position for yourself before you buy. If fragrance components are something you avoid, this product is not the one.
What else is on the list besides Niacinamide?
Colloidal Sulfur, Allantoin and Salicylic Acid. The order they are printed in on this product's panel is the order on the box, so you can see where Niacinamide sits relative to them. Further down the same panel: Beta-Glucan, Melaleuca Alternifolia (Tea Tree) Leaf Extract and Eclipta Prostrata Extract.

How it works
The Ctrl-A TeaTreement Soothing Spot is a 15ml product. The active it is built around is Niacinamide, named eighth on its own ingredient list. The same list carries Colloidal Sulfur, Allantoin and Salicylic Acid, so the active is not the only thing on it worth naming. How much of the Niacinamide stays on the skin, and for how long, is decided by the product format rather than by the list alone. This is the Original Korean Formula, the product Dr.Jart+ sells in Korea, Niacinamide and all.
Worth knowing
- Patch test this product on a small area and wait a day before using it more widely, especially with Niacinamide on the list.
- This list names Limonene, so skip it if fragrance components are something you avoid.
- Salicylic Acid on this list makes this product an exfoliating step, so do not stack it with another one on the same night.

What professionals say
What professionals say
What skin-care professionals say about the key actives in this formula, quoted from the medical sources linked beside each.
Allantoin can tone down the dryness of the individual cells. It increases the water content of the skin, which means it helps to hydrate and moisturize.
Wilma Bergfeld, MDDermatologist, Cleveland Clinic BHAs like salicylic acid get really deep into the pores, whereas the water-soluble ones don't go as deep.

Niacinamide helps reduce the appearance of pores in a few ways. By strengthening the skin barrier and improving elasticity, pores appear less noticeable and more even.
