Key benefits
- Rolls away rough patches: quaternium-60 and carbomer form the gel that gathers as you rub, so the exfoliation is friction you rinse off.
- Three acid types on one list: glycolic acid, capryloyl salicylic acid and gluconolactone add a chemical exfoliation to the rinse-off step.
- Tone-focused support for the body: niacinamide and tranexamic acid sit side by side, fourteenth and fifteenth on the list.
- Comfort alongside: bisabolol, centella asiatica extract and nine forms of hyaluronic acid are on the same list.
- Made for the body: the brand names the back, elbows, chest, underarms, shoulders and buttocks as the areas it is for.
Key actives
14Niacinamideactive
Vitamin B3, used for the look of uneven tone. It is named fourteenth on this list, directly ahead of tranexamic acid.
15Tranexamic Acidactive
An amino acid derivative Korean formulas use for the look of uneven tone. It is named fifteenth here, and in a rinse-off spray its contact time is the length of the rub.
16Glycolic Acidexfoliant
An AHA that loosens the bonds between dead surface cells, used for the look of rough texture. It is named sixteenth on this list.
22Capryloyl Salicylic Acidexfoliant
A lipid-soluble salicylic acid derivative, used for the look of congested pores and rough texture. It is named twenty-second on this list.
24Gluconolactoneexfoliant
A PHA, the gentlest exfoliant class. It is named twenty-fourth on this list.

How do I use the Dr. Melaxin Peel Shot TX Spray?
Spray an even amount onto dry skin on the area you want to smooth, rub gently until the gel gathers and rolls, then rinse thoroughly with lukewarm water. Start with a couple of sessions a week, and moisturize the area afterwards so the skin does not feel tight.
Where on the body is the Peel Shot TX Spray meant to be used?
On the body. The brand names the back, elbows, chest, underarms, shoulders and buttocks. For the face, the Peel Shot Exfoliating TX Serum is the rinse-off gel that carries the same niacinamide and tranexamic acid pairing.
Does the Peel Shot TX Spray contain kojic acid?
No. Its list names niacinamide and tranexamic acid, with glycolic acid, capryloyl salicylic acid and gluconolactone as the exfoliating acids. Kojic acid belongs to a different product, the Peel Shot Exfoliating Kojic Acid Turmeric Spray.
Does the Peel Shot TX Spray contain fragrance?
Yes. Fragrance is tenth of thirty-four entries on the ingredient list printed on this page. If fragrance components are something you avoid, choose an unscented exfoliating step for the body.
Not on the ingredient list below: denatured or SD alcohol, essential oils, silicones, parabens, sulfate surfactants, mineral oil or petrolatum and added color.

Ingredient list read from drmelaxin.us on 2 October 2026.
32 of 34 explained
- Water solvent
- Water is the base almost every serum, toner and cream is built on. It dissolves the water-loving ingredients and sets how light the finished texture feels. On an INCI list it is usually first, which only means it is the largest single ingredient by weight.
- Propanediol humectant
- Propanediol is a plant-derived glycol used in place of propylene glycol. It hydrates, carries actives into solution, and gives a lighter, less sticky slip than glycerin at the same strength.
- Carbomer thickener
- Carbomer is a synthetic polymer that only gels once a base neutralises it, which is why arginine or tromethamine sits nearby on the list. It gives the clear, non-stringy gel texture a xanthan formula cannot reach.
- Glycerin humectant
- Glycerin is the most used humectant in skincare. It draws water into the outer layer of skin and holds it there, and it is one of the very few ingredients whose hydrating effect is settled science rather than marketing. Higher amounts feel tacky, which is why it is usually blended.
- Quaternium-60 thickener
- A clay-based thickener modified to work in oil phases. It gives a stick or a balm body and stops pigments settling.
- 1,2-Hexanediol humectant
- 1,2-Hexanediol is a glycol used for two reasons: it holds water like glycerin, and it makes a formula harder for microbes to live in, so less traditional preservative is needed. Korean formulas use it heavily for that second reason.
- Glycereth-25 PCA Isostearate emollient
- Glycereth-25 PCA Isostearate is a water-dispersible emollient that softens skin and helps oils and water stay mixed. It reads as light rather than rich on the skin.
- Propylene Glycol humectant
- Propylene Glycol is a small glycol used as a humectant and solvent. It hydrates and helps actives dissolve; newer formulas often swap it for propanediol, which does the same job with a lighter feel.
- Sorbitol humectant
- Sorbitol is a sugar alcohol used as a humectant. It hydrates like glycerin with a smoother, less sticky finish, and it adds a little body to watery textures.
- Fragrance fragrance
- Fragrance, or Parfum, is a single declaration standing for a whole scent blend, which can be dozens of materials. Regulators allow it as a trade secret, so a list showing only this word does not say what the scent is made of. It is the most common trigger named by people with reactive skin.
- Saccharide Isomerate humectant
- A plant-sugar complex whose structure resembles the sugars already bound to the skin surface, so it stays through washing. It is used as a long-acting humectant.
- Hydroxyacetophenone preservative booster
- Hydroxyacetophenone is an antioxidant that also strengthens a preservative system, so a formula needs less traditional preservative. Korean formulas pair it with 1,2-hexanediol constantly.
20 more explained
- Ethylhexylglycerin preservative booster
- Ethylhexylglycerin softens skin and boosts a preservative system, which is why it is nearly always sitting beside phenoxyethanol or 1,2-hexanediol. It also cuts down the odour bacteria produce, so it turns up in deodorising products.
- Niacinamide active
- Niacinamide is vitamin B3, and it is the most studied active in Korean formulation. It is used at roughly 2 to 5 percent for the look of uneven tone and visible pores, and it is water soluble, stable and comfortable beside almost every other active, which is why it turns up in so many lists.
- Tranexamic Acid active
- Tranexamic Acid is a synthetic amino acid derivative used for the look of stubborn discolouration and post-blemish marks. It is water soluble, stable and comfortable next to niacinamide, which is how it is usually paired.
- Glycolic Acid exfoliant
- Glycolic Acid is the smallest AHA, which is why it is also the most penetrating and the most likely to sting. It loosens the bonds between dead surface cells and is used for the look of dullness and rough texture.
- Citric Acid pH adjuster
- Citric Acid is used in tiny amounts to bring a formula to the pH its actives need, not as an exfoliant at that level. It is an AHA, so at much higher concentrations it can also exfoliate.
- Sodium Citrate pH adjuster
- Sodium Citrate is the salt of citric acid, used as a buffer: it holds a formula at a steady pH rather than pushing it in one direction. It is also a mild chelator.
- Bisabolol active
- Bisabolol is the main active fraction of chamomile oil, usually supplied from candeia wood. It is used for the look of redness in formulas for reactive skin, and it helps other ingredients absorb.
- Butylene Glycol humectant
- Butylene Glycol is a small glycol that does two jobs at once: it holds water in the top layer of skin and it dissolves plant extracts and actives that plain water cannot. It also thins a formula, which is why watery Korean essences lean on it.
- 3-O-Ethyl Ascorbic Acid antioxidant
- 3-O-Ethyl Ascorbic Acid is a stable vitamin C derivative that skin converts to ascorbic acid. It survives in a formula far better than pure vitamin C and works at a gentler pH, so it suits skin that finds the pure acid uncomfortable.
- Capryloyl Salicylic Acid exfoliant
- Capryloyl Salicylic Acid is salicylic acid with a fatty tail, sometimes sold as LHA. It stays nearer the surface than salicylic acid and works at a higher pH, so it exfoliates more evenly and more gently.
- Centella Asiatica Extract plant extract
- Centella Asiatica is the plant behind the whole cica category, sold as gotu kola or Madagascar centella. Its extract is the anchor of Korean formulas built for easily reddened skin, and its work is done by four triterpenes: asiaticoside, madecassoside, asiatic acid and madecassic acid.
- Gluconolactone exfoliant
- Gluconolactone is a PHA, the gentlest exfoliant class. Its molecule is too large to penetrate quickly, so it smooths the surface without the sting of an AHA, and it is a humectant at the same time.
- Hexylresorcinol active
- Hexylresorcinol is a resorcinol derivative used for the look of dark spots and uneven tone. It is one of the stronger non-prescription tone ingredients.
- Dimethylsilanol Hyaluronate humectant
- Dimethylsilanol Hyaluronate is hyaluronic acid joined to a silicon-based group. It hydrates and leaves a smoother, silkier finish than hyaluronic acid alone.
- Hydrolyzed Hyaluronic Acid humectant
- Hydrolyzed Hyaluronic Acid is hyaluronic acid cut into much shorter fragments. The smaller the fragment, the further into the outer layer it can settle, which is why serums stack several sizes together instead of using one.
- Hyaluronic Acid humectant
- Hyaluronic Acid is a sugar chain the body already makes, and one gram of it can hold several litres of water. In a formula it is a humectant that pulls water to the surface of skin and holds it in a film, which is what makes skin look plumper while it is there.
- Sodium Hyaluronate humectant
- Sodium Hyaluronate is the salt of hyaluronic acid, and it is what most products labelled hyaluronic actually contain. The salt dissolves more readily and the molecule is smaller, so it sits in the outer layer of skin rather than only on top of it.
- Hydroxypropyltrimonium Hyaluronate humectant
- Hydroxypropyltrimonium Hyaluronate carries a positive charge, and skin carries a slight negative one, so it is attracted to the surface and stays through rinsing. It is the hyaluronic used where a formula gets washed off.
- Sodium Hyaluronate Crosspolymer humectant
- Sodium Hyaluronate Crosspolymer is hyaluronic acid linked into a mesh. It holds water in a soft gel on the surface rather than sinking in, and it releases that water slowly through the day.
- Sodium Acetylated Hyaluronate humectant
- Sodium Acetylated Hyaluronate is hyaluronic acid modified to be part oil-loving, so it clings to skin instead of rinsing away. Formulators call it the one that stays put.

How it works
Rough elbows and uneven patches on the back rarely change with body lotion alone. This spray goes onto dry skin and is rubbed until it rolls: quaternium-60 and carbomer gather into crumbs, so the exfoliation is friction you rinse away. Niacinamide and tranexamic acid sit side by side near the middle of the list for the look of uneven tone, with glycolic acid, capryloyl salicylic acid and gluconolactone adding a chemical edge. Rinse thoroughly and moisturize the area afterwards.
How to use
- Spray an even amount onto dry skin on the area you want to smooth.
- Rub gently in circles until the gel gathers and rolls; do not press hard, because pressure adds irritation rather than results.
- Rinse thoroughly with lukewarm water.
- Moisturize the area afterwards, and skip freshly shaved or irritated skin.
Worth knowing
- The list names Fragrance, so skip it if fragrance components are something you avoid.
- Three exfoliating acids are on this list, so skip freshly shaved or irritated skin.
- It is a body product; the brand directs it to the back, elbows, chest, underarms, shoulders and buttocks.
