How it works
The MAKEUP REMOVER is a 125ml product. The active it is built around is Allantoin, named seventeenth on its own ingredient list. The same list carries Guaiazulene, Lactic Acid and Glycolic Acid, so the active is not the only thing on it worth naming. How much of the Allantoin stays on the skin, and for how long, is decided by the product format rather than by the list alone. HERA sells this Allantoin product in Korea, and this is that version.

Key actives
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. On this product's own ingredient list it is named seventeenth.
Guaiazuleneactive
Guaiazulene is the deep blue compound distilled from chamomile and guaiac wood, and it is what colours a blue formula naturally. It is used for the look of reactive, reddened skin. It is named twenty-first on this product's list, alongside Allantoin.
Lactic Acidexfoliant
Lactic Acid is a larger AHA than glycolic, so it works nearer the surface and is easier on skin, and it is a humectant as well as an exfoliant. It is the AHA of choice for dry skin. It is named fifteenth on this product's list, alongside Allantoin.
Glycolic Acidexfoliant
It loosens the bonds between dead surface cells and is used for the look of dullness and rough texture. It is named twentieth on this product's list, alongside Allantoin.
Tocopherolantioxidant
Tocopherol is vitamin E. It is an oil-soluble antioxidant that protects the oils in a formula from going rancid and works on skin as an emollient, and it is regularly paired with vitamin C because each keeps the other going for longer. It is named twenty-fifth on this product's list, alongside Allantoin.
What else is on the list besides Allantoin?
Guaiazulene, Lactic Acid and Glycolic Acid. The order they are printed in on this product's panel is the order on the box, so you can see where Allantoin sits relative to them. Further down the same panel: Tocopherol, Cetyl Ethylhexanoate and Sodium Hyaluronate.

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 As we age, the glue that holds our skin cells together becomes denser, which slows down the natural cell turnover process.

1 more professional perspective
People with dry, flaky skin are more likely to see a benefit from using vitamin E because it enhances moisturization.
