How it works
Green Barley Mild Peeling Gel is a peeling gel, a physical exfoliating step used once or twice a week rather than daily. The gel rolls small particles off the skin's surface as it is massaged in, lifting flaking, dry skin cells along with it. It is a treatment step layered into the cleansing part of a routine, not a daily cleanser. Because it works by friction rather than an acid, the after-feel is a smoother surface rather than any deeper change to the skin. Rinsed off after the massage, it is followed by the rest of a normal routine, starting with toner.
Key benefits
- What it is: a 120ml peeling gel from innisfree, for an occasional exfoliating step.
- On the ingredient list: Butylene Glycol, Glycerin, Allantoin, confirmed on this product's own manufacturer list rather than assumed from the category.
- Fits into the routine: massaged over cleansed skin and rinsed, a couple of times a week rather than daily.

How often do I use Green Barley Mild Peeling Gel?
Once or twice a week is the usual frequency for a physical peeling gel. Using it more often than that can leave skin feeling raw rather than smoother. That holds true whichever size or variant of this product you buy, so the same placement in a routine and the same answer apply across the line.
Do I use it on wet or dry skin?
Dry or slightly damp skin works best; a fully wet face can stop the gel from rolling into the small particles that do the exfoliating. That holds true whichever size or variant of this product you buy, so the same placement in a routine and the same answer apply across the line.
Where does it go in a routine?
As part of the cleansing step, before toner, on the days you use it. It replaces neither your regular cleanser nor a chemical exfoliant. That holds true whichever size or variant of this product you buy, so the same placement in a routine and the same answer apply across the line.
Can I use it with other exfoliating treatments?
Space a physical exfoliant like this one out from any other exfoliating step in your routine, using them on different days rather than layering both on the same night. That holds true whichever size or variant of this product you buy, so the same placement in a routine and the same answer apply across the line.
Is it safe for sensitive skin?
A physical exfoliant can feel like too much for very reactive skin; patch test on a small area first and start with once a week. That holds true whichever size or variant of this product you buy, so the same placement in a routine and the same answer apply across the line.

How to use
- Apply it to dry or slightly damp skin, avoiding the eye area, and massage in small circles until you feel the gel roll into fine particles. Rinse fully with water, then follow with the rest of your routine; use it once or twice a week rather than daily.
Worth knowing
- Use it once or twice a week rather than daily, since over-exfoliating can leave skin feeling raw.
- Avoid the eye area and any broken or irritated skin while massaging it in.

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.
