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 thirty-third.
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. The panel names it eighth on this product's list, beside Allantoin.
Brassica Oleracea Italica (Broccoli) Sprout Extractplant extract
Broccoli sprout extract. Sprouts carry far more sulforaphane than the mature head, which is why the sprout is declared separately. The panel names it tenth on this product's list, beside Allantoin.
Laminaria Japonica Extractplant extract
Laminaria Japonica is kombu kelp. Its extract carries alginates, minerals and iodine, and it is used as a hydrating, mineral-rich ingredient. It is named eleventh on this product's list, alongside Allantoin.
Salicornia Herbacea Extractplant extract
Glasswort, the hamcho that grows on Korean tidal flats. It concentrates sea minerals as it grows, so its extract is used as a mineral-rich hydrating ingredient. It is named twelfth on this product's list, alongside Allantoin.
How to use
- Apply as the last step of your routine, morning and night, smoothing over the face and neck until absorbed.
Is this the Korean-market product or a US version?
The Korean-market one, Allantoin 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.
What else is on the list besides Allantoin?
Beta-Glucan, Brassica Oleracea Italica (Broccoli) Sprout Extract and Laminaria Japonica Extract. 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: Salicornia Herbacea Extract, Sargassum Fulvellum Extract and Gelidium Cartilagineum Extract.

How it works
The Sensitive Hydro Soothing Gel is a 80ml product. The active it is built around is Allantoin, named thirty-third on its own ingredient list. The same list carries Beta-Glucan, Brassica Oleracea Italica (Broccoli) Sprout Extract and Laminaria Japonica Extract, 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. This is the Original Korean Formula, the product isoi sells in Korea, Allantoin and all.
Worth knowing
- Introduce any new product gradually rather than adding several new steps to a routine at once, so a reaction is easy to trace back to the right cause.
- Patch test on a small area first and wait a day before applying it to the full face, especially the first time you use it.
