How it works
The panel on this formula names four forms of tea tree rather than one: Melaleuca Alternifolia (Tea Tree) Leaf Water, Melaleuca Alternifolia (Tea Tree) Leaf Oil, Melaleuca Alternifolia (Tea Tree) Leaf Extract, Melaleuca Alternifolia (Tea Tree) Extract. Tea Tree Leaf Water is the distillate, used in place of plain water as a base. It carries a trace of the plant's aroma and none of the essential oil's strength. On this panel it sits alongside Lactobacillus Ferment, Dipotassium Glycyrrhizate and Allantoin. Lactobacillus Ferment is the liquid left after lactobacillus bacteria have fermented a plant or milk substrate. It carries the small molecules the fermentation produced, including lactic acid and amino acids, and is used for the look of dull, uneven skin.
Key benefits
- Four forms of tea tree on one panel, not a single token inclusion
- Lactobacillus Ferment on the same panel, the formula's ferment
- Dipotassium Glycyrrhizate on the same panel, the formula's active
- Korean GS1 barcode matched against a Korea sourcing supplier's record for this item
Key actives
Melaleuca Alternifolia (Tea Tree) Leaf Water
Tea Tree Leaf Water is the distillate, used in place of plain water as a base. It carries a trace of the plant's aroma and none of the essential oil's strength.
Melaleuca Alternifolia (Tea Tree) Leaf Oil
Tea Tree Leaf Oil is an essential oil from an Australian shrub, carrying terpinen-4-ol. Korean formulas use it in products aimed at blemish-prone skin; it is potent, aromatic, and one of the essential oils most likely to bother reactive skin.
Melaleuca Alternifolia (Tea Tree) Leaf Extract
Tea Tree Leaf Extract is the water-based extract rather than the essential oil, so it is far milder and much less aromatic. It is used in formulas for blemish-prone skin.
Lactobacillus Ferment
Lactobacillus Ferment is the liquid left after lactobacillus bacteria have fermented a plant or milk substrate. It carries the small molecules the fermentation produced, including lactic acid and amino acids, and is used for the look of dull, uneven skin.
Dipotassium Glycyrrhizate
Dipotassium Glycyrrhizate is a water-soluble salt derived from licorice root. It is the licorice fraction Korean formulas use for the look of redness, and it is far more stable in water than the whole extract.
Allantoin
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.
What does Melaleuca Alternifolia (Tea Tree) Leaf Water do in this formula?
Tea Tree Leaf Water is the distillate, used in place of plain water as a base. It carries a trace of the plant's aroma and none of the essential oil's strength. It is named on this product's own ingredient panel.
Is Allantoin also in this formula?
Allantoin sits in the middle of the ingredient list as a settling, comfort-focused ingredient common across Korean toners and creams. It sits alongside Melaleuca Alternifolia (Tea Tree) Leaf Water on MEDIHEAL's ingredient list for this product.
How is this toner pad used in a routine?
Take one pad and sweep it evenly across the face, working outward from the center. Follow with the next step of the routine. It works as an early routine step, right after cleansing and before serum.
Who is this toner pad suited for?
Sensitive skin, Normal skin are the best fit for this toner pad. Patch test on the inner arm before first full use, as with any new skincare product.

How to use
- Take one pad and wipe outward from the centre of the face with the textured side.
- Spend a little longer on the nose and chin, where residue tends to collect.
- Turn the pad over, press the smooth side back on, then follow with a light moisturiser.
- Do not scrub congested areas, since friction makes the surrounding skin look angrier rather than clearer.
Worth knowing
- Patch test on the inner arm before first full use, as with any new skincare product.
