How it works
A gauze peeling pad combines a mild acid-soaked liquid with a textured gauze surface, so it does two jobs in one pass: a light chemical exfoliation and a light physical sweep. It is a rinse-off step, meaning it comes off the face along with the residue it lifts, unlike a leave-on toner that keeps working after you walk away. Judge it on how the skin feels right after rinsing and the next morning, not by how strong the sensation is while it is on. Consistency across days does more for a fair read than any single application, since a genuine change in how skin looks or feels builds gradually rather than all at once. It is the version sold on shelves in Korea rather than a formula reworked for a different market.
Key benefits
- Glycerin sits right near the top of the 26-ingredient list, a foundational humectant that draws in and holds surface moisture
- Wine Extract sits early in the 26-ingredient list, wine extract, the named ingredient behind this formula's antioxidant, exfoliating positioning
- Sodium Hyaluronate sits early in the 26-ingredient list, a salt form of hyaluronic acid that draws and holds water at the skin's surface
- Vitis Vinifera (Grape) Seed sits early in the 26-ingredient list, a grape-derived ingredient carried for its antioxidant reputation in this formula's emollient base
- Formulated as a pre-soaked pad from NEOGEN, sized for regular use in a routine
- Comes in a 30sheets format, sized for a toning step used right after cleansing
Inside the formula
Inside the formula
Is Dermalogy Bio-Peel Gauze Peeling Wine a leave-on toner or a rinse-off exfoliant?
It is rinse-off. The gauze pad is wiped over the face for under a minute and then rinsed away completely, unlike a leave-on toner that keeps working after application. As with any new step, give it a fair, consistent trial of a week or two before you decide whether to keep it in your routine, and stop if you notice ongoing irritation rather than pushing through it.
How often should I use it?
Two or three evenings a week is the usual pace; using it every night is more exfoliation than most skin needs. As with any new step, give it a fair, consistent trial of a week or two before you decide whether to keep it in your routine, and stop if you notice ongoing irritation rather than pushing through it.
Is this the same formula sold in Korea, or a version made for the US market?
This is the Korean-market formula, the same one sold on shelves in Korea rather than a version reformulated for US retail.
Can I use this if my skin runs sensitive?
This exfoliating pad is formulated with skin types like normal or combination skin in mind, but any new product is worth a patch test first if your skin reacts easily. A short patch test on the inside of your arm or behind an ear before it goes on your face is worth doing, and that goes for sensitive skin most of all.
How long before I will know if this is right for my skin?
Give it a full week or two of consistent use before you judge, since a single use rarely tells you much either way. Watch for how skin feels and looks rather than for any specific number, and stop use if you notice ongoing irritation.

Ingredient list read from inkeedecoder.com on 10 September 2026.
22 of 26 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.
- Disodium EDTA chelator
- EDTA is a chelator: it locks up trace metal ions from water and packaging that would otherwise turn a formula cloudy, off-colour or rancid. It does nothing to skin and appears at a fraction of a percent.
- 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.
- 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.
- PEG/PPG-17/6 Copolymer solvent
- PEG/PPG-17/6 Copolymer is a water-soluble polymer used as a humectant and solubiliser. It keeps a formula fluid and helps oils stay dispersed.
- Tromethamine pH adjuster
- Tromethamine neutralises acidic thickeners such as carbomer so they gel, and holds a formula near skin-friendly pH. It is used at a fraction of a percent.
- Wine Extract plant extract
- Wine extract, carrying grape polyphenols including resveratrol. It is used as a plant antioxidant.
- 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.
- Rubus Fruticosus (Blackberry) Fruit Extract plant extract
- Blackberry fruit extract. Like the other dark berries it is rich in anthocyanins and is used as a plant antioxidant.
- Rubus Idaeus (Raspberry) Fruit Extract plant extract
- Raspberry fruit extract, carrying fruit acids, sugars and anthocyanins. It is used as an antioxidant-rich conditioning extract.
- Vaccinium Angustifolium (Blueberry) Fruit Extract plant extract
- Lowbush blueberry fruit extract, high in anthocyanins. Berry extracts are used as plant antioxidants and can tint a formula.
- Tartaric Acid exfoliant
- Tartaric Acid is the fruit acid of grapes and tamarind. It is an AHA, but it is used more often to adjust pH and bind metal ions than as the main exfoliant.
10 more explained
- 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.
- Lactic Acid exfoliant
- 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.
- Coptis Chinensis Root Extract plant extract
- Chinese goldthread root, a traditional herbal ingredient carrying berberine. It is bright yellow and is used in formulas aimed at the look of congested skin.
- Ci 15985 colorant
- Yellow 6 Lake is a synthetic orange-yellow dye fixed onto a mineral base so it cannot dissolve and bleed. It sits on the surface as a pigment.
- Alcohol Denat solvent
- Alcohol Denat. is ethanol with a bitter additive that makes it undrinkable, which is a tax rule rather than a formulation choice. It behaves like alcohol: a fast-evaporating solvent that gives a weightless finish and can feel drying at higher levels.
- PEG-60 Hydrogenated Castor Oil emulsifier
- PEG-60 Hydrogenated Castor Oil is a castor-oil-derived solubiliser. It is what keeps fragrance and oil-soluble ingredients dissolved in a watery formula so it stays clear.
- 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.
- Phenoxyethanol preservative
- Phenoxyethanol is the most widely used cosmetic preservative outside the paraben family. It keeps a water-containing formula from growing bacteria and mould, and is capped at one percent in most markets, so it always sits low on a list.
- 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.
- 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.

How to use
- Use the Dermalogy Bio-Peel Gauze Peeling Wine in the evening, after cleansing, on dry skin rather than damp.
- Wipe the gauze side over skin to exfoliate. Dab skin with the embossed side.
- Wait a minute, then carry on with a hydrating layer and your moisturizer the same evening.
- Start at two or three evenings a week and build from there. Do not use it in the same routine as another exfoliating acid or a retinoid.
Worth knowing
- Rinse fully; this is not a leave-on step.
- Wear sunscreen every morning while using it, since exfoliated skin is more sensitive to light.
- Keep it to a few evenings a week rather than daily.
