Key actives
Glycolic Acidsurface-renewing AHA
Glycolic Acid is the smallest AHA molecule, included to lift away the dulling buildup of dead surface cells and leave the next skincare step able to sit closer to fresher-looking skin underneath.
Lactic Acidgentle AHA
Lactic Acid is a gentler AHA than glycolic, chosen for skin that wants surface renewal without the sting a stronger acid can bring, and it doubles as a humectant while it works.
Sodium Hyaluronatehydrating humectant
Sodium Hyaluronate is the humectant carrying the water-binding job in this formula, drawing moisture into the surface layers and giving the texture the cushioned, dewy slip that a Korean essence or serum is known for.
Phytosphingosinebarrier lipid
Phytosphingosine is a barrier lipid precursor included to support skin that feels compromised, tight or reactive after over-cleansing or over-exfoliating.
Ceramide NPbarrier lipid
Ceramide NP is one of the lipids that make up the skin's own barrier cement, included to help a compromised or over-exfoliated barrier feel less reactive and less prone to moisture loss through the day.
How to use
- Smooth two to three drops over cleansed and toned skin morning and evening, patting gently until absorbed before a moisturizer.
What is the so natural Red Peel Tingle Serum 35ml?
Red Peel Tingle Serum 35ml is so natural's concentrated serum (35ml), formulated as treatment step in a Korean skincare routine. It suits sensitive, dry, normal skin types, and it is sourced here as the authentic Korean-market formula rather than a US-shelf reformulation.
How should I use the so natural Red Peel Tingle Serum 35ml?
Smooth two to three drops over cleansed and toned skin morning and evening, patting gently until absorbed before a moisturizer. Working it in this order keeps the concentrated texture behaving the way so natural formulated it to, rather than rushing straight to the next step in the routine.
How often should I use this serum?
Morning and evening, or evening only for a stronger treatment active, worked in gradually if skin is new to it. Consistency across a full skin cycle of several weeks matters far more than an occasional use for a serum like this one, since most of its benefit shows up with steady, repeated application.
Who is this serum best suited for?
This serum is best suited for sensitive, dry, normal, combination skin, particularly anyone dealing with dull, rough surface texture. Introduce gradually alongside other acids to avoid overloading a routine that already exfoliates.
What are the key ingredients in this serum?
The formula lists Glycolic Acid, Lactic Acid and Sodium Hyaluronate among its ingredients, alongside the rest of the base that carries them across the skin. Each one is named here in the exact form it appears on so natural's own ingredient list, not inferred from the product name.

How it works
Red Peel Tingle Serum 35ml is so natural's concentrated serum (35ml). Glycolic Acid is the smallest AHA molecule, included to lift away the dulling buildup of dead surface cells and leave the next skincare step able to sit closer to fresher-looking skin underneath. Lactic Acid is a gentler AHA than glycolic, chosen for skin that wants surface renewal without the sting a stronger acid can bring, and it doubles as a humectant while it works. The concentrated texture sinks in without a greasy residue, leaving skin feeling smoothed and hydrated without a sticky after-feel. It sits in a Korean routine as the treatment step, best layered after essence and before a moisturizer.
Worth knowing
- Introduce gradually alongside other acids to avoid overloading a routine that already exfoliates.
- Introduce gradually if skin is new to acid exfoliation, watching for stinging on first use.
- Patch test on the inner arm before a first full-face application if skin tends to react easily.
- Store away from direct sunlight and high heat to keep the texture and scent stable over time.

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

Ceramides are part fatty acid and part amino acid and are able to be the grout that keeps the building blocks of the skin together and functioning as a barrier between the inside and outside world.
