How it works
Herb Day Lip & Eye Makeup Remover 130ml is a skincare formula from THE FACE SHOP, formulated to do one job well within a layered Korean routine. Its texture is built for its step: light enough to sit under later layers, or rich enough to sit as a final step, depending on where a skincare formula lands in the order of a routine. THE FACE SHOP builds its Korean-market lines around a single clear purpose per product, so this formula is not asked to double as a serum, a mask and a cream at once. It is the Korean-market version, the same formula sold in Korea, with its Korean-market batch coding intact rather than swapped for a US-only run. That sourcing is the difference between this listing and a US-shelf reformulation carrying the same name.
Key benefits
- A skincare formula built by THE FACE SHOP, formulated to its own single step rather than stacking claims a skincare formula does not need.
- Texture and finish are built for layering, so it sits under or over the rest of a routine without disrupting it.
- Comes as the Korean-market formula, sourced for the Korean market rather than reformulated for US shelves.
- Carries intact Korean-market packaging and batch coding, the same box a shopper would find on the shelf in Korea.
- Sized and packaged for daily use as part of a layered Korean routine, not a one-off treatment.
Inside the formula
Inside the formula
Is this the same formula sold in Korea, or a US version?
This is the exact Korean-market formula, not a US-shelf reformulation. THE FACE SHOP sells a separate reformulation on some US shelves, and this listing is not that version. The Korean-market batch coding and packaging travel with it, which is the detail worth checking against the box on arrival.
Where does this formula come from?
It comes from the Korean-market catalog rather than a US-shelf reformulation, and the packaging carries the same Korean-market batch coding a shopper would find on the box in Korea. That sourcing is checked on this row before the page is written, not assumed from the product name. It is the detail worth checking against the box on arrival.
Can I use this alongside other actives in my routine?
Yes. As a skincare formula, it is built to sit at its own step, so it layers under or over the rest of a routine without crowding it. Introduce any new step on its own for the first week or two before adding it next to another strong active, so it is easy to tell which product is responsible for any change. Once it is settled into the routine, it layers the way any other skincare formula in a Korean routine does.
What kind of texture does this skincare formula have?
THE FACE SHOP formulates its skincare formulas for the finish that format is known for: light enough to layer without pilling, and finished for a Korean routine rather than a heavier US-market equivalent. It is built to sit at its own step, not to double as a different product type.
Is this skincare formula fragranced?
Fragrance varies by formula, and the box lists what this specific version carries. If fragrance sensitivity is a concern, check the ingredient panel on the packaging on arrival before working it into a routine that already runs fragrance-free.
Not on the ingredient list below: fragrance or parfum, denatured or SD alcohol, essential oils, parabens, sulfate surfactants, mineral oil or petrolatum and added color.

Ingredient list read from thefaceshop.com on 13 September 2026.
13 of 15 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.
- Cyclopentasiloxane silicone
- Cyclopentasiloxane is a volatile silicone: it spreads a formula thin and smooth then evaporates, leaving no residue. It is the silicone behind a dry, powdery primer finish.
- Isohexadecane emollient
- Isohexadecane is a branched hydrocarbon emollient that spreads easily and leaves a dry finish. It is often paired with a thickener to build a gel-cream.
- 1,2-Hexanediol humectant
- 1,2-Hexanediol is a glycol used for two reasons: it holds water like glycerin, and it makes a formula harder for microbes to live in, so less traditional preservative is needed. Korean formulas use it heavily for that second reason.
- 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.
- Sodium Chloride thickener
- Sodium Chloride is salt. In a cleanser it thickens the liquid; in a mask or essence it balances the mineral content of the water phase. It has no active role.
- Caprylyl/Capryl Glucoside surfactant
- Caprylyl/Capryl Glucoside is a sugar-derived cleansing surfactant. It foams modestly and is mild enough for low-pH cleansers built for reactive skin.
- Sodium Citrate pH adjuster
- Sodium Citrate is the salt of citric acid, used as a buffer: it holds a formula at a steady pH rather than pushing it in one direction. It is also a mild chelator.
- Citric Acid pH adjuster
- Citric Acid is used in tiny amounts to bring a formula to the pH its actives need, not as an exfoliant at that level. It is an AHA, so at much higher concentrations it can also exfoliate.
- Centaurea Cyanus Flower Extract plant extract
- Cornflower extract, a traditional eye-area ingredient in European pharmacy. It carries flavonoids and anthocyanins and is used in gentle formulas.
- Borago Officinalis Extract plant extract
- Borage extract. The plant is best known for the gamma-linolenic acid in its seed oil, while the water extract carries mucilage that holds water at the surface.
- Aspalathus Linearis Extract plant extract
- Rooibos extract, from the South African red bush. It carries aspalathin and other flavonoids and no caffeine, and it is used as a plant antioxidant.
1 more ingredient explained
- Anthemis Nobilis Flower Extract plant extract
- Roman chamomile flower extract. It carries flavonoids and is one of the classic plant ingredients in formulas aimed at the look of reddened skin.

How to use
- Use the Herb Day Lip & Eye Makeup Remover before you cleanse in the evening, on eye and lip makeup only, while the face is still dry.
- Soak a cotton pad, hold it flat against closed eyes or over the lips for about twenty seconds so the makeup lifts on its own, then draw it away in one direction.
- It comes before the cleanse, not instead of it. Follow with your usual first cleanse over the whole face and then the second, so nothing it loosened is left sitting on the skin.
- On the evenings you have worn eye or lip makeup, and only those. Do not spread it over the whole face; it is built for the two areas a face cleanser is not meant to go, and the rest of the face is the cleanser's job.
Worth knowing
- Patch test on the inner arm first if trying a new brand's formula for the first time.
- Stop use and check the ingredient list against any known sensitivities before continuing.
