Learn how to use the MISSHA Super Aqua Ultra Hyalron Peeling Gel for gentle, hydrating exfoliation without irritation. Step-by-step routine for sensitive skin.

Quick answer

Use the MISSHA Super Aqua Ultra Hyalron Peeling Gel on dry skin after cleansing, gently massaging until dead skin cells pill away, then rinse with lukewarm water. Its 10 types of hyaluronic acids hydrate while exfoliating, making it safe for dry and sensitive skin.

Why this peeling gel works for sensitive skin

Traditional physical scrubs can cause micro-tears, especially on dry or reactive skin. The Super Aqua Ultra Hyalron Peeling Gel uses a cellulose-based formula that gently lifts dead skin cells without harsh beads or acids. The addition of 10 types of hyaluronic acids helps maintain the moisture barrier, so you get exfoliation without the usual tightness or redness.

How often should you exfoliate?

For most skin types, 2–3 times per week is sufficient. If you have very sensitive or dehydrated skin, start with once a week and monitor how your skin feels. Over-exfoliating can compromise the skin barrier even with a gentle product, so let your skin guide the frequency.

Step-by-step: How to use Super Aqua Peeling Gel

Start with a clean, dry face: Wash your face with a gentle cleanser and pat it completely dry. Water on the skin can dilute the gel and reduce its peeling effect. Common mistake: applying to damp skin, which prevents the gel from forming pills.
Apply an even layer of gel: Dispense about a nickel-sized amount of the Super Aqua Ultra Hyalron Peeling Gel and spread it over your face, avoiding the eye and lip areas. Do not rub in circles yet—just coat the skin.
Gently massage until pills form: Using your fingertips, massage in gentle, circular motions. After 20–30 seconds, you will see small clumps (pills) of dead skin cells and product forming. Keep massaging for another 30 seconds, focusing on areas like the nose and chin where buildup is common. Checkpoint: if no pills form, your skin may be too dry or the gel is too thin. Add a bit more product.
Rinse thoroughly with lukewarm water: Splash your face with lukewarm water and gently remove all the gel and pills. Avoid hot water, which can strip the skin of moisture. Pat dry with a soft towel. Common mistake: using hot water or scrubbing with a towel, which can undo the gentle exfoliation.
Follow with hydration: Immediately apply a hydrating toner, serum, or moisturizer to lock in moisture. Your skin is more receptive to products after exfoliation, so this is the perfect time to layer your Super Aqua ampoule or a soothing cream.
