What the Brand Says
- Glass skin starts here: AHA + BHA + PHA triple exfoliation dissolves dead skin cells, unclogs pores, and smooths uneven texture without harsh scrubbing.
- Visibly brighter in 4 weeks: Niacinamide and Rice Water Extract target dullness, uneven tone, and enlarged pores; rice extract delivers a luminous glow.
- Exfoliates without drying: Rice Bran Water (90%+ of rice's concentrated nutrients) and PENTAVITIN keep skin hydrated; no tight, flaky feeling.
- Preps skin to absorb more: clears buildup so serums and moisturizers work harder; use as the first step in a routine.
- Gentle daily use: for oily, textured, blackhead-prone or dull skin; dermatologist-tested. (Note: the formula contains Parfum — see ingredient section.)
Brief Introduction
The Peel Shot Black Rice Exfoliating Ampoule is a liquid K-beauty treatment built around a triple-acid exfoliating system — AHA, BHA and PHA — combined with Black Rice (Oryza Sativa) Bran Water and Niacinamide. It is positioned as a daily chemical exfoliant that refines texture, decongests pores and brightens tone while leaning on humectants (glycerin, hyaluronic acids, saccharide isomerate) and squalane to offset the drying tendency of exfoliants. Texture is an ampoule/serum; routine step is after cleansing, before heavier serums and creams.

Customers Say
Customers find the exfoliating ampoule effective at removing dead skin and cleaning pores, resulting in smooth, fresh-feeling skin with a clear glow.

3. Product Ingredients
This ingredient analysis merges the Skinsort channel (which carries per-ingredient comedogenic / irritancy ratings) with the Amazon INCI list. The COSDNA channel could not be reached at capture time (Cloudflare challenge on every attempt), so COSDNA's community safety scores are not included; no safety rating was invented.

EM = unrated (missing data, never "0"). Both ratings read "low is safer"; 0 = no known risk. A range such as 2-4 is judged on its upper bound. Only 8 of 42 ingredients carry any rating; the remaining 34 are unrated — this is insufficient to derive a meaningful "formula risk score", so none is computed.

4. Customer Reviews
Buyer-written review text could not be rendered for this ASIN at capture time (the review block was bot-walled), so only the aggregate rating, star distribution and Amazon's AI "Customers Say" summary are reported above. No reviewer name, handle, profile URL or avatar appears in this report.
Anonymized customer sentiment from the summary: several customers describe smooth, fresh, glowing skin and a satisfying texture; a notable minority report breakouts or irritation, and some find it overpriced. A recurring application complaint is that the product "balls up" during use.

Historical price data unavailable. The camelcamelcamel price-history source was unreachable (Cloudflare "Just a moment..." challenge on every attempt, including the r.jina.ai reader). The chart above compares the three Amazon price points captured on 2026-11-02; it is a point-in-time snapshot, not a low / high / average trend. No historical figure was inferred or invented.
6. Methodology & Limitations
- Snapshot: figures are as of 2026-11-02; price, rank and rating counts change continuously.
- Amazon data: captured from the US product page (New York 10001 delivery context, native USD). 3 main images downloaded; no buyer-uploaded photos were rendered.
- Skinsort: full ingredient table (42 rows), claim matrix, concerns, benefits and key groups captured via the r.jina.ai reader channel.
- COSDNA: blocked by Cloudflare on every channel — not included; no safety rating fabricated.
- camelcamelcamel: blocked by Cloudflare — historical price series not available.
- Ratings ≠ reviews: 9,425 counts star ratings, not written reviews. Review text was not captured.
- Privacy: no reviewer identity is published; community votes are weak ingredient-level signals, not product verdicts.
