Thanks for verifying what I thought. And right on about the cucumber - very odd to randomly end with solely “cucumber”! It doesn’t smell heavily of alcohol OR nail polish remover which is what makes me wonder even about the order of ingredients. Even if one of those was used to dissolve the lipoic acid, I’d not think it’d be in a higher concentration than water. Not even sure “Sterile water” is an appropriate label term? It really has more of a menthol scent with a slight note of undetermined chemical. If you were to directly smell the product, it’d not take your breath away but definitely opens the nasal passages and has a cooling feel on the skin.

I was definitely surprised when I began studying the label. I assumed this was a quality product due to the branding and online demos and hype surrounding this treatment. I used if several times before studying the label and then was rather shocked. And yes 100% US, I’m surprised I’ve not seen anyone else bring this up, but then - they do require approval to any Facebook posts on their brand group oage.

Yes, it is exactly the way the label reads, see photo.
When I purchased this product, I was just given highlights of ingredients, could not see the actual full bottle with label. I was quite surprised when the label read this way.
It is not like an alginate mask.
The texture in bottle is that of a thick slime. You dispense into a dish, apply with fan brush, allow to dry, then remove with fingertips in a rubbing motion. The product gums up, and comes off in little sticky balls (supposedly taking dead skin with it but obviously it’s mostly just the product coming off). It is very similar to these carbomer based peeling gels, but removes with less sticking to facial hair.
It’s frustrating because the skin does actually feel very nice after this, but I have zero willingness to continue to use something that has an inaccurate label. Really makes me wonder! This is marketed as a professional only brand!
