If you've seen someone massage clear gel onto their face and have tiny white balls roll off — that's gommage. A K-beauty staple since the 1990s that America is just discovering.
The HKY Vitamin C Exfoliating Gel brings this genius method with upgraded ingredients: Vitamin C, Niacinamide, and Vitamin E.
How It Works
- Apply specially formulated gel to clean, DRY skin
- Water-soluble polymers adhere to loose/dead surface cells
- After 10-15 sec, gently massage in circular motions
- Gel traps dead cells → they form visible little balls
- Rinse — dead cells go down the drain
Not the gel turning solid — those balls are YOUR actual dead skin cells lifting away.
Why Korea Loves It Since the 90s
- Gentle consistency over aggressive treatments (better long-term)
- Multi-tasking (one product for face AND body)
- Visible sensory feedback (you see/feel it working)
- Affordable at scale (300ml for under $35)
HKY's Upgraded Formula
| Ingredient | Benefit |
|---|---|
| Vitamin C | Brightens dullness, evens tone |
| Niacinamide | Pore refinement, strengthens barrier |
| Vitamin E | Soothing antioxidant, stabilizes Vit C |
| Citrus Extract | Natural radiance + fresh scent |
Most basic gommage has NONE of these — just the base mechanism.
Step-by-Step Usage
- Clean, DRY skin (crucial!)
- Apply thin even layer
- Wait 10-15 seconds
- Gently massage circular motions (LIGHT pressure)
- Watch dead cells ball up and roll off
- Rinse thoroughly with lukewarm water
