| Verdict | ADCOS turns its Mela Off serum into a wipe-and-go pad — clinic-strength brightening complex on a daily-use pad, for the Brazilian dermo crowd that's been asking. | Beyoung's physical exfoliant — rice hull powder + charcoal powder + cellulose microparticles in a clear gel base. The rice hull provides gentle mechanical exfoliation (rice husks are softer than walnut shell or apricot pit fragments, meaning less micro-tearing), charcoal absorbs excess oil and impurities, and saccharide isomerate (a plant-derived humectant that binds to the skin's keratin) prevents the stripped feeling. The adjustable-intensity approach is clever: apply to wet skin for gentle exfoliation, or to dry skin for deeper scrubbing on oily areas. From Beyoung's professional aesthetics heritage — field-tested by Brazilian estheticians. At R$53 (~$11), use 2-3 times per week. |
