LEPS built a 29% body peel, and almost nobody else is making one

Body exfoliation is the category Korean brands mostly skipped. Our catalogue has 31 acid products and they are almost all face formulas; the body aisle is physical scrubs and relabelled face peels.

LEPS made a ladder instead. 9.11% for the face at 60 seconds. 29.11% for the body at 30. The gap is deliberate, and it is the reason to look.

The body one is the interesting SKU

Flash Reset 29 adds LHA to the usual AHA/PHA/BHA set, at a concentration no face product carries, with niacinamide at 5% — and it is aimed squarely at what body-exfoliation customers actually buy for: dark-looking knees, elbows and underarms, ingrown hairs, body breakouts.

That is a real problem with weak solutions in most markets, and a listing that does not compete with the twenty Korean face exfoliants already on your shelf.

The face version is the same architecture dialled down, with 3% panthenol, a ceramide complex and vitamin B12 formulated in — recovery built into the product rather than left to the next step.

The third SKU sits outside the acid story entirely: a 9% magnesium chloride body mist, 5-free, pocket format. That sells into wellness and sports retail, not beauty retail. If you carry both, it is a bridge product. If you do not, it is the odd one out and you should admit that to yourself before ordering.

Our call

Carry it if you have a body-care shelf and a market that searches for keratosis or ingrown-hair fixes. The two-tier ladder is genuinely well designed for merchandising: the face peel sells the body peel.

Skip it if you are buying for a market with tight cosmetic acid limits. 29.11% is a number you check against local rules before you commit, not after — and that check is yours to run. Ask us for the full INCI alongside your samples; for acid products the paperwork decides the assortment.
