I had no idea the ingredients were this problematic... 
It's inconvenient to purchase since Clarisonic is no longer available in the country. 

When using the Clarisonic device, other foam cleansers often don't lather well, but this product produces a rich foam and has excellent cleansing effectiveness. 

리프레싱 젤 클렌저

The downside is that Clarisonic has pulled out of department stores, so it's only available at duty-free shops. This means I have to stock up when I can. Also, I'm a bit disappointed that the ingredients aren't as good as I initially thought.

As a 40-something with sensitive, dry cheeks and a slight redness to my complexion, I've found my holy grail product. While I don't have acne, my skin tends to react to new cosmetics, so when I find something that works, I stick with it. This cleanser has been my go-to for 3-4 years now. Although I've stopped using the device due to irritation, I keep repurchasing the cleanser. It's never caused any blemishes or redness, and I love its hydrating power and value for money. Whenever I try something else, my skin thickens and develops tiny bumps, so I always come back to this.

While it didn't cause any blemishes, the product was so stiff when I first opened it that I hurt my fingernail.

It's gentle and cleanses effectively, leaving skin feeling fresh. It works best when used with an electric cleansing device.

If you dislike products that feel slippery, I wouldn't recommend this one!

It keeps my skin moisturized even after cleansing. I use it with my Clarisonic device, and the combination works wonders!

I recommend squeezing the cleanser onto the brush and rubbing it a bit with your hands before use. Otherwise, it might be slightly irritating until it starts to foam up.

There wasn't anything disappointing while using it. If I had to nitpick, maybe the gel is a bit runny and tends to drip?

I've only used it with the smart profile, and it's been amazing. It lathers up well and doesn't leave my skin feeling tight. I came here to check out the ingredients because I was thinking of buying the cleanser separately, but now I'm torn!

It's quite pricey. I think you could buy and use a competitor's product and get similar results.

The foam is just right for using with a cleansing device!

This product is a blemish trigger. I belatedly checked and realized the ingredients aren't good either. The blemishes don't subside easily. I'll have to use a different cleanser with my device.

The scent is quite pleasant. It lathers well when used with a cleansing device.

It doesn't leave my skin feeling refreshed after washing, and the ingredients... aren't particularly great

The fact that it's specifically designed for Clarisonic...

If you want to use the luxe brush, go for MakeOn. Go for it!
(Is the luxe brush even suitable for mature skin? Hmm...)

Oh, and since it's a gel cleanser,
squeeze it onto your hands and rub it onto the brush first,
then apply it to your face.
Applying it directly can be irritating.

Now, back to the product itself...
Look at the ingredients... It's full of potential allergens...
And the surfactants, oh my!
Plus, since the device creates foam that runs down,
it stings if it gets in your eyes.
(The foam is very rich, what's up with that?)

The scent is luxurious, though. As expected...
A high-end floral fragrance you'd find in foreign spas or perfume lines. Ah, so nice...
(But wait, didn't we say it could cause allergies? Hmm...)

That's it.

The supplier is L'Oreal (of course...)
They probably source and supply it.

If you want similar products,
Lancôme or Biotherm have many comparable options.

As for a gel cleanser I'd recommend from recent use,
try Acure Facial Cleansing Gel.
Oh, and if you can't find that, COSRX products are
at least 12 times better than this.

To be honest, these are the only products I've used recently that come to mind right now. Sigh.

This product often comes as a freebie when you buy Clarisonic devices or brush refills above a certain price point (though it's not great - more on that later).

As a Clarisonic user, let me tell you - buy the device twice if you have to. Just get rid of the accompanying cleanser... you know what to do.

I briefly flirted with using MakeOn, but I've been loyal to my Clarisonic for years now. I feel incomplete without you!

When showering, use it once on your face, then again on your décolletage, neck, and ears - following the lymph nodes. There's nothing better.

It's also great for removing clay masks. If not, go for a sponge instead.

(Comparing it to MakeOn - that one's pretty, pretty, and... pretty. It has lots of functions, while this one is just solidly reliable and refreshing.)

That's all!

(This review is actually for the Clarisonic cleansing device, haha!)
I always use this product with my Clarisonic, so...
Don't mistake the device's benefits for this cleanser's strengths.
You might be better off using a different cleanser.

It's just an average cleanser...
The ingredients aren't great and the price is even worse.

You only need a small amount of cleanser for effective cleansing. (Looking at the ingredients, it's best not to use too much.) When removing makeup, double cleansing is necessary, so most of the makeup comes off during the first cleanse anyway.

The price is a bit steep, and now that I look closely, there are more potentially irritating ingredients than I expected, which makes me hesitate. It's a shame because using Clarisonic had brightened my complexion and significantly improved my blemishes.

If you want to use it with a brush, cleansers that are too strong can make your skin feel tight after washing. However, when used with its dedicated cleanser, your skin feels moisturized even after cleansing.

If you find it works well for you, keep using it. But if it doesn't suit your skin, it might be wise to try a cleanser from a different brand.

The price is a bit steep, I must say. That's really the only downside for me.

This product is perfect for use with a cleansing device. It's free of granules, comes in liquid form, and lathers up nicely. Just squeeze some onto your brush, massage it in, and you'll get a rich foam in no time! Plus, there's no tight feeling after cleansing, which is great!

Using it with a brush is even better than applying it with your hands

I noticed a few small blemishes appearing... Nevertheless, it seems to cleanse my skin thoroughly

It feels like I've had a professional exfoliation at the dermatologist's office, with dead skin cells effectively removed

First off, it's quite pricey, which makes it less competitive. There's no real need to use this specific product with the Clarisonic, so once I've finished it, I'll probably switch to a more affordable drugstore option. I can't really pinpoint any outstanding benefits.

It seems to cleanse gently. I'm using it with my Clarisonic Mia 2 and I really like it. It leaves my skin feeling refreshed.
