First off, it's gentle and non-irritating. Being a gel type, it's neither drying nor oily - that's probably its biggest advantage. It claims to regulate skin temperature, but since I don't have particularly problematic skin, I can't really speak to that effect. The best part is you can stock up on multiple bottles at a relatively affordable price from iHerb. Some say its cleansing power is weak, so I wouldn't use it alone on days I wear makeup. I use a cleansing water first, then follow up with this as a second cleanser. It's perfect as a gentle, non-irritating second step! Also, the scent is quite natural, which I love.
ConsIt's become my go-to product, so I honestly can't think of any downsides. Maybe the fact that it's hard to find in Korea? You can buy it from the mentioned online store, but it's not available in our local drugstores, which is a shame.
TipPro tip: Since it's a gel type, make sure to use a generous amount for a good cleanse. If you use too little, it might not feel like it's cleaning well. Also, the bottle is quite sturdy - I've taken it on trips and it's never leaked, despite its somewhat flimsy appearance. Just wanted to reassure you on that front!

That's why I switched to this product. At first, I wasn't sure if it was actually cleansing and felt a bit uneasy, but after getting used to it, the redness significantly decreased. While it didn't completely eliminate my blemishes, it did prevent large, inflamed ones from appearing!
ConsI didn't have any issues with it, but if you're looking for that squeaky-clean feeling after cleansing, this might not be the best choice for you.
TipYou can get it much cheaper if you order directly from iHerb.

After rinsing, there's no tightness and the color blends in well. The amount is quite generous, so I think it offers good value for money.
ConsIt's not suitable for cleansing heavy waterproof makeup. And if you're not used to a non-foaming cleanser, you may feel unsure at first if you've cleaned properly.

I will definitely repurchase. It's a gel-type product that doesn't lather much, so there's less skin tightness compared to other foam cleansers. After washing, my skin feels soft rather than squeaky clean. This has really helped calm down my acne redness, and I wish I had a whole box of it at home.
ConsSince it's a gel, it sometimes makes a splattering sound when I squeeze it out. Other than that, there's nothing I dislike about it. Don't expect this cleansing gel to exfoliate on its own - you'll need to use AHA/BHA products for that. But this is the best product I've found for that purpose!
TipApply the lotion to your dry face and gently massage it in with your fingertips. Then, add a little water and continue massaging. Dilute the product slightly with water as you cleanse to get a smooth, comfortable experience. Rinse thoroughly, and you're good to go!

Since my skin became too sensitive, I decided to change my cleanser and bought this one, and I'm now on my second bottle as I really like it. It's smooth and water-soluble, so it dissolves well in water and rinses off easily. It doesn't leave my skin feeling tight after rinsing. March 2019 addition: I'm still using it well. I found out it has a pH of 6.7. I was a bit shocked that it's higher than expected, but there's nothing else that cleanses my skin so well without leaving it feeling tight afterwards. June 2019 addition: After reading a dermatologist's blog, I learned that a recent study showed neutral pH cleansers are better. I was wondering why this one works so well for me even though it's not slightly acidic, and now I finally understand!
ConsThe opening is almost flat, so at first it would just ooze out. But if I place the side of my palm right next to the opening and squeeze it in a cupping motion, it doesn't drip or ooze out.
TipIt rinses off well, but since there's no lather, it's hard to see in the mirror if any areas weren't rinsed properly. You have to be diligent and make sure to thoroughly rinse even the hard-to-reach areas, like around the nose and hairline. Any leftover cleanser residue on the face can cause breakouts, so be sure to rinse meticulously.

And as the name suggests, it is a non-foaming gel cleanser, so there is no dryness after washing.
ConsSometimes after washing with it, I get pimples. The catch is that it can also make my skin redder after washing.
TipEven if you feel the gel cleanser doesn't rinse off well, that's part of its charm, so you don't need to rinse it excessively. Just rinse it a few times like you would with a foam cleanser!
