It's not available. This product works so well for me. I want to keep using it, but I can't find it anywhere. I wonder what happened.

I've been searching everywhere for this product but can't find it in stock. Is it sold out?

더마 릴리프 밸런싱 젤클렌저

There's a slippery residue after use, but no other drawbacks

It had better cleansing effectiveness than the Primera cleansing foam I usually use

There's a slightly slippery feeling even after washing it off, and the gel cleanser tends to solidify around the opening, often clogging it.

It seems to be generally good. While it doesn't completely eliminate blemishes, it helps maintain skin condition reasonably well.

Use this product for your morning cleanse. For evening makeup removal, start with micellar water, then follow up with this gel. It's a zero-irritation routine!

The ingredients list could be better. I'm disappointed to see PEGs included. To be honest, once I finish this, I plan to switch to the foam cleanser from the same line.

The after-feel might not be for everyone (though I personally like it). It leaves a slightly slippery sensation after rinsing. However, I've learned that this actually indicates a gentle, non-stripping cleanse.

In terms of cleansing power, I'd say it's moderate.

This is an excellent low pH cleansing gel for those with sensitive, blemish-prone skin like mine.

What I love most is that it's fragrance-free! As someone who gets instant headaches from artificial scents, I highly recommend this for those with sensitive skin or fragrance sensitivities.

The lather is fantastic! If you've tried low pH products before, you know they often don't foam well. But this one creates a rich lather that doesn't disappear quickly, even when using a foam net.

It's perfect for morning cleansing and as a second cleanser. My dermatologist recommended using a low pH cleanser in the morning, which is why I chose this. For makeup removal, I use micellar water first, then follow with this gel. It's a gentle, irritation-free routine that works great for my oily, sensitive, blemish-prone skin.

Less effective cleansing power than foam cleansers, and leaves some residue. Recommended for sensitive skin or if foam cleansers make your skin feel dry.

Suitable for moderately sensitive skin types. Lala Blah often has sales.

For an enhanced experience, try using it with a Daiso bubble maker. Squeeze about a 100 won coin-sized amount into the maker, add water to about half the recommended level, and you'll get the perfect foam consistency for cleansing - not too much, not too little.

While a thorough cleanse is crucial for acne care, this product falls short of delivering dramatic results.

There's no doubt that this product is gentle and non-irritating to the skin.

Highly recommended for those with dry skin as a morning cleanser!

❗️The scent isn't to my liking.
All the cosmetics in this line have the same fragrance, which isn't my cup of tea. It has a slight medicinal scent. It's not unbearable, but it's not pleasant either.

Other than that, I don't have any complaints!

I have dry skin lacking both oil and moisture, and I prefer a hydrated skin condition without excess oil!

I used this product for my morning cleanse.

❗️It's moisturizing.
This was my first time using a product that left my skin feeling hydrated after cleansing, which was quite surprising! Even after rinsing with water, there's a soft, moisturized feeling. Some might say it leaves a residue, though. If you dislike this sensation, I wouldn't recommend it!

❗️It has great ingredients.
I was looking for a gentle product with good ingredients, as just water feels insufficient for morning cleansing, and using only toner feels incomplete. This product worked well for me without causing any blemishes~

❗️The cleansing power is better than expected.
I thought its cleansing ability would be quite weak, but it removed most of my makeup. It took off everything except waterproof mascara, including tints (with slight staining left) and eyeliners.

❗️It's a low pH cleanser.
I always use low pH cleansers, and since this product is low pH and suits me well, I plan to repurchase it~

The fragrance-free formula means the scent isn't great, unfortunately. It takes some getting used to at first, but you adapt over time. Also, there's a slightly slippery feeling after rinsing, as if it hasn't washed off completely. Rinsing thoroughly helps with this. Personally, I don't mind the smooth feeling as it makes my skin feel extra silky, but some people might not like it. Lastly, it's a bit on the pricey side.

I'm usually very cautious when choosing cleansers since my skin can react badly, but this one recommended by a friend works amazingly well for me! The ingredients are good, and being slightly acidic seems to suit my skin better. It's a transparent, runny gel with a slight yellow tint that lathers up nicely. After washing, my skin feels smooth. It's perfect for a quick morning cleanse. It seems to cleanse well, and I've noticed fewer blemishes since I started using it. I've been sticking with this cleanser exclusively for two years now!

While it's good that it's mildly acidic, the gel texture makes it a bit challenging to foam up. It's slightly inconvenient as you need to dispense small amounts once or twice to create a lather before use.

After cleansing, there's no excess oil, but the skin feels well-hydrated. It maintains a surprisingly comfortable state without any deep dryness.

I wish the container had a pump. Since it's a gel type, it's difficult to control the amount when pouring it out.

It lathers up well and easily removes even the tints that wouldn't come off with the foam cleansers I bulk-bought from home shopping. After cleansing, my skin feels moisturized and soft, which I'm extremely satisfied with.

The scent is a bit like dish soap, so I have to hold my breath while washing my face... It's also quite slippery, requiring multiple rinses...

When I get blemishes, this product gives me a soothing feeling, so I've been using it consistently.

The downside? It doesn't lather up very well. But I guess you could use a foaming net to solve that issue.

First off, I love that it's mildly acidic, so it doesn't irritate my skin. My complexion feels soothed right after cleansing, which is fantastic.
