Pros
It's gentle. It's not a sticky, gooey formula like some gel cleansers, but applies smoothly and leaves my skin feeling soft and moisturized after cleansing. There's no dryness or tightness. The scent is similar to the ginseng aroma found in some traditional herbal cosmetics, but it's not overpowering and I find it pleasant. I'd recommend this as a morning cleanser or as a second cleanse to remove makeup, especially the kind that's transfer-proof.
Cons
Personally, I prefer cleansers that produce a rich, creamy lather, and even though I have dry skin, I like that slightly squeaky-clean feeling after cleansing. This product doesn't lather at all, and while the moisturizing aspect is a plus, I think I'll save it for use during the transitional seasons or winter when my skin is extra dry.

Pros
The lather may not seem very abundant, but regardless of the lather, the cleansing power is sufficient, and after cleansing, there is no tightening feeling - it feels very moisturizing and great. The natural, relaxing fragrance that is characteristic of Aveda is also very pleasant. I'm usually cautious when massaging with a foam cleanser since I have dry skin, but this product is not like that.
Cons
The only downside is that it's a bit pricey..ㅠㅠ But it's a bit better if you buy it at the duty-free shop.

Pros
I've switched products based on how moisturized my skin feels after cleansing, rather than just the squeaky-clean sensation. - Compared to other products, this one does leave my skin feeling less dry and more hydrated after cleansing. - This was my first time using a gel-type cleanser, and while the Aveda one doesn't really have a gel-like texture, more of a thin, watery consistency, I found that it blends well with my makeup during cleansing. - I occasionally get clogged pores, but I didn't experience any breakouts or skin issues after using this.
Cons
- I bought this as a primary cleansing product, but it doesn't seem to have the cleansing power I was hoping for. - More importantly, the price is on the higher end compared to other products, but I don't see any standout benefits or effects. Skin type can vary, so I'd recommend checking it out carefully before purchasing.
Tip
Since I already bought it, I've been using it to wipe down areas with body acne while showering. It's not overly harsh, so I can use it without any issues.

Pros
Nowadays, there are many affordable and gentle cleansers on the market. However, many of them contain harmful ingredients and are expensive, yet people continue to use them. After using them, there is a moisturized feeling. They also perform the role of cleansing well.
Cons
The price is expensive, and there are many allergy-inducing ingredients in it.

Pros
I started using this product based on the recommendation from an esthetician. It's been about 2 years since I started using it. It's moisturizing without irritating my sensitive skin. (It works well for me even though I have dry skin.) The healthy fragrance is also nice!
Cons
Unlike some other reviews, the lather isn't dramatically bubbly. It has more of a smooth, creamy cleansing feel, which may not be preferred by those who like a more foamy wash.

Pros
Very mild feeling. And it finishes moisturized (there may be some likes and dislikes). It doesn't wash off as crunchy, but it's a good product for dry-skinned people with a slight amount of oil content. The cleansing power is low, so it's good for people who don't wear makeup or dry-skinned men. It's not suitable for removing makeup after wearing it. It's perfect for when you're not wearing makeup or for morning cleansing. It's a product that can be used continuously for several years..
Cons
The cleansing power is low. The lather doesn't form well And there's a slight oil content, so you have to rinse it several times more than usual
Tip
Recommended for those who don't wear makeup, don't need strong cleansing, and don't like the crunchy feeling of washing

Pros
It cleanses gently and leaves the skin moisturized. It's great for morning cleansing.
Cons
While it's lightweight, the cleansing power is not exceptional. It's just right for morning use. Otherwise, it should be used as a secondary cleanser after makeup removal.
Tip
Lightly work up a lather in the palm of your hand before applying to the face.

Pros
The moisturizing effect is good, but the cleansing effect doesn't seem to be very strong. That's why I use it for my morning face wash.
Cons
Deep cleansing is difficult. It's a shame that the cleansing power is lacking, but it's moisturizing! It seems like it would be good for dry skin.
Tip
I'm using it for my morning face wash. It's moisturizing.

Pros
It's a liquid gel type, and just one squeeze is enough, so it lasts a long time and is good value for money. It doesn't cause any trouble, keeps my skin moisturized and comfortable, so I've bought three bottles of this product.
Cons
I used the small size, and every time I use it, the gel at the opening gets hardened, so it doesn't come out properly or sometimes squirts in the wrong direction.^^... I'm not sure if the larger size has the same issue.

Pros
The cleansing power is a bit weak for removing makeup, so I'm currently using it as a secondary or morning cleanser. But even after washing, it leaves my skin feeling sufficiently moisturized and not dry at all!! The scent is also natural and pleasant, so those who enjoy such fragrances will likely appreciate it.
Cons
Hmm, the cleansing power is a bit weak, so it's difficult to use as a primary cleanser. The finish also feels a bit slippery, so I may need to do an additional cleansing step...
Tip
It's better to use this as a secondary or morning cleanser rather than a primary one. And after washing, don't dry your face with a towel - just let your hands absorb the water, and your skin will feel much more moisturized.
