Pros* Review after 30+ days of use
* Skin type: Sensitive, acne-prone
* Reason for purchase: Enticed by marketing claims like 'Acne-soothing foam cleanser', '30-day miracle', and 'AHA, BHA, PHA benefits for skin' - phrases that appeal to those with blemish-prone skin.
* Key ingredients: Mugwort extract, tea tree leaf water, centella asiatica extract, and standardized centella extract.
(I also appreciated that it excludes 20 potentially harmful ingredients like benzophenone-3, sorbic acid, and propyl paraben.)
* Volume/Price: 100ml/30,000 KRW
Checked the Some By Mi website and noticed the price has significantly dropped to 11,400 KRW.
* Packaging: Tube type, allowing for economical use till the last drop
* Scent: Toothpaste-like
* Usage experience: Produces sufficient foam and leaves skin feeling refreshed after cleansing. Gives a squeaky clean feeling, almost to the point where skin feels a bit dry if you don't follow up with toner and emulsion. Noticed an improvement in blemishes. However, as it's a functional cosmetic rather than a preventative or treatment product, new blemishes still appear (lol).
Cons* Possibly due to the tea tree ingredient, if I put on contact lenses without rewashing my hands with soap after using the product, my eyes feel slightly irritated.
(I get the same sensation when trying to remove eye gunk.)
* Since I experienced some irritation, I'm skeptical about their marketing claims of being non-irritating based on clinical results.
TipRecommend using it together with Some By Mi's basic skincare line: Miracle Toner, Miracle Serum, and Miracle Cream.
