Pros
The product contains various moisturizing and barrier components (hyaluronic acid, cholesterol, ceramides) which was great. Additionally, it produced a good lather (decent cleansing power) while not leaving a squeaky clean feeling (mildly acidic) after use. I would recommend this as a morning cleanser for those with oily skin who need skin barrier protection.
Cons
The price is a bit expensive, which is a bit disappointing. Also, for the evening when stronger cleansing is needed, you'll have to use a separate alkaline cleanser to feel refreshed.

Pros
It's 28,000 won and 190ml in size. I received it as a gift when I purchased over 70,000 won worth of products, and I've been using it. After cleansing, my skin feels less tight and more moisturized. It's a mild, low-pH cleanser with 0% artificial fragrance and color, and it contains antioxidant ingredients. I found this product and decided to get it since they were giving it away as a gift.
Cons
The lack of lather makes me doubt its cleansing power. When I use cleansing water, makeup residue is left behind. It might be good for basic cleansing, but I don't plan to repurchase this product.
Tip
Using a cleansing brush makes it a bit better.

Pros
The product is slightly acidic, so there is no strong tightening feeling on the face after cleansing, which I like.
Cons
The lather doesn't form well, so there is a sense that the cleansing is not thorough, which is a bit disappointing.

Pros
This is my first mildly acidic cleanser. When I was very interested in Pola, I saw it on sale on the US homepage and the reviews weren't bad, so I got it. The lather doesn't form very well, but it's not so bad that I can't apply it to my face. I really like that it's fragrance-free... After washing my face, I have a good feeling that it doesn't pull my skin too much.
Cons
The price is a bit disappointing... I'm using it sparingly. I'm not sure about the cleansing power. But since I didn't originally want a product with amazing cleansing power, it's not a big deal...
Tip
I don't do facial makeup every day, but I diligently apply sunscreen every day, so I do a primary cleanse with the Bioderma cleansing water and then a secondary cleanse with this. Fortunately, there's a large-size version, so I bought and am using that one.

Pros
The cleansing power is amazing! I thought it was a mild acidic cleanser, but it leaves my skin feeling so smooth and refreshed.
Cons
The high price is a bit disappointing. Unless there's a sale or discount, I probably wouldn't give it a second look.

Pros
I'm using it for the second time. 1. Mild acidity + Appropriate cleansing power It is mildly acidic, so it does not dry out the skin. But it's not too weak either. It doesn't seem to remove mineral sunscreen in one go. When washing off something stronger than mineral sunscreen, please give it about 1 minute or double cleanse. 2. Soft and comfortable to use The ingredients are essentially the same. The difference is that it contains ceramides, so the feel is very soft. Some say that the feel during cleansing is not important, but the feel can actually change the cleansing habit itself, so I value it highly. With a soft cleanser, gently massaging can minimize skin damage. 3. Pump bottle It's a bottle with hygiene and convenience in mind. I wish all cosmetics came in pump bottles... 4. Trusting Pola Choice products... e.g. Clean ingredient composition In fact, Pola Choice products have common advantages. They are composed of functional ingredients without frills, which is good. There are no fragrances or dyes. And they don't do animal testing either.
Cons
The price is burdensome... I usually don't deduct stars for unreasonable prices, but I don't think this is unreasonable. Ceramides, which are considered a luxury, are included for the feel, and there is an exact alternative product from the same company.
Tip
Stock up when it's on sale! Massage it thoroughly and don't rinse too quickly.

Pros
While it's a bit more expensive than Swal, I think it's just as good. It seems to be slightly acidic, and only a few ingredients have been added, so the difference doesn't seem that significant.
Cons
The downside is that the price is just too high compared to Skin Balancing.

Pros
Although it is a mild acid cleanser, it is relatively one of the more foaming products among Pola items. It has a similar texture to the Skin Balancing Cleanser, and the finish is a bit more moisturizing without tightness, and the cleansing power is also good. Since it's a pump type, it's convenient to use.
Cons
The amount is less than the basic line cleanser, so it gets used up quickly.
Tip
Rather than lathering it in your hands, applying it directly to your face and massaging it in to create the foam will allow for a more thorough cleansing.

Pros
This was the first time I tried a mildly acidic cleansing foam, and it was definitely less drying on my skin compared to the more alkaline ones. The moisturizing effect was also amazing!
Cons
The downside was that the scent wasn't great, and the lather seemed quite minimal. As it's mildly acidic, the cleansing power may not be as strong, so you'll need to be careful.

Pros
Although it is a mild cleansing product, the foam is nicely formulated and there is no dryness, itchiness, heat, or redness after rinsing. I'm glad I found this good product again. It's great as a secondary cleansing step - using a cleansing milk in the evening and then finishing with this product for a thorough, comfortable cleanse. The foam is not mousse-like, but has a very soft, creamy texture, allowing me to gently roll it over the T-zone area multiple times to thoroughly remove the excess sebum that built up from prolonged outdoor activities.
Cons
The next day after purchasing, I dropped it in the bathtub and the neck (?) of the container broke... I've dropped many products on the floor before, but this is the first time one has been so severely damaged;; I'm using it as is, but it's frustrating, and I may have to buy a new one during the Thanksgiving sale... The container can't be opened to transfer the product elsewhere, so there's a risk of it spoiling.
Tip
Whenever I have a few whiteheads popping up on my nose, I dab this product on and gently roll an exfoliating silicone brush-like tool over it. This makes the whiteheads disappear. It takes a lot of willpower not to aggressively squeeze them, but it's best not to. I use this whenever I have it, and if I don't, I just take a photo... When I go to buy a new one, I get so excited!! But you can just use your ring finger to gently roll it over the area as well.
