Please use it a lot so it doesn't get discontinued 🥺 💕Non-irritating As someone with sensitive skin, I find it not irritating and good. 💕Moisturizing After cleansing, there's no dry, tight feeling, but a soft, supple, and moist finish. Those who prefer a squeaky-clean finish may have mixed feelings about this, but I liked it. 💕Exfoliating As a powder type cleanser, it seems to effectively remove dead skin cells.
ConsHmm, the downside is that there are rumors it might get discontinued. Please, please don't let it get discontinued ㅠㅠㅠㅠㅠㅜ!!! Other than that, there's not really any other downside, but the lather isn't as abundant as other cleansers, so those who prefer lots of foam should keep that in mind ^^

After cleansing, my skin felt bright and clear, with no residue left behind. Given the current concerns about fine dust, this seems like an ideal cleansing product to use.
ConsI'm not sure if the lack of lather is normal for enzyme cleansers, but I found that it didn't produce much foam, and the powder formula meant I ended up using too much at a time, which felt wasteful.
TipIf you roll this product over areas of concern, such as rough patches or enlarged pores, you can feel the texture starting to smooth out a bit.

It gently cleanses the skin in the morning and does not strip too much moisture from the skin, which is great. It can remove fine dust, waste, and impurities all at once. Those who find it inconvenient can also use it in the evening.
ConsThe powder is not as fine as expected, and it takes some time to lather it up well for it to dissolve properly. The lather is not as voluminous as expected. Even those without acne may find their skin becoming sensitive due to the powder not dissolving well enough. It is not recommended for those with acne, but if you still want to try it, it is suitable only for occasional or quick morning cleansing. For the curious, it is recommended to test it out.

Reviews by The Hwahae Testers undergo the same strict verification process as regular reviews, and if they don't meet our standards, revisions will be requested.Pros+ The use of Haenam barley seems to have contributed to the savory grain-like aroma. I liked that it was not an artificial fragrance. + The cleansing power is good. It wipes off thoroughly and gently, with minimal tightness after cleansing. + I don't know if it's just my imagination, but it feels like a gentle cleansing experience :) The brown granules among the white powder seem to be the barley grains, which may also have an exfoliating effect.
Cons- With this powder type, proper amount control is crucial. Using too little results in insufficient lather, while using too much makes the product run out quickly. I also found this challenging. - When I dripped water and tried to create lather, if there was too much water, the lather would just flow away, and if there was too little, the powder would harden.;; You need to carefully adjust the right amount while using it.
Tip* Instead of not getting any lather at all, you should gently pat the powder a few times to get about the size of a 500 won coin worth of lather. Just add a small amount of water, just enough to submerge the powder slightly. That way, the lather will form well.

But if I wash it with cleansing foam or soap, my skin gets too dry. This product is great not only for going out on dusty days and cleansing, but also for a light morning cleanse. On dusty days, double cleansing makes the feeling of dust on my eyelashes go away ㅎㅎ Since I have thick eyelashes, when I'm in a dusty place, a lot of dust gets caught in my eyelashes, and I feel like there's dust in front of my eyes. I recommend using cleansing cream or water if you wear heavy makeup. The foam isn't as rich as you might expect. It's a non-irritating and gentle product, so I've been using it more often.
ConsThere wasn't really anything disappointing. The only thing is that the foam isn't very rich? But other than that, I don't think there was anything. Since the product is a powder, the foam doesn't get as rich.
TipSince the powder dissolves and creates the foam, the foam gets richer in warm water than cold water. And if you want to use it like a scrub, don't make all the powder into foam, leave a little powder and rub it, and it will help exfoliate. I recommend double cleansing on very dusty days. You'll feel even more refreshed.

Reviews by The Hwahae Testers undergo the same strict verification process as regular reviews, and if they don't meet our standards, revisions will be requested.Pros*Hwahae Trial Reviewer Review* I used the product for a little less than a week and am leaving a review. First, when I received the product, I felt that it was very small. So I thought I would use it up quickly, but with the small amount, it created sufficient lather, so I don't think I'll use it up quickly. The powder type formula means that if you try to create a lot of lather, it doesn't dissolve well and can clump, so you need to be careful about that part. Since I have sensitive skin, I dissolved the powder well and cleansed my face with the lather. After using it, my skin felt smooth, and it wasn't drying at all. When I used a toner afterwards, there seemed to be almost no residue left, and it felt like my skin was well-cleansed. There were no breakouts after using it either. I was satisfied with the ingredients, so I used it without worry. When I used it for morning cleansing, there was no irritation or trouble. Honestly, I didn't have high expectations for the Tonymoly brand, but I'm currently using their Easy Touch Eyebrow product and am satisfied with it. This enzyme cleansing product also has good ingredients and a nice usage experience, so my expectations for the Tonymoly brand have increased a bit!
ConsThere didn't seem to be any particularly disappointing aspects. If I had to think of something, it would be that while it claims to have fine dust cleansing function, I couldn't verify that aspect myself, and if you try to create too much lather, it can clump and not create the lather.
TipBy pouring an appropriate amount and creating lather, and then gently rolling it on the skin and adding a bit more water, the lather becomes more rich and voluminous!

The review is completely unbiased and honest, with no guidelines or restrictions. Reviews by The Hwahae Testers undergo the same strict verification process as regular reviews, and if they don't meet our standards, revisions will be requested.Pros*Hwahae Trial Reviewer Review* 1. Ingredients The enzyme cleansing powder can be found in powder form. It's a well-made product with gentle ingredients. The form is powder, and when I scoop it onto my hand, I can see yellow granules. Since these are exfoliating granules, they may be irritating for those with sensitive skin, so caution is advised. 2. Cleansing Power The enzyme cleansing powder may not be very helpful in removing makeup, so it's more suitable as a finishing cleanse. When I mix the powder with water in my palm and rub it, a lot of the powder falls through my fingers, making it quite difficult to create a lather. I tried making the lather with a cleansing brush, and I was satisfied with the result. The granules also don't dissolve easily and remain intact. If you gently massage it on your skin, you'll get a thorough cleanse without irritation! 3. Post-Cleanse The moisturizing finish after use is impressive. I've heard that it's better for the skin to have a moisturized feeling rather than a squeaky-clean one, so I'm mindful of the cleansing process. To check how long the moisturized feeling lasts, I waited 10 minutes after cleansing without applying any toner, and the area around my mouth started to feel a bit tight. It's not squeaky-clean, but it's moisturized, and you'll need to apply a moisturizer right after. 4. Packaging The clean packaging makes it easy to use. Since it's powder, it can get compromised by moisture if left in the bathroom, so it requires some management. It would be great for travel use. However, carrying the container itself might be difficult, so it would be convenient to pre-portion the powder into single-use packets to take on the go without needing to bring the entire container. 5. Overall This is a well-made enzyme powder cleanser with gentle ingredients. I personally wish the exfoliating granules weren't included, as even though they're small and dissolve, I can still feel them while massaging, which makes me hesitant to use it for my morning cleanse. The price is not bad, considering potential sales. However, the container doesn't seem to be filled to the brim, so it feels like it might run out quickly.
ConsSince I haven't tried other enzyme cleansers before, I can't make a comparison, but compared to regular cleansing foams, the satisfaction level during use is lower. Many people may find it inconvenient that creating a lather is difficult before using the cleanser. As this is a unique characteristic of enzyme cleansers, using a cleansing brush or mesh can make it better. Being a powder, storage can be inconvenient. If the lid doesn't close properly or it gets exposed to moisture, there's a risk of the entire container spilling or getting ruined quickly. It requires careful storage.

The weather is just right when fine dust is at its peak, and I happened to win the cleansing product from the Tony Mory's new Black Barley line, so I'm sharing my personal experience and impressions. First, the Black Barley is said to be effective for skin purification and care. It is a clinically proven product that is 99.8% effective in removing fine dust, impurities, and dead skin cells. Ingredients: - The main ingredient is Black Barley extract, which helps cleanse the skin and remove fine dust. - It minimizes skin irritation and has a conditioning function. Usage experience: - It's a fine powder-type. You can see grain-like or Black Barley particles in between, but they melt naturally during cleansing without any discomfort or irritation. It dissolves gently and feels very satisfactory and non-irritating for my sensitive skin. - You just need to scoop a coin-sized amount onto your palm, add a little water to create a lather, and gently massage it onto your face. However, you need to be careful with the water amount as too much can reduce the lathering. - The scent seems to be unscented. Some say it has a grain-like scent, but I didn't notice any. - After use, my skin felt moisturized and thoroughly cleansed. There was no tightness, and it had a supple, bouncy feel, so I was very satisfied. And it's really non-irritating - my skin felt soft and there was no stinging sensation. The scrubbing effect was also great, so I'm very satisfied overall.
ConsThe amount of the cleansing product seems a bit small compared to the size of the container. 😢😢 And if you can't control the water well, the lather doesn't form properly, making it difficult to cleanse thoroughly. So you'll need to be careful about that. (At first, I didn't know and added too much water, so I had to do it again. 😅)
TipI have very sensitive skin, so even a small mistake in my diet or on high fine dust days, I tend to get breakouts and bumps. 😢 That's why lately, after using the Tony Mory cleansing product, I've been following up with: - Doxxx Toner - Medix Tea Tree Care Solution (3 times a week) - Aroma X Aloe Vera Gel - Cicy The Simple Daily Lotion It really seems to soothe my skin and boost its elasticity. 💛 Let's all take good care of our skin! 🍋

Reviews by The Hwahae Testers undergo the same strict verification process as regular reviews, and if they don't meet our standards, revisions will be requested.ProsI thought the courage was not like a regular cleanser, but it is actually a powder-type cleanser. Without knowing, I just added water and tried to create lather, but the powder disappeared in an instant when I turned on the water above. 1. Scrubbing effect. At first, I didn't know and tried to create lather on my wet hands to wash, but the little lather I had also got washed away. However, if I just apply the (wet) powder directly on my (wet) face, it has a scrubbing effect! But how effective is it really? I used it with minimal moisturizing for a week, and my dead skin didn't come off. It seems to be more about preventing dead skin rather than perfectly removing it. 2. You can feel your skin smooth and soft right after cleansing. At first, the lather didn't seem very dense, so I wondered if it was cleansing properly, but my cheeks felt so smooth that I kept rinsing. It turns out that wasn't because it wasn't cleaned properly. You can really feel the smooth, soft texture on your cheeks after rinsing off the cleanser, just like after using a hair conditioner. 3. ++++ I'll revise it after a month of use. I thought the lather wouldn't come out well, but if you use a lot, the lather is abundant! The delicate lather I thought was just me being timid - if you just lather it up strongly, it creates a rich, creamy lather, not just like soap! It removes makeup without a double cleanse (except for eyes/lips). But I'm not sure about the scrubbing effect when creating a lot of lather and rinsing. 4. The cleansing power is strong enough to remove fine dust, and the ingredients seem very good. It has a scrubbing effect, but without the irritation of a scrub. You can really feel your skin become smooth and non-irritated when you apply moisturizer at night. There's no tightness or dryness after cleansing, just a nice, smooth finish.
Cons1. The powder type seems to have a high entry barrier. And the packaging is inconvenient. Since it's a powder format, this may be the best option, but there were some initial awkward moments and a bit of messiness while getting used to washing with it. It's inconvenient before getting accustomed to it. 2. You can't create a cream-like lather on top of it.
Tip* Don't turn the water on strongly over the powder - it will just blow the powder away ㅋㅋㅋ * They recommend creating enough lather first, then washing. If you gently rub the water-dampened powder with your (wet) hands or scoop some water-dampened powder onto your (wet) palms and massage it onto your face, you'll get a bit more of a scrubbing sensation. * You don't need to use a lot if the lather isn't building up a lot. (About 1.5-2 times the amount in the photo is enough) It cleans sufficiently! ☞ No, the more you use, the richer the lather will become! A smaller amount is enough to cleanse, but the feeling of abundant lather is so nice!
