The soap is a bit drying and tends to crumble, but the thoughtful inclusion of a soap dish is really nice~!!
ConsThe cleansing power is a bit lacking when applying makeup ㅠ I'll have to use it more to know for sure, but so far there are no downsides~!
TipThe pro-tip is to definitely use the soap dish~! It seems to prevent the soap from dissolving too quickly in the water, which is great.

I'm using the sample while waiting for the main product to arrive) a. As the name suggests, it's great for zero waste. The soap came in a simple box without excessive packaging, which I liked. b. After cleansing, my face doesn't feel tight at all! But it also doesn't feel like it's not fully cleansed either. The mildly acidic cleanser I used before left an unclean feeling, but the Cynic Zero Waste Soap felt like a regular soap cleansing.
Consa. The soap holder that comes with it only serves to store the soap, so those who use a lather net will need to buy one separately. b. The soap does lather, but the lather isn't as rich and creamy as mildly acidic cleansers. c. It's not the most powerful cleanser, so those who wear makeup should use this as a final step after thoroughly removing their makeup.
Tipa. If you put the soap in a net, you can use it until the very end without it cracking or crumbling from repeated use-drying cycles! b. For areas with high sebum buildup like the nose or chin, using a pore brush or finger towel for additional care would be beneficial.

ConsThe cleansing effect is not that great. It might be suitable for someone with oily skin in the morning, just rinsing their face with water. It would be better if it had a bit more fragrance, but it's similar to laundry soap, so it might not be suitable for use on the body during sweaty seasons. Lastly, it's too soft in water and crumbles easily. It would have been difficult to use without a cloth soap bag.

The scent was not irritating and was close to unscented, which I personally liked. The cleansing was quite helpful as well.
ConsWhile it does cleanse, I didn't feel completely refreshed using just one. I've been using it as a second step after first using a cleansing foam.

Skin type: Oily, with excess sebum The most important thing is that it cleanses well! I haven't experienced any breakouts or issues after using it. However, since I have an oily complexion, I tend to use products with strong cleansing power, and this one, being mildly acidic, doesn't have the best cleansing ability. That said, I've been using it on my body and it's been great! Washing with this makes my skin feel so soft and smooth. My skin is on the drier side, but this keeps it nicely hydrated. I'm very satisfied!
ConsAs it's a mildly acidic soap, it may not provide the best cleansing power, so I've been using it only in the mornings.
TipI'm really happy with how it works on my body!

Do you know the transparent soap base? That's the scent. It's like the Neuskin Cleansing Bar, which is unscented! ✨Usage First of all, it's much more moisturizing than regular cleansing foam. I think it would be great for dry skin. I thought the Dokdo Cleansing Foam was also quite moisturizing, but this one feels more smooth and polished. The cleansing power is not super strong, so it's perfect as a secondary cleanse. I highly recommend it to those who use cleansing water or oil - it's much gentler on the skin and doesn't strip it as much as some other cleansing foams (like Shiseido). When I have heavy makeup on, using this after oil cleansing really helps remove that slippery feeling, and my skin feels comfortable even after skipping a skincare step. And I used to be the redness queen, but the redness has gone down a bit!!!! But I'm not sure about the acne-calming effect - since I'm basically a force of nature, you might want to check other reviews for that. ✨Using on Body or Hair This part is really up to personal preference. I always go for products with nice fragrances for body and hair, so I don't reach for this unscented soap very often. But I did try it on my body, and the finish is smooth and non-drying, which is great. You can always use a nice body lotion to add the fragrance back, so I'd recommend trying this as a body wash.
ConsFirst of all, I wouldn't recommend using the included mesh. The soap is too big and you have to really force it in, but a regular mesh gets a much fluffier lather. Use that instead. And as a standalone cleanser, it's definitely not strong enough.
TipUse the mesh!

I'm using a mildly acidic cleanser, but during times like these, I applied for the Hwahae Trial Reviewer program to find some hope! I've been using the Sionik The Simple Skin Lotion for a few years, so I tried it with confidence. Without a doubt, the ingredients are the key. I like how simple it is, as the name suggests. So, I didn't experience any significant increase in pimples, excessive irritation, or unbearable fragrance. However, I also didn't notice any noticeable improvement in skin health. It's truly more simple. 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻 You might think, 'What's the big deal?' but for a person with atopic dermatitis, the fact that my face doesn't break out is a good product...
ConsHowever, as a working person, the makeup doesn't come off easily. I understand this part, as it's mildly acidic and gentle. It seems more suitable for the body than the face. As for the pouch that came with it... I'll hold back on my words....😩
TipI find it more effective on my body, especially the small pimples that appear on my chest and other areas. I don't always have them, but I'm the type who gets flushed easily, so I sometimes get little pimples on my upper body. They seem to subside with this product.🥴

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💛 Skin type: My cheeks and forehead are dry, but my T-zone is oily, so I have a combination skin type. It's a sensitive skin type that easily breaks out in small bumps even with a slightly unsuitable product, dryness, or excess oil. That's why I tend to check the ingredients before using any products! My body is generally dry, but I get small bumps that come and go on my back and chest. I'm not sure what the cause is. 😭 First, I tried the cleansing bar for the first time. I wanted to try it since it's said to be gentle. I was more interested in using it for body cleansing than face cleansing! My face is currently well-managed, so as long as it doesn't cause a major breakout, I think the gentle product is fine. I observed my face for about 3 days. I kept my other routine the same and only used the cleansing bar for cleansing. As expected, it didn't cause any breakouts, but the cleansing power was a bit lacking. I had to double cleanse to feel satisfied. But so far, there's no trouble, and I'm satisfied! After washing, my skin feels moisturized. Since I usually apply my skincare products within 3 minutes of washing, my skin doesn't feel tight or dry at all - it's left feeling soft and supple. The light cleansing in the morning seems to be good! I'm satisfied. As for my body, the cleansing bar seems to have helped reduce some of the small bumps compared to when I used body wash. I've only used it for about 3 days, and there's no significant trouble so far. I plan to continue using it. 😊
ConsThe only disappointing aspect is the mesh sponge! The mesh sponge is too small, so it was a struggle to fit the cleansing bar into it. Because it's so tightly packed, the lather doesn't form well. It's too much of a hassle to use. It's very difficult to use it for the body, as the lather doesn't form well, and I'm not even sure if I'm cleaning properly. Pumping the body wash twice is much faster and more convenient, so I don't reach for the cleansing bar often. The mesh sponge seems to be the issue. 😭 As a facial cleanser, the cleansing power is a bit lacking. I feel like I need to double cleanse to get a thorough clean - the first time, the lather is minimal, and I'm not sure if I'm actually cleansing properly, but the second time, the lather forms better, and I feel more cleansed. So if I just want to remove sunscreen, I think I'll need to use a separate cleansing water or lotion. The blackheads haven't gone away, unfortunately. After using it on my body, my skin feels dry. When I use it on my face, I immediately apply my skincare products, so I didn't notice the dryness, and my skin actually felt moisturized. But on my body, after washing, my skin felt quite dry, and I had to apply a lot of body lotion. Other than that, the product is gentle and good, so I'd like to continue using it!!
TipI recommend double cleansing! It seems to work well as a simple morning facial cleanser. For those who don't wear makeup or just use sunscreen, this could be a good option for facial cleansing as well! If you have small bumps on your body, I'd recommend trying a different body wash first. For me, switching to the cleansing bar has helped improve the small bumps on my body. ☺️

But this product didn't have any of those issues at all. It seems the ingredients are really good and gentle. After cleansing, my skin doesn't feel tight or dry, but rather moisturized, similar to the mild acidic cleansers I normally use! > Fragrance The fragrance seems to be a love-it-or-hate-it kind of thing. I personally love it! It's almost fragrance-free, but there's a faint baby-like scent, if I had to describe it. > Great Lather! Normally, with soaps or foam cleansers, you need a lather net to get a good lather. But the Sainic soap lathers up well even without the lather net, making it convenient to use.
Cons> The lather net that came with it seems a bit small compared to the size of the soap. I had to force it in, which made the soap surface look a bit damaged, so I ended up just keeping it in the soap case. > Cleansing Power Being a mild acidic soap, the cleansing power is a bit weaker. But it should be suitable as a secondary cleansing step.
TipIt's probably better to keep the lather net in the soap case rather than forcing it into the soap. Using this in the morning for cleansing and as a secondary cleanser in the evening would be a good routine.😀
