I was able to use this product comfortably. The scent is also very pleasant, and my face felt smooth and refreshed after cleansing, especially in the morning rather than in the evening. I have sensitive skin, not oily skin, so I've been looking for non-irritating products, and this one has been working well without any irritation.
ConsThe only downside is that it is a bit runny, so when I squeeze it out, it tends to drip down.
TipI find it works better in the morning than in the evening, and if you work up a lather and gently massage it on your face while cleansing, it's even better!

While the cleansing power is not extremely strong, I was satisfied that it does not irritate the skin too much. Many people say the scent is not great, but I found the artificial scent to be refreshing and not unpleasant. It's not a strong fragrance, and I actually quite liked the scent. Typically, cleansers are very strong at removing makeup, leaving the skin squeaky clean after use. However, this product is great as a morning cleanser, gently cleansing the skin without that tight, stripped feeling. After cleansing, the skin feels soft and supple, as if the product has effectively removed impurities and dead skin cells. When I used it without makeup, the product produced a good amount of lather. As for the downsides, I'll mention them below, but when using this to remove makeup, I felt that my base makeup was not completely removed. Even after cleansing and wiping with a pad, there were still some residues left behind. While it generally removes makeup well, there are times when I still notice some leftover product. (The last photo shows the pad after cleansing, where there seems to be some remaining makeup that was not fully removed.)
ConsI mentioned that I liked the fact that the cleansing power is not too strong and it's lightweight, but I actually see that as a downside for this product. When I used it to remove my makeup, I was really surprised - the product that lathered up so well in the morning suddenly lost all its foam as soon as it touched my makeup, and I ended up just washing with plain water. I didn't feel like I was actually cleansing at all. And because it turns into water, it just runs down my arms in streams, getting all over my sleeves. This may not be a big deal for some, but I really dislike this aspect. Initially, the product transforms into a foam-like texture when lathering, but as soon as it hits the makeup, it turns back into soapy water. After a few swipes, this soapy water mixes with the foundation, leaving an unpleasant, sticky feeling. I also found this product to be quite drying. It's marketed as being for oily skin, but even as someone with normal skin, I felt my skin was left very tight after cleansing. I can imagine it would be even more drying for those with dry skin. Lastly, the after-feel is not great. Even after rinsing 10 or more times, the slippery feeling doesn't go away. By the second or third use, it became so slippery that when I wiped my skin before it dried, the soapy water residue came off on the towel. I'd definitely recommend using a toner after cleansing with this product.
TipUse as little water as possible on your hands when applying this product, and gently roll it on your skin. ๐ I would recommend this to: - Those looking for a lightweight morning cleanser - Those with sensitive skin or a lot of dead skin cells - Those seeking a low-irritation cleanser

ConsIf you use just a little, the foam generation doesn't work well;;; The formula is~~ Like water, it just flows down, so doing things like taking photos and lathering it up alone is;;;; It seems a bit pricey to use sparingly^^;;; But I'm using it because I won the event~~
TipIf you use a foam net, you'll be able to use it well^^ The foam net is useful here and there, so it would be good to get one from a 100-yen store and use it~~^^

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.ProsEven first-time users can try this product without much concern. โ Despite being mildly acidic, it has good cleansing power. Since I don't wear much makeup, just sunscreen, eyebrows, and lips, it removes them thoroughly on its own. (After confirming the cleansing power, I used it as the second step after a natural soap.) The cleansing power isn't as strong as regular cleansers, but for a mild product, the cleansing ability is quite satisfactory. โ No breakouts have occurred so far. It's also effective at removing dead skin and sebum. For this Hwahae review, I didn't do any additional exfoliation or sebum removal for 2 weeks, using only this product (along with a soothing face mask 2 times a week), and I saw results in terms of dead skin and sebum control. After cleansing, using a toner to refine the skin texture, my skin didn't develop any flakiness in the 2 weeks, even without additional care. (When applying makeup, you need to keep the skin hydrated, or the makeup can look uneven.) And the blackheads!!!! I chose this clarifying foaming cleanser specifically for the blackheads, and it was an excellent choice. ใ ใ I'm very satisfied with the results on the blackheads. Even without any additional blackhead care, they have faded significantly. I also noticed improved sebum control. Normally, my skin would start getting shiny around 3-4 pm, but the shine has reduced. I'd recommend this to anyone with oily skin๐๐๐ In this aspect, the product lived up to its name and description. I used to only look for mild products, but this one is gentle yet effectively controls sebum, which is exactly what oily skin types want๐๐๐
ConsThose who dislike mild acidity or are first-time users may miss the squeaky-clean feeling. Since the texture is a bit more watery than typical gel, those sensitive to runny textures may not like it. Those who prefer fluffy, voluminous lather may feel disappointed. โ As a dry-combination skin type, I experienced rapid dryness right after cleansing. The surface felt like there was a moisturizing layer due to the mild acidity, but the inner layers felt dry and cracked. This is probably an inevitable aspect of the clarifying nature of the product. Controlling sebum likely leads to dryness. This was a bit disappointing for me. Achieving both hydration and sebum control is probably too much to ask. โ While it's excellent at sebum control, the dryness made it unsuitable as a daily cleanser for me. I used it daily for a week, but felt the dryness, so I reduced it to every other day, supplementing with a more hydrating cleanser to replenish moisture. โ I know Neutrogena isn't a budget brand, but I felt the price was a bit high compared to other cleansers. I'm satisfied with the exfoliation and sebum control, and the every-other-day usage is manageable, so I'm considering repurchasing, but the price makes me think twice. The quantity is decent, and the results are good, but there are so many great value-for-money products out there, so the price is a bit of a letdown. Especially for a cleanser that gets used up quickly, 17,500 won feels burdensome.
Tipโ If you use too much water and pump too much, the product may run down due to the texture. Use less water when applying. โ Use a cleansing brush or your hands to work up a lather, then gently cleanse - focus on the nose area for blackheads. Blackheads, be gone! ๐ โ If you feel dryness, use it every 2-3 days. โ Right after cleansing, immediately apply toner. This will prevent any dryness. โ When doing your skincare routine, be sure to focus on hydration. โ If you find this product effectively manages your exfoliation and sebum, you can space out those treatments. โ After 2 weeks of use by 2 people, we used up the product to the bottom of the "LABS" lettering - reference for the amount. 1: Used daily the 1st week, then every other day with half a pump the 2nd week. 2: Used every 3 days with half a pump from the 1st to 2nd week. ๐ While I had to deduct a star for the price and dryness, overall I'm satisfied with the product.๐

Consโฅ Texture The texture is too watery. So when you scoop it into your hands to cleanse, it just flows down your arms, making it difficult to use. โฅ Cleansing Power The cleansing power doesn't seem to be that great. So I would recommend it as a first cleanse for those who do a double cleanse, but not for those who only do a single cleanse. If I had paid for this with my own money, I might have regretted it...
TipThe cleansing power doesn't seem to be that great, so I would recommend it for those who don't wear heavy makeup. Or you could use it as a morning cleanser like I do.

Thorough Cleansing: Although it is a gel type, making me wonder if it would effectively remove makeup, the cleansing power turned out to be better than expected! It did not sting my eyes excessively when wiping the eye area, and I was able to cleanse my face thoroughly without leaving much makeup residue behind~ 2. Pumping: Many cosmetic products have issues with pumping, but this one pumped out smoothly and softly. The amount dispensed per pump was also generous and easy to control! 3. Fragrance: The fragrance is not artificial and feels refreshing, leaving a pleasant sensation after cleansing. 4. Finish: There is a noticeable difference in skin smoothness before and after using this cleanser. As it is a mildly acidic cleanser, my skin feels soft and smooth upon completion.
Cons1. Inconvenience due to gel texture: It seems to work best when using very little water. Due to the gel type, it tended to run down my arms a bit, which was slightly inconvenient ใ
TipI would recommend either using just a small amount of water or lathering the gel directly on the face. I used this product for sebum control, but for those focused on hydration, I would suggest trying a hydrating foaming gel cleanser instead!

When rubbed with the hands, it produces fine bubbles. Even after cleansing, the mild and moisturizing feel of the cleansing foam remains. Personally, I prefer this type of usage experience over a squeaky clean feeling, so I liked it.
ConsThe pump packaging design was a bit inconvenient for me. Depending on how you press it, the cleansing foam can just flow out.
