First off, the price-to-volume ratio is great, making it a very cost-effective product! The foam lathers up nicely and creates a rich, creamy texture. I use a foam net, which makes it even more luxurious and abundant. While the cleansing power isn't super intense due to its low pH nature, it's perfect for morning cleansing and as a second cleanser. I really appreciate how gentle the ingredients are on my skin.
ConsThe price is excellent, and the ingredients are pretty good too. I can't find any downsides. I just wish they'd have sales more often!

Being mildly acidic, it's gentle on the skin. I didn't experience any blemishes while using it.
ConsIt doesn't lather well, so the cleansing effectiveness isn't satisfactory. After rinsing, there's a slightly slippery feeling on the skin surface, and my skin feels... like it's lost elasticity and sagging a bit. Maybe because it's acidic, it's as if the skin has slightly melted. So I had to apply a collagen ampoule to replenish it. It doesn't effectively remove sebum from the pores either, leaving me unsatisfied. I ended up buying a different foam cleanser.

As for cleansing effectiveness, for a low pH foam cleanser, it does a pretty good job of washing everything away.
ConsUnfortunately, this product doesn't seem to agree with my skin. My face completely broke out... I've been struggling for a week now with tiny bumps all over my face. I usually use the blue Fola*** cleanser. Sadly, after using this for a week, I had to stop using it. Once my skin calms down, I might give it another try... but I'm honestly too scared and thinking of giving it to someone else.

As someone with sensitive and combination dehydrated skin, I avoid cleansers that dry me out. This one has a gentle pH, cleanses effectively, and keeps skin hydrated! Above all, I love its ingredients.
ConsThere wasn't much to dislike about this product. It's a cleanser that does its job well! However, for heavy makeup, you'll probably need to use a separate makeup remover first.
TipGreat as a first cleanse for light makeup or as a second cleanse for heavier looks. For mornings, I'd recommend an even lighter gel-type cleanser.

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.ProsThe Hwahae Testers review! Skin type: Combination, oily T-zone. Quick product summary: As it's a low pH cleanser, it didn't foam much and seemed to cause minor blemishes. Won't repurchase. Cleansing effectiveness: Not bad, but not particularly good either. After washing, there's a slight feeling that not everything has been cleaned off, leaving a vague sense of residue. Irritation: As it's low pH, irritation wasn't severe! Post-cleanse tightness: Usually, I experience quite a bit of tightness after cleansing, but with this product, there was none, which was great! Ingredients: The ingredients aren't bad! However, there are 3 ingredients that might not be good for super sensitive skin. Overall: A decent cleansing foam to use. It's my first time trying a COSRX product, and it doesn't seem too bad!
ConsScent: The fragrance was really unpleasant... My mom and I used it together, and she also said the scent was bad. Now I've gotten a bit used to it. Blemishes: It seemed to cause minor blemishes here and there. Even though my skincare routine stayed the same... I got some small bumps and uneven texture! Foam: It didn't foam up well. Ingredients: As mentioned above, there are 3 ingredients that might not be good for sensitive skin...
TipIf you use a foam maker, it creates foam well!

I typically stick to non-irritating products from dermatology clinics. However, this cleanser was a pleasant surprise - it didn't cause any special irritation and worked well for my skin. You can think of it as a mild, low pH cleanser that's gentle and suitable for most skin types. While it doesn't produce a ton of lather due to its low pH, I found it works great with a foaming net, which I always use with low pH products anyway! I'd definitely recommend this to anyone looking for a gentle cleanser that's kind to sensitive skin!
ConsThe only slight downside might be that it has a bit of a scent? But honestly, I'm not too bothered by fragrances, so it wasn't an issue for me. Plus, it's not an overly artificial smell.
TipMake sure to use it with a foaming net for the best results!

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.ProsHere's an honest review from The Hwahae Testers!! First, the reason for the three-star rating: decent performance, no major blemishes while using + haven't felt any significant advantages compared to other products during two weeks of use 1. Low pH I believe foam cleansers should always be low pH!! Recently, I've been stressed due to severe folliculitis on my chin from wearing masks and hot weather. To help, I focused on reducing irritation, lowering skin temperature, and most importantly, ☆☆low pH cleansing☆☆ to restore my skin barrier. While it hasn't completely recovered since I'm still wearing masks, it has improved, and I think this product has helped somewhat over the past two weeks. 2. Price for volume Well, I can't say it's super cheap (there are many affordable products these days), but the regular price of 13,000 won for 150ml seems reasonable! 3. Hydration I've used mung bean foam and Make P:rem foam before, and when I first used this product, I was a bit worried because the foam bubbles seemed large. However, there was less tightness after cleansing than expected! My cheeks tend to feel tight easily after washing, but I don't think that happened while using this product~
Cons1. Amount of foam Maybe it's because I don't use a lot of product, but I found it doesn't produce as much foam as I expected! Of course, I know that low pH products generally don't foam up much. It's not a major issue, but compared to my previous product, it seemed to produce slightly less foam. 2. Cica scent It was okay for me, but I'm mentioning it as a potential downside because the scent might be polarizing. It has that distinct cica smell!
TipI used this as my second cleanser since I wear makeup. I used Sidmool Cleansing Milk (1st step) + Fit Cica Foam Cleanser (2nd step). To avoid irritation, use an appropriate amount of foam cleanser and work it into a rich lather with your hands or a foam net before cleansing! After cleansing, apply your skincare products as quickly as possible after patting dry! Alternatively, I keep a toner or mist in the bathroom and spray it immediately to prevent my skin from drying 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.ProsAs someone with oily skin who's currently pregnant, I'm quite particular about ingredients. The texture reminds me of those old-school cleansing foams from stationery shops - an opaque white with a slight silvery sheen. For a low pH foam, it lathers up nicely. While it's hard to expect miracles from a cleansing foam, I don't like that squeaky-clean feeling even though I have oily skin. I prefer the signature low pH feel that doesn't dry out your skin and leaves it feeling hydrated. This product strikes a nice balance between the two. And these days, I'm sure no one's using cleansing foam directly on makeup, right? Since it's for the second cleanse, I feel the cleansing effectiveness is fine as long as it doesn't cause blemishes.
ConsThe packaging is a white tube. I'm not a fan of the cap being on the bottom as it can get grimy, making it unpleasant to open and close. I prefer pump bottles, so that's a bit disappointing. Also, the opening is narrow, so you need to squeeze hard to get the desired amount out. The scent is... something indescribable. Whether it's herbal or chemical, it's too strong. It's a bit overwhelming when massaging it on your face.
TipRemember to always work up a rich lather with the right amount of water in your hands before massaging the cleansing foam onto your face!

Even though it's a low pH cleansing foam, it lathers well and seems to have decent cleansing effectiveness. I use it as my second cleanse after an oil cleanser.
ConsThere's a slightly sharp scent when using it, which I think might be the cica fragrance. Those sensitive to scents might want to keep this in mind.
TipIt works even better for soothing when used alongside the COSRX Cica line.

The ingredients are good too. However, I'm not sure if it's particularly beneficial for me. The cleansing effectiveness seems decent. On days I wore foundation, I used this as a second cleanser after my cleansing water. When I wiped with toner afterward, there was no residue left behind. There are quite a few downsides, so I'll mention those in the 'bad' section.
Cons1. It causes more blemishes - Usually, cleansers don't cause me to break out, but strangely, one or two pimples appeared at first, then inflammatory acne spread across my entire face. I barely managed to calm it down with aloe and spot treatments. I thought, 'Could it really be because of this?' I typically get acne when I consume rich dairy, lack sleep, or when my cleansing isn't thorough enough. These factors often coincided when I used this product, so I wasn't sure if it was to blame. However, for about a week, I eliminated these factors and the only change was this cleansing foam. No matter how well I cleansed and moisturized, there was no sign of improvement. Right after writing this review, I decided to stop using it. 2. User experience - It's not very elastic, and being low pH, it doesn't lather much. The scent is a bit... I'm not usually sensitive to smells, but this one became more unpleasant the more I used it. Also, at first, my skin felt dry after cleansing. I thought it was just because I suddenly changed products, but I should have stopped using it then. Sometimes my skin looked clear and felt hydrated, but that was only after using a sheet mask or aloe soothing pack the night before. When I used this product alone without supplementing with other products, it felt like it was actually harmful to my skin.
TipIf you have acne-prone skin, make sure to try a sample before purchasing. Even if other products with Cica/Centella Asiatica extract work for you, this one might not. Don't take it lightly just because it's a rinse-off product - definitely test a sample first!
