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!

I've only used it for morning cleansing, but its cleansing effectiveness is so good that it would probably work well as a second cleanser too.
ConsI wouldn't recommend this to those who prefer a squeaky-clean finish after washing.

At first, I felt a slight tingling sensation, but that disappeared with continued use. Now, my skin feels moisturized and gentle even after cleansing. I'm definitely considering a repurchase! The scent is a refreshing herbal aroma that leaves you feeling invigorated after washing. As for lather, just a small amount creates a rich foam, making it perfect for cleansing.
ConsBeing a low pH product, it has a slightly slippery texture. The cool herbal scent might be hit or miss for some. The biggest drawback is that the cap doesn't close properly - it's a minor issue, but annoying.
TipSince the cap doesn't seal well, you'll need to double-check it's closed properly after each use.

That really appealed to me. Looking at the ingredients list, you can see them listed from the middle onwards. Regarding lather, squeezing it twice onto your index finger produces a decent amount. While it's not an overwhelming foam, it seems to lather up well for the amount used, which isn't bad. P.S. The second photo shows the amount of foam created from a full squeeze on one knuckle of my index finger. The after-feel: Once I removed the water with a towel, my skin felt dry yet soft. There wasn't a moisturized feeling, but the soft, powdery finish was quite nice. There was also a very subtle scent of the extracts (a herbal aroma). I didn't mind this aspect at all.
ConsWhile the foam isn't bad, it doesn't create a rich lather, so you might go through the product quickly. Also, as you massage it in, the foam disappears rather fast, which was disappointing. So, in terms of lather, it felt pretty average. The product doesn't come out with much force - the texture seems to drip, which affected my usage. When you first squeeze it out, there's a strong herbal scent. It's fresh and crisp, but overall quite potent. I'm not a fan of strong scents, so I didn't like this aspect. After use, only the herbal scent remains and the intensity fades, which wasn't bad! After rinsing, the scent is barely noticeable. Just FYI! Right after use, the finish felt soft, but over time it became more drying. It started feeling smooth but then my skin began to feel rough, which was disappointing. I wouldn't really recommend this for acne-prone skin. Based on user reviews and ingredients (there are three red flags in the ingredient list), it might not be suitable. Make sure to thoroughly check the ingredients and full ingredient list to choose a product that suits you! Remember, everyone's skin is different, so take this as a reference only.
TipMake sure to wet your face thoroughly before use to prevent the foam from disappearing too quickly! Also, pool some water in your palm before squeezing out the product, and mix it carefully to prevent it from dripping. Since the finish can feel dry, apply moisturizer quickly after rinsing!

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.ProsFirst, I tried lathering up a moderate amount with water, not expecting much. To my surprise, the foam was rich and the cleansing experience was incredibly gentle compared to other products. I really loved how it cleansed without any irritation, feeling so soft on my skin.
ConsWhile it cleanses very gently and rinses off cleanly, I have dry skin prone to deep dryness. If I don't apply a hydrating product very quickly after patting my face dry, I feel some tightness, which is disappointing. I highly recommend this for those with oily skin - both the feel during use and after cleansing would be perfect. However, I wouldn't suggest it for those with very dry skin. That said, on days when my skin is struggling with excess oil and sweat, it cleanses thoroughly, so I'll continue using it.
TipBecause it feels so soft during cleansing and leaves your skin feeling refreshingly clean, if you don't have extremely dry skin, you could really enjoy this product. Just be sure to apply a hydrating product quickly after use to counteract any potential dryness. This way, you can fully appreciate the benefits of this 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: Dry - Severe skin tightness after cleansing (feels like skin is shrinking, so I need to apply toner 2-3 times after washing to ensure good absorption) - Around the nose, something like sebum or roughness often appears, which can cause blemishes if not cleaned thoroughly What I liked: - Moisturizing and lathers easily. When choosing skincare products, I prioritize hydration, and this product leaves a soft, creamy foam that retains the gentle (slippery) feel and moisture characteristic of low pH cleansers even after rinsing. This aspect might be divisive, but personally, I enjoyed the slippery and hydrating sensation. - The ingredients seem gentle. I experienced no blemishes while using it. The scent seems typical of cica products - I found it fine, but it has a slightly sharp note that might not be for everyone.
ConsThe roughness around the nose remains slightly after cleansing. The pore cleansing effectiveness seems a bit weaker compared to other products with denser foam. I deducted one star for this reason.
TipI usually only wear mineral sunscreen, but as the cleansing foam alone didn't feel sufficient, I lightly wiped with a cleansing water before washing. I'd recommend using this as a second cleanse after a separate cleansing water or oil for the first step.

Soft and rich lather The cleanser's texture is gentle, and it produces a satisfyingly dense yet abundant foam, allowing for effective removal of impurities without irritation during cleansing. 2. Contains Cica extract for soothing benefits This seems to be the ideal cleansing foam for those with sensitive skin or those who respond well to Centella Asiatica extract, especially when used in conjunction with other Cica-based skincare products. 3. Minimalist and sophisticated design The packaging design is sleek and appealing. 4. Clean finish without residue, despite being a low pH cleanser While low pH cleansers typically leave a slightly slippery feeling even after rinsing, this product finishes relatively fresh, which is a plus.
ConsThe scent might be divisive. Due to the Centella Asiatica extract, it has a distinctive aroma. Personally, I don't dislike this scent, so I didn't find it off-putting during use.

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.ProsThis is a review from The Hwahae Testers I have extremely oily skin with mild dermatitis and occasional small blemishes. As fellow oily-skinned folks can relate, we know low pH cleansers are good, but they often leave you feeling like the sebum isn't fully washed off, or they actually don't cleanse thoroughly. So I usually prefer a squeaky-clean feel over low pH cleansers. However, this product maintains the moisturizing benefits of a low pH cleanser while still providing a thorough cleanse. What's even better is that it produces an incredibly rich lather, making it suitable for evening use due to its effectiveness. I typically experience eye irritation with many products, but this one doesn't sting my eyes at all when I open them. The packaging is also attractive, white, and doesn't clash with bathroom decor. Since I regularly use propolis ampoules, I have high trust in the brand, allowing me to purchase and use this product without hesitation.
ConsThere's nothing else disappointing except for the scent... the fragrance is really intense. I'm not usually sensitive to scents, but this one is so strong it's quite memorable. I'm not sure if it's just me, but after washing, it feels like the scent lingers in the bathroom? It's a powerful aroma that stimulates the nose. I think this aspect will definitely be a love-it-or-hate-it feature. To describe the scent, it's like braised monkfish or water dropwort? That's the kind of smell it has... I deducted one star because of the fragrance!
TipThis product lathers so well and doesn't irritate the eyes, so it's great to use in the evening by applying the foam like a mask and leaving it on.

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.ProsThis is a review from The Hwahae Testers! First off, I loved how gentle it was. It didn't cause any blemishes and I used it comfortably without any issues. Also, when rinsing, it creates bubbly foam that washes off without causing any deep dryness, leaving my skin feeling soft and smooth!
ConsIt doesn't lather well... Even when using a large amount, the foam wasn't as rich as I'd expect for the quantity used. This might vary from person to person, but as someone who loves abundant foam, this was a bit disappointing for me.
TipI'm not sure if it's the typical cica scent, but it had a peculiar smell! It didn't bother me so I just used it, but if you're sensitive to fragrances, it might not suit you well!
