It's a cleanser that you can use comfortably without any issues.
ConsThe cleansing effectiveness is on the weaker side, so I used it as a second-step cleanser. It's not strong enough to remove makeup on its own.

The price is reasonable, and the generous size allows for liberal use, which is great. The cleansing effectiveness isn't bad either. It lathers well too. However, when I wear heavy makeup, it sometimes doesn't foam up easily, so I need to cleanse twice.
ConsAt first, I got a few blemishes... They say it's supposed to help, but it doesn't really do much for acne.

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.

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.

It's incredibly gentle and mild, yet it removes dead skin cells, leaving the skin smooth while also helping to soothe it. It has good cleansing effectiveness, though it doesn't produce much foam. There's no tightness after washing. I'd recommend this to anyone looking for hydrating blemish care. However, the scent might be a hit or miss for some.
ConsThe scent: It's like a mix of medicinal and herbal aromas, which I personally really don't like.

Fragrance is such a personal preference, and I generally dislike artificial scents in skincare (except for body products). This one has a refreshing eucalyptus-like aroma that I found quite pleasant.
ConsUnfortunately, the cleansing effectiveness, which is the primary function of a cleanser, was disappointing. Even though it's a low pH product, there are many other gentle cleansers out there that manage to cleanse well without being harsh like alkaline cleansers. This one reminds me of the early days of low pH cleansers. It might work for those with extremely dry, super sensitive skin, but for average skin types or those who wear makeup regularly, it's likely not sufficient.

It's similar to other foam cleansers Scent: The fragrance might be divisive, but I found it pleasant Blemishes: I didn't experience any breakouts, and it seems to have slightly faded some old scars. My skin appears a bit brighter, which I love!! Overall: It seems to be a reliable cleanser that doesn't cause blemishes
ConsThe scent might be polarizing. If you're sensitive to fragrances, I wouldn't recommend it
TipI recommend using it with a foam maker. If you use it as is, the lather isn't very rich!

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 Hwahae Testers Review✨ I've been dealing with blemishes, redness, and combination dehydrated skin for 10 years since my teenage years. I've always lived by the motto 'less is more' and 'original is best', choosing my skincare products accordingly. Previously, I used Make P:rem's Relief Moisture Cleansing Gel, which had a nice scent and was pleasant to use. When it ran out, I was fortunately selected for The Hwahae Testers and used this product for two weeks. Here's my review: First, I loved how smoothly it applied, gliding on like a cleansing gel. My dermatologist advised against using exfoliating toners, warning that friction can immediately worsen skin, and recommended cleansing gels instead. Now I understand why - this product significantly reduces friction. Secondly, I didn't experience any burning sensation or itching when using it. Usually, when I use incompatible cleansing products, my face immediately stings, itches, and burns as soon as I apply the foam (e.g., products with galactose or certain baking soda cleansers). That discomfort typically lasts for two days. However, this product caused no such reaction! It seems to have gentle ingredients. Lastly, it lathers well! I didn't expect it to, but even a small amount produces sufficient foam for a thorough cleanse.
ConsThe downside was that for the first two days, the scent was incredibly difficult to get used to. I kept wondering, 'What on earth is this smell?' I'm not sure what causes it, but it was even more intense than the Bohae Low pH Cleanser. Those sensitive to fragrances should keep this in mind.

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 my review as one of The Hwahae Testers: I have combination dehydrated skin that feels particularly tight after cleansing. My skin is prone to small bumps due to lack of hydration. I usually double cleanse with a gel cleanser when wearing makeup. Appearance: It's very sleek and gives off a 'cica' vibe. Personally, I find all COSRX packaging designs clean and display-worthy on my vanity. Scent: Simply put, it's like a forest scent? It smells like crushed herbs or medicinal plants. I'm not very sensitive to scents, so it didn't bother me, but my fragrance-sensitive sister disliked it. It might be a love-or-hate thing. Texture: It doesn't produce an abundance of foam, but it's sufficient for cleansing. You could probably get richer lather with a foam net, but I'm too lazy to use one. Cleansing effectiveness: I switched from foundation to BB cream a while ago, and this cleanser removed it satisfactorily (used with a vibrating cleansing device). However, it might struggle with heavy foundation and color makeup in one go. I'd recommend double cleansing or using it alongside another cleanser for those. Post-cleanse feel: The skin doesn't feel overly tight after washing. I'm quite sensitive to post-cleanse tightness depending on the cleanser, but this COSRX cica cleanser didn't cause severe tightness (even after leaving my face bare for about 10 minutes). I didn't experience any blemishes, and I think I'll continue using it without issues.
ConsRoom for improvement: While I have no complaints about the price, packaging design, or performance, if I had to nitpick, I think it would be even better if they could refine the scent to make it more agreeable for those with fragrance sensitivities.

I used it once in the morning and once in the evening. The scent isn't particularly fragrant, but it has a pleasant cica aroma! The case design also seems to have turned out quite luxurious. I didn't notice any significant changes in my blemishes. As for cleansing effectiveness, I felt it thoroughly removed my sunscreen. Considering the actual product price, the quantity is generous, making it perfect as a cost-effective cleanser!
ConsUnlike my usual cleansing foam, this one left a slightly slippery feeling. The fragrance aspect was a bit disappointing. Compared to when I used the INESSFREE Bija Cica Cleanser, this one smelled more chemical to me.
TipI'm using it well both morning and evening
