In my opinion!! Other foam cleansers often have many functional ingredients, and even things like oils or tea tree can sometimes feel heavy, but this has a clean feel. Being a gel, it's soft and lathers very well. It's on the hydrating side.
ConsIt's not extremely hydrating. So it removes oil moderately well. (It's not drying though) Because it's so gentle, there aren't really any downsides. The scent is fine to me, but it's a bit like dish soap?

I absolutely detest harsh, drying cleansers, but the Needly Cleansing Gel felt gentle and hydrating even on my skin type. It's not a squeaky-clean feeling, but rather a calm and effective removal of impurities. After cleansing, there was no tightness or dryness - I was very satisfied with it as a basic cleanser, even though I don't wear makeup often. My brother, who's quite picky about skincare ingredients due to his acne and blemishes, noticed a reduction in new small pimples. While it may not have had a dramatic effect on existing acne, he did see noticeable improvement with those tiny bumps. Of course, we'll need to use it longer to fully assess its effectiveness.
ConsThe scent was a bit off-putting for me... It reminded me of detergent. While it's not a major concern during cleansing, if I had to point out one drawback, it would be the somewhat masculine, soap-like fragrance.

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.ProsThe Hwahae Testers review: *Skin Type* Combination dehydrated skin, prone to deep dryness when in contact with water, occasional blemishes when tired or irritated. Oily T-zone and butterfly zone, normal cheeks, super sensitive skin that tingles immediately with incompatible products. ○ True to its 'mild' name, it's incredibly gentle! I usually stick to my tried-and-true cleansers as my skin tingles with unsuitable foam cleansers, but this one caused no irritation even around the eyes! Recommended for morning cleansing too! ○ As described, there's no slippery feeling after cleansing. It leaves skin feeling refreshingly clean! ○ Some pump bottles can be tricky, but this one dispenses smoothly with just the right amount per pump. ○ Surprisingly good lather! I had a preconception that gel cleansers don't foam well, but this one exceeded my expectations. ○ The product description mentioned it's suitable for back acne. After two weeks of use, while there weren't dramatic effects, its gentle, slightly acidic formula seemed to prevent new blemishes from forming! (I usually get back acne quickly if I neglect my back care routine)
Cons○ The cleansing power is nowhere near that of a regular foam cleanser... While it works fine for me as I use cleansing oil first and then this as a second, lighter cleanse, it might be too weak if used alone. ○ Moisturizing ability? Not so sure... As someone prone to deep dryness, I felt my skin tightening soon after cleansing and patting dry, so it seems to fall short in hydration. ○ The scent reminds me of dish soap... At first, I thought it was okay, but as I massaged it into my skin, it kept reminding me of something familiar... Then it hit me - it smells like dishwashing liquid! The clear gel texture also adds to the feeling of washing your face with dish soap... = Overall => While it's gentle and non-irritating, the weak cleansing power means that gentleness is its only real merit, with no other significant advantages.
TipRather than using it alone, I recommend using this as a second-step cleanser after removing makeup with a cleansing oil, water, or balm that suits your skin type for a gentle finish to your cleansing routine.

The Needlee Cleansing Gel is labeled as a functional cosmetic that helps alleviate acne-prone skin, so I felt confident using it even while struggling with adult acne. Therefore, I recommend it for those dealing with blemishes as it can be used without irritating the skin. I heard this product can also be used on the body, and after trying it myself, I found it worked well. It helped reduce acne on my neck and back areas. Volume: It's 235ml. Personally, I find that using about two pumps produces plenty of lather. Texture: It's a gel. This was my first time using a gel product, so I was a bit worried, but to me, it felt just like liquid soap. Packaging: The square-shaped bottle doesn't tip over easily. It also fits nicely on shelves. The design seems to be trending on Instagram. The pump works well too. It has a design that looks like it could be found in a hotel bathroom. Cleansing effectiveness: Personally, I liked that it cleanses without being harsh on the skin. I really dislike when my skin feels tight or painful, and I didn't experience that with the Needlee Mild Cleansing Gel. I appreciated how it effectively removed surface oils without irritating the deeper layers of my skin. If you asked me what I found most satisfactory about this product, it would be how gentle and comfortable it feels on the skin. The gel primarily works on the skin's surface, thoroughly removing excess oil. With no residual oiliness, it helps prevent blemishes from forming. I think it's excellent at controlling excess sebum.
ConsBlemish occurrence: It was a product that helped reduce blemishes. It worked well for me. Not recommended for: Recently, due to COVID-19, I haven't had many occasions to wear makeup, so I didn't use it for removing makeup. Scent: It really smells like dish soap... I'm not sure about it... Some people say they get used to it, but I don't seem to be adapting well... It's a shame, as I would have liked it more if the fragrance was better. It seems like they put effort into the scent by adding fragrance, but I think I would have preferred if it was fragrance-free instead.
TipI recommend using about two pumps. It's also good to use as a substitute for body emulsion. It effectively removes excess sebum and other oily residues from the skin.

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.ProsI was lucky enough to be selected as one of The Hwahae Testers and have been using this product for about a week. I applied for this product test because I've been struggling with persistent blemishes on my neck lately. As someone who hasn't settled on a cleansing routine yet, this was an excellent opportunity to try something new. The product's packaging is elegantly beautiful - it's the kind of thing that makes you smile as soon as you see it! What I liked most was how it cleanses gently without feeling slippery, yet doesn't leave my skin feeling stripped. It strikes just the right balance. While the foam isn't super rich, I use about two pumps after my cleansing oil to remove light makeup. Despite the small-looking bottle, it actually contains 235ml. I've been sharing it with my son, and we've used this much in a week as shown in the photo. My son, who has acne, hasn't noticed any dramatic changes, but he appreciates that it's not irritating. I agree - it feels very gentle. At the end of the day, a mild and non-irritating cleanser is really the best thing you can ask for.
ConsOne downside I noticed right away was the scent. It took me a moment to place it, but then I realized - it smells like dish soap! I'm quite sensitive to scents, but I've gotten used to it after using the product several times. Also, I noticed it contains two potentially harmful ingredients, including fragrance. I wish they had chosen a different scent, if they had to include one at all.
TipSince it doesn't foam up a lot, it's best to use two pumps. The gel consistency means it might run out a bit faster if you're heavy-handed with the pumping.

I was a bit worried since my skin was quite irritated after undergoing extractions and peeling at the dermatologist, but this product was very gentle and didn't irritate my sensitive skin at all. Acne-prone skin: While I can't say it had miraculous effects, I didn't notice it causing any new blemishes. Let's be honest, it's difficult for one product to completely eliminate acne. I was satisfied that it didn't make my breakouts worse. I've attached some photos. Although my skin isn't in great condition right now, it hasn't worsened since I started using this cleanser 7 days ago, 4 days after my dermatologist treatment. No new blemishes have appeared while using it! Product size: Some people say the amount is small, but I think it's adequate. If you use it mainly on your face, it should last about two months. Stopper clip: As you can see in the photo, it has a pump with a stopper clip. This is really convenient when traveling. I have super sensitive skin, so I always bring my cleanser and cream when staying overnight somewhere. With pump products, I used to worry about them leaking in my bag, but the clip on this one eliminates that concern.
ConsMay not remove heavy makeup completely: Because it's so gentle, it might not fully remove heavy makeup. On days when I wear makeup, I'll probably use a cleansing water first or use this as a morning cleanser. Scent: Personally, I didn't like the fragrance... it smelled a bit like dish soap.
TipGreat as a gentle cleanser after dermatological treatments or procedures. On days when you wear makeup, it's best to use this in the morning or use a cleansing water first.

But as soon as I opened the box, I was struck by how beautiful the packaging was! It matched my white bathroom perfectly, which I loved. Since I wear light makeup, I usually just use foam for the first step of cleansing. The texture of this cleanser is like liquid soap. When I used one pump to wash my face, it was a game-changer! It's not that I rubbed it with water, but as soon as water touched it, the soap seemed to disappear completely. It wasn't squeaky clean, just a feeling of the soap being gone. Interestingly, it didn't leave any oily residue, but it felt refreshing and clean in a unique way... It's hard to explain! After using it for two weeks, I haven't experienced any blemishes, and overall, it seems like a good, reliable product.
ConsThe scent reminded me of dishwashing liquid, which was a bit off-putting! While it doesn't leave your skin feeling tight and does provide some hydration after rinsing, I noticed some deep dryness setting in pretty quickly.

The texture is a thin gel type. It's perfect for those who don't wear much makeup and want a daily cleanser. As a student who rarely wears makeup, I found it ideal for everyday use. It's incredibly gentle! I've tried many cleansers - foams, gels, oils - and quite a few stung my skin. But this one didn't sting at all! The after-feel is a nice balance between squeaky clean and slippery. It didn't leave my skin feeling dry either. Plus, the packaging design is lovely!
ConsPersonally, I felt the volume was a bit small. I wish they'd keep the price the same but increase the amount. Also, I'd prefer if they removed the fragrance. While it's not unpleasant, it reminds me of dish soap.
TipWash your hands thoroughly with soap, then use a foam net to create a rich lather with the product before cleansing. (Don't cleanse for too long.) For post-makeup cleansing: First, remove lip and eye makeup with a dedicated remover. Then use a powerful cleanser once, followed by the Needly Cleansing Gel for a final cleanse.

It's like I can feel my skin becoming clearer, haha! ♡Usually, gentle foam cleansers have larger bubbles, but this one produces lots of small, fine bubbles. That's exactly what you want in a foam cleanser! It gives you that thorough cleansing feeling. ♡Some products leave a slippery residue even after rinsing, but this one washes off cleanly. ♡My skin has been feeling softer lately... This is the only thing I've changed in my routine. I wonder if it has some skin-softening ingredients? ♡I always remove my makeup separately, so I never noticed any lack in cleansing power. I appreciate that this focuses more on being gentle than on intense cleansing.
ConsHowever, I was hoping it would help with blemishes as claimed, but it had no effect on them at all. I was disappointed when I suddenly had a breakout and this didn't seem to help at all. I was lucky enough to try this as part of The Hwahae Testers, but I think the amount you get for the price is too small. The scent doesn't bother me, but it has a slight detergent-like smell. Something to note if you're sensitive to fragrances.
TipOne squeeze gives you just the right amount of 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.ProsMy skin type is oily and acne-prone, and I had a pustular blemish forming when I started using this product. After a week of use, I'm quite satisfied! My first impression was that the design is clean and the square base gives it a stable feel. When actually using it, the pump stays firmly in place without wobbling. The formula is a clear, thin, transparent liquid. One pump wasn't quite enough for my evening cleanse, so I used about one and a half to two pumps, but one pump was sufficient for my morning routine. The cleansing effectiveness was a bit lacking for removing makeup, but since I rarely wear makeup these days due to masks, it wasn't a big issue for me. After cleansing, there was less tightness compared to other regular products, with a nice squeaky-clean feeling. My skin felt moisturized and soft. After a week of use, I feel it's effective for blemishes. The pustular blemish that was forming before I started using this product went away without coming to a head. My skin texture also seems more refined, and overall, this product works well for me.
ConsThe downside is that you need to use more product than expected for each cleanse. Also, the scent might be polarizing - I personally disliked it. It reminded me of dish soap, but that's just my opinion.
TipI think this would be great for morning cleansing, but for evening cleansing, I'd recommend double cleansing.
