I'll get straight to the point about what I liked while using this product! - The texture is as soft as whipped cream, creating a rich and abundant lather! This makes it gentle and less irritating when massaging, which I really appreciated. - I was also very impressed with its cleansing effectiveness. Compared to my usual cleanser that doesn't lather well and has weak cleansing power, this one left my skin feeling squeaky clean! I always do a two-step cleanse with oil first, then foam, and I loved how this cleanser thoroughly removed any remaining oiliness from the first step. - The scent is lovely! Some products can have strange fragrances, but this one has a fresh and light scent that somehow lifts my mood. - I'm not sure if it's just my imagination, but since I started using this, the blackheads on my nose have noticeably faded. Given how many blackheads I had, I'm honestly thrilled. I can't say for certain if it's solely due to this product, but I plan to keep using it for another month to check on my blackhead situation. If they continue to improve, I'll finally settle on this product after years of being a foam cleanser nomad!
ConsWhen I first received and used this, my skin was very itchy, dry, irritated, and sensitive. Because of that, I initially found it stinging and itchy, and considered stopping use. However, I continued using it to write this review, and after about two or three uses, it became fine. I think this product might not suit those with more sensitive skin than mine. Apart from this point, I found it to be a very decent product, or rather, it was quite good for me!
TipPersonally, I recommend using this with a cleansing oil! Previously, no amount of cleansing oil could get rid of my blackheads, but as I mentioned above, using this product together with cleansing oil has significantly faded them. While this is just my personal experience, if blackheads are a concern for you, it might be worth giving this a try!

Skin type: Currently, I have combination dehydrated skin that's sensitive. Previously, I over-cleansed trying to eliminate oiliness and blackheads, which left my skin feeling tight like dry skin. However, it's much improved now. I don't get blemishes often, but they appear quickly if a product doesn't suit me! Positive ingredients for me seem to be tea tree, centella asiatica, and hyaluronic acid. I use them all in moderation. I occasionally incorporate brightening products! I avoid shea butter, citric acid, and pore-clogging ingredients (like acids). These tend to cause milia or inflammatory acne for me. Remember, this is just my personal experience, so please use your judgment when purchasing! Application: 4/5 It's tricky to rate the application of a foam cleanser, but initially, it's too thick if you don't add enough water. Despite expectations of easy lathering due to its cream texture, I was disappointed at first. Now I've got the hang of it and can create plenty of foam with just a small amount. Check the photo for the right amount. Scent: 5/5 The herbal scent might be divisive. I personally find it healing, but if you dislike leafy or herbal scents, you might not enjoy it. The scent doesn't linger after rinsing! Hydration: 5/5 Surprisingly, while it leaves the skin surface feeling very dry, there's minimal deep dryness. This sensation is unique for a foam cleanser. Even my extremely dry-skinned mother noticed this, which seems to be a clear advantage over other oil-removing products. Oil Control: 5/5 As mentioned in the hydration section, it controls oil very well. It thoroughly removes oiliness and leaves skin feeling powdery, which could be perfect for very oily, acne-prone skin. I've recommended this to friends who dislike low pH products due to oiliness but struggle with damaged skin barriers from harsh oil-stripping cleansers. Skin Texture: 4/5 While it doesn't seem to improve texture, it definitely has a brightening effect! My mother was particularly satisfied with this aspect. Blemishes: 3/5 It didn't cause blemishes, but when my skin was in poor condition or after long hours of wearing makeup and a mask, my skin still felt itchy after washing with this. I was worried something might develop, but it didn't! Ingredients: 3/5 It's vegan and contains centella asiatica, but there are more less-than-ideal ingredients than expected, which is disappointing. It doesn't feel harsh when using, but it's still a concern. Packaging & Price: 4/5 The thick consistency makes the tube prone to creasing, requiring firm pressure to dispense. Otherwise, the price is reasonable! Initially, I used too much because it didn't lather well, but using more water or a manual foam maker allows for using less product. The price is 16,000 won for 150ml, but it's often on sale on the official website for around 10,000 won.
Cons❗Ingredients (caution for oily & sensitive skin) ❗Occasional facial itching ❗Requires time to perfect lathering technique...
TipMy tips: 1. Use the amount shown in the photo with plenty of water to create foam. 2. A foam maker works well. Recommended for: Those with very oily skin who want to use a low pH cleanser but find their face too oily, and those with sensitive skin who struggle to find a suitable foam cleanser. If you're curious about other products I use or my full routine, let me know! I've changed not just my cosmetics but also my cleansing method and entire routine.
