Pros

I've lost count of how many bottles I've gone through of this cleanser... It's absolutely perfect for combination dehydrated skin! I used to think that squeaky clean feeling was good for my skin type, but those days are behind me. As time went on, my skin became drier and more sensitive, so I switched to this cleansing gel. My skin feels so much healthier now! It's great for morning cleansing without any deep dryness, and for evening routines, I use cleansing wipes for my eyes and lips, then double cleanse with this. First, I use the gel to wipe, then lather it up for a thorough cleanse - it works like a charm! My friends who've tried it when visiting have all fallen in love and bought their own. Please keep this product available forever!

Cons

I was a bit disappointed with the small size before, but now I'm thrilled they've come out with a 200ml version!

Pros

First off, the finish is great, and the scent is lovely. My face doesn't feel tight after use! I even use it as a first-step cleanser when I've only applied sunscreen.

Cons

The price is a bit on the steep side, which is a shame. But I'm so happy it's available on Hwahae!

Pros

I used this as a morning cleanser, and it's fantastic! Its pH is similar to skin, helping balance and maintain skin health. After cleansing, there's minimal tightness, and it provides a gentle yet effective cleanse.

Cons

While the pump bottle design prevents leaks during travel, I personally think it would have been even better if it dispensed foam. Keep in mind that it might not be strong enough for removing heavy makeup, so I recommend using it as a morning cleanser.

Tip

I highly recommend this for those looking for a light morning cleanse, people with super sensitive skin in need of a gentle cleanser, and those with dry or combination dehydrated skin who experience tightness after washing their face.

Pros

I really appreciated the texture of this product - it's not too runny or too thick, which is perfect for a cleanser. Some oil, milk, or water-based cleansers can be messy to apply, and super thick cleansing creams might be a bit harsh for someone like me who tends to scrub vigorously when removing makeup. This one hits the sweet spot! Plus, adding a bit of water enhances its cleansing effectiveness, which is a great bonus.

Cons

When it comes to cleansing, it should really do its job well. To be honest, on days when I'm wearing a full face of makeup, it doesn't quite give me that squeaky clean feeling. But then again, most cleansers are like that, so I'm planning to use this as part of a double cleansing routine and be satisfied with that.

Pros

I prefer moisturizing cleansers, and this one caught my eye. The texture looked hydrating, and the product name suggested it balances pH, so I had high hopes when I tried it. The texture was more fluid than a gel, more of a water-like consistency. I typically favor this type of gel cleanser, and sure enough, it suited me well! What I loved most was how it left my skin feeling hydrated and not tight after cleansing. A single pump is enough for a thorough cleanse, so I expect this bottle to last quite a while.

Cons

The packaging design is slightly disappointing. It feels a bit outdated, you know? While the container itself is fine, the logo design and lotus motif could use some work. Interestingly, the box design is actually decent, but I wish the bottle itself was more sophisticated. That's really my only gripe with it.

Tip

For those with oily skin like mine, you might think you need a cleanser that leaves your skin feeling tight and squeaky clean. But did you know that can actually trigger more oil production? Try using a pH-balancing cleanser that leaves your skin feeling moisturized instead. You'll notice a difference the very next day!

Pros

When it comes to cleansers, effectiveness is key, and I'm happy to report that during my review period, I experienced no blemishes or skin discomfort. After washing, my skin felt plump without any deep dryness - a rare feat! It left my complexion feeling moisturized yet soft. The scent reminded me of citrus, like tangerines. I also appreciated the rotatable nozzle that allows for easy pumping and can be locked to prevent leaks when not in use or while traveling.

Cons

There's nothing to complain about! If I had to nitpick, I'd say it's a shame that I used it up so quickly and will need to repurchase soon... but that's hardly a real issue!

Tip

The cleanser has a rich, serum-like texture. I found that working it into a lather and washing thoroughly meant that even a single pump was enough for a deep cleanse!

Pros

This cleanser is moisturizing and gentle! It's packed with extracts from Jeju's pristine environment, including lotus leaf, aloe, green tea, rice, tangerine peel, rosemary, lotus root, and prickly pear. The ingredient list is quite impressive overall. What's unique is its 2-in-1 function as both a cleansing gel and foam cleanser. I absolutely love the soft, hydrating gel-cream texture that produces fine, dense bubbles. As a low pH cleanser, it doesn't give that squeaky-clean feeling, but instead leaves your skin feeling smooth and hydrated. While it's not powerful enough to remove all makeup in one go, it's surprisingly effective for a gentle cleanser - you can easily remove sunscreen with just one wash. The best part? After cleansing, my skin feels purified and looks noticeably clearer.

Cons

Considering the price, I wish it came in a slightly larger size. A 200ml bottle would be ideal.

Pros

✔️Gentle on the skin. I have thin, sensitive skin, but I used this without any irritation. ✔️Good cleansing power despite being mildly acidic. It didn't remove mascara and eyeliner well (use an eye makeup remover for those), but it effectively cleansed cushion foundation and sunscreen. Recommended for light makeup removal or as a first cleanse. ✔️Moisturizing after cleansing. No tightness, and it stayed hydrating over time. I didn't experience any deep dryness. My skin felt soft and smooth, probably due to the lasting hydration. ✔️Adequate to rich foam. Some mildly acidic cleansers can feel unsatisfying due to lack of foam, but this one lathers well, making cleansing enjoyable. ✔️Gel-foam hybrid texture, like a runny gel. Not too thin or too thick. It allowed for a gentle, pleasant massage. ✔️Convenient and clean pump dispenser. The open/close mechanism is an added bonus.

Cons

✔️Fragrance: Those who prefer unscented products or are sensitive to fragrances might find it a bit strong. ✔️Ingredients: It's disappointing that it contains many ingredients and potentially irritating fragrances.

Tip

✔️If you're sensitive to fragrances or fragrance ingredients, I'd recommend trying a different mildly acidic cleanser.

Pros

The biggest advantages of this product are its gentleness and its 2-in-1 functionality. Even with effective cleansing products, my skin often feels itchy and dry after use, but this one doesn't leave my skin feeling dehydrated, and it doesn't cause any blemishes. While those who prefer a squeaky-clean feeling might have mixed opinions, for me, with my dry skin, especially in this chilly weather, the texture is just perfect. The cleansing effectiveness is quite good, and I also appreciate that the container allows you to easily see how much product you've used.

Cons

However, personally, I wasn't a fan of the fragrance.

Tip

It feels a bit pricey, so it might be best to purchase it during a sale.
