The small amount produces a lot of lather, and most importantly, it is gentle on the skin and leaves my skin looking clear after cleansing. It finishes without feeling greasy, and my skin doesn't feel tight, so it's the perfect product for dry skin. My skin looks brighter, and I haven't had any breakouts, so I also use it as a body wash, lathering it up with a shower puff. My body feels incredibly soft and not at all tight.
ConsThis type is easily dehydrated, so it needs to be dried thoroughly.

The foam is so rich and creamy, it feels like it's devouring all the impurities. My skin texture has noticeably enhanced, and there's hardly any dryness after use, which I absolutely love. It also removes dead skin cells from your face - I was surprised to discover how much there actually was! I only realized this after using the Black Sugar Scrub. It's absolutely fantastic!
ConsThe price is quite a burden - it's too expensive, unfortunately. Also, the cleansing process takes quite a bit of time, which I found a bit disappointing.

Cons- The black color makes the soap dish get dirty too easily. It's difficult to keep clean! I really liked the product, but this one drawback was significant enough for me to deduct one star.

When lathered, it produces a nice foam. What I'm most satisfied with is that there's no feeling of tightness after cleansing.
ConsIt might seem expensive if you think of it as just soap. However, as someone with super sensitive skin, I've found that using Cosme Chef products has significantly calmed my skin, so it's worth every penny.

I stumbled upon this product on TV and decided to give it a try. Being soap-like, it's perfect for someone lazy like me - easy to use and satisfying. The fact that it cleanses with essence rather than foam is quite appealing. Best of all, there's no skin tightness after use, which I really appreciate.
ConsWhile it's not a major concern, the product does have its own unique scent.
TipDue to its nature, the product becomes softer with use. Before using, I recommend wetting your hands and gently kneading it like you would with rice cakes. This makes it easier to handle.

It doesn't dissolve as quickly as I thought, which is great. I expected it to turn mushy after one use, but it's not that extreme - it lathers up just right. When you rub it in your hands, it feels like you're applying a face mask. It's like cleansing with a mask! The black foam is a nice visual indicator of where you might have missed spots. I thought I'd cleansed thoroughly as usual, but when I looked in the mirror, there was still some black foam near my nose. It made me realize I might have been leaving soap residue behind before. There's no irritation to the skin, but it leaves you feeling refreshed after washing - it's wonderful! It's like peeling off a nose strip from your whole face. Some say the price is a bit steep, but I'd be willing to buy it again for another try! Looking forward to using it more!
ConsThe black residue it leaves around after use... You'll have to accept that your soap dish might get a bit messy.

My skin type is combination dehydrated, with oily areas around my T-zone by afternoon. To use, I wet my face thoroughly, then dampen the black sugar solid pack soap and roll it in my hands to create a sticky lather. I apply this foam to my face and massage for about 60 seconds before rinsing. It's truly amazing! My skin feels incredibly clean and refreshed. There's a slight tightness, but it's not too bad if you follow up with a mist or toner for hydration. They say it's slow-cooked like a medicinal plaster, and it does have an herbal scent, but I didn't find it off-putting.
ConsI was expecting a tube-type pack, so I was surprised by the soap format. I'm currently keeping it on a soap dish in the bathroom, but I'm a bit concerned about bacteria and contamination when I use it. Some people apparently cut off small pieces to use or mold it into a paste-like consistency before application. That's probably the best way to use it, which is a bit disappointing for me.
TipHere's a pro tip: While I use this solid pack daily, when I want a deep cleanse, I first use a steamed towel on my nose and chin areas to open up the pores. Then I apply the solid pack and massage it in, paying extra attention to problem areas like the nose, chin, and between the brows. I use a silicone brush (or electric cleansing device) on these areas for an even deeper cleansing sensation. It works wonders!

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 had high hopes for this product due to its great ingredients and online reviews. While it's recommended to soak it in warm water for 10 minutes to create a gel-like texture, I used it with cool water to prevent it from dissolving too quickly. The lather is incredible - it foams up like a foam cleanser without needing any tools. I used it as a second cleanse after oil cleansing, and it left my skin squeaky clean. Even after using oil, it removed everything so thoroughly that it felt like I had just had an exfoliating treatment. My skin felt immaculately cleansed, with no residue left behind. With continued use, my complexion has become clearer, and I've noticed a reduction in blackheads. It truly gives that 'just had a facial' feeling.
ConsThe powerful cleansing ability is both a pro and a con. As someone with thin skin who had recently exfoliated, I found it quite irritating. Despite only massaging for about 5 minutes (instead of the recommended 10), my face turned red. It's so intense that I think I can only use it once every 1-2 weeks. Unfortunately, I couldn't test it further before the review deadline. Other reviews praise its exfoliating power, and I was planning to try it again over the weekend, but that's not possible now. I generally avoid frequent exfoliation due to its harsh nature. Update: I realized I was too rough when applying it. When used gently, it's much better. However, the price is quite steep, which is a downside.
TipA soap dish is essential as the product softens easily. It might be particularly beneficial for those with oily skin. However, it's important not to use it too frequently to avoid potential skin damage. Update: I realized today that I had been using it incorrectly. It's not a soap, but a solid mask. Instead of scrubbing vigorously for a thorough cleanse, I applied the lather gently and massaged softly. This method caused no irritation and worked wonderfully. I even noticed some blackheads on my nose clearing up.

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.ProsFirst off, the positives: It's surprisingly firm and doesn't soften easily, which is great. Storage is a breeze - just pop it in a soap dispenser and keep it dry, and it stays pristine! The feel is gentle, and it lathers up nicely. When applied to the skin, it has a rich, thick texture that's perfect for massaging. It seems to be non-irritating, and even with my super sensitive skin, I didn't experience any redness. Right after use, my skin felt refreshed, hydrated, and without any tightness. After using it for a few days, it seemed to care for dead skin cells, making my makeup apply more smoothly. My complexion appeared a bit clearer, and I even saw improvements with my small blemishes. I think it'll only get better with continued use.
ConsSome might find it inconvenient that you use it like a bar soap rather than scooping it out. Personally, I didn't find any drawbacks or inconveniences. While it may not deliver dramatic results, I think it's a great product for consistent skincare management.
TipI've seen many reviews mentioning using it with a brush. While a brush might be fine for cleansing, this product already has good cleansing effectiveness. For super sensitive skin, I wouldn't recommend a brush as it might disrupt the skin barrier balance. Although it's a cleansing mask, it feels more like a mask than a soap. I think it's too precious to use solely for cleansing. I suggest gently massaging it with light pressure - this way, you can benefit from its effective ingredients, improve your complexion, and create a synergistic effect. If you do use a brush, I'd recommend doing so after massaging. It might be best to finish with the brush only on areas where you're concerned about excess oil.

I liked that it wasn't too slippery when rinsing off. Honestly, I was worried it might smell like herbal medicine, but it was nearly fragrance-free. It felt like it was made with skin-friendly ingredients that aren't irritating. The overall impression was that it's a highly concentrated formula that's good for the skin.
ConsWhile it's nearly fragrance-free, there was a slightly off-putting scent. This might be a personal preference, but it was noticeable to me. The soap is quite soft, so after use, a considerable amount dissolved in the soap dish, leaving a puddle. I couldn't throw it away the next day, so I had to use it again. I didn't get a strong sense of dead skin cells being removed or my skin becoming noticeably clearer. The blackheads on my nose remained unchanged, and I didn't feel like my pores were shrinking. However, since it's supplying concentrated, skin-friendly ingredients, I have hope that long-term use might be beneficial.
TipStore in a well-ventilated area. For more effective exfoliation, try lathering the soap on a soft cotton gauze and gently massaging your face before rinsing.
