I won the opportunity to participate in this review event! I've always had dry skin and was prone to small blemishes. After using this product, my face feels so much less dry! It's truly made a significant difference in soothing my skin, and the little bumps on my cheeks have disappeared! I highly recommend this for those with dry skin and those who struggle with small blemishes.
ConsFor those who prefer that tight, squeaky-clean feeling after cleansing, this product might leave you slightly disappointed. Other than that, everything else about it is great!

Cleansing effectiveness Since it's in soap form, it's not as thorough as foam cleansers. However, despite being a soap cleanser, there's absolutely no dryness afterwards! 2. Lather Using a foam net creates plenty of lather, which is great. Just wet it a little and rub - perfect! 3. Scent It has a typical tea tree scent, very similar to regular cleansing foams. I mainly used this for my morning cleanse! While it might not remove heavy makeup thoroughly, it's perfect for morning cleansing. The best part is there's no dryness after cleansing - I love that so much! Even those with dry skin can use this comfortably.
ConsThe soap does wear down quickly, and it doesn't provide deep cleansing. Apart from these two points, I liked it! Although it's a cleansing soap, it works great as a dedicated morning cleanser.

When I wash my face in the morning, it leaves my skin feeling moisturized without any tightness. I love that it comes with a magnetic soap holder, not just the soap itself.
ConsThere's absolutely nothing to complain about. I'll probably buy it with my own money when I run out.
TipWhile using a foam net creates more lather, I preferred working up the foam in my hands as the soap tends to break into smaller pieces in the net.

The scent is reminiscent of tea tree, giving off a very refreshing feel that I really enjoyed. It leaves you feeling clean and cool! It's perfect for morning cleansing or as a second cleanse after removing makeup. The cleansing effectiveness is good, and surprisingly, it doesn't leave my face feeling tight. Compared to my usual morning routine with regular soap, the Cica Green Bar definitely causes less deep dryness. It was also great for body use. Unlike some body washes that leave a residue and make me feel like I need to rinse forever, this didn't leave any such feeling, which I appreciated. Plus, it's so much better without the plastic waste! This would be an excellent choice for those new to bar cleansers.
ConsIt can be a bit soft, so using it with a soap holder might be inconvenient. Also, you need to pay attention to keeping it dry!
TipI'm using it with a soap holder I already had! You could also try hanging it on the end of a towel rack, which should work well.

I was thrilled to try a bar-type cleanser from head to toe. Here's a breakdown of my skin, scalp, and hair type: Face: Combination dehydrated, sensitive, prone to blemishes Body: Generally dry, with blemishes on back, chest, arms, and buttocks Scalp: Inflammatory issues, seborrheic (lots of dead skin cells), recently bleached and dyed so quite irritated Hair: Bleached 2.5 times + dyed (blue/silver/dark ash tones), average thickness, frizzy with dry ends Pros: 1. Thoughtful packaging: The box contains the cleansing bar, while a brown paper bag includes a foam net, metal stand, two adhesive gels, glue, instructions, and a metal pin for the soap. I was impressed by the additional items provided for convenient bathroom use. The two adhesive gels were a nice touch, considering potential repositioning needs. The overall packaging is also eco-friendly and easy to recycle. 2. Effective cleansing and hydration: When used on my face with the foam net and cleansing device, it left my skin feeling soft and hydrated rather than squeaky clean. It seemed to remove impurities while maintaining moisture balance. Even on my dry body skin, it left a soft, comfortable feeling after cleansing with a body brush. The balance between cleansing and hydration is impressive, especially for a bar product. 3. Gentle formula: As someone with sensitive skin, particularly on my scalp and face, I was pleased to find this product non-irritating. Despite my recent hair treatments leaving my scalp in a delicate state, this cleanser didn't exacerbate the situation. It kept my scalp oil-free for a day without excessive flaking or itching. My facial skin also remained hydrated, with a soothing effect on blemishes and redness.
ConsDrawbacks: 1. Not quite an all-in-one for bleached/dyed hair: Unfortunately, for my extremely processed hair, this bar alone isn't sufficient. After cleansing, my hair felt dry and tangled, like tightly bound straw. It's essential to follow up with a rinse-out treatment or leave-in conditioner after towel-drying (gently pat, don't rub!). While this may be adequate or slightly drying for normal hair, those with bleached or dyed locks will need additional products for proper care. The bar lacks the nourishment required for heavily processed hair.
TipHelpful tips: • Securing the metal stand: If you don't have an outlet in your bathroom for a hair dryer, you can pre-heat the adhesive gel on the stand with warm air before attaching it to the wall. • Inserting the metal pin into the soap: Place the sharp end of the pin in the center of the soap and press down with your thumb. It should slide in easily without much force. • Using with the foam net: You can still attach the soap to the metal stand even when it's in the foam net. Just make sure the side with the metal pin is facing the stand, and it will stick securely.

It lathers well, and I was worried it might wear down quickly, but contrary to my concerns, it's firm and doesn't get mushy. It's also gentle, and personally, I loved the refreshing scent. After using it, there was no tightness, and it rinsed off cleanly. The rich lather meant I didn't need to work up a foam separately. With other shampoos, I always had itchiness when my scalp was dry, but after using this product, that never happened, and my scalp felt nicely hydrated.
ConsFor me, there weren't any downsides, except maybe that my hair felt slightly less smooth? It's far from causing dryness though.

I don't usually wear much makeup and used this for both face cleansing and body wash! First off, the scent is right up my alley! It has a subtle herbal aroma with a slightly bitter note that's incredibly soothing. As expected from a soap, the fragrance doesn't linger too long after showering, but it leaves a pleasant scent in the bathroom. It lathers well, and while the foam felt a bit coarse and fluffy in my hands, I was pleasantly surprised by how fine and bubbly it became when applied to my face. It's not the dense, surfactant-heavy foam you might expect, but it's also not the type that quickly dissipates. I love it as a body wash because it rinses off cleanly with water, leaving no residue. It didn't irritate my back or chest blemishes, and I think the formula could be beneficial with long-term use.
ConsIt feels a bit more drying than my usual cleansing products, so I think it might be more suitable as a body wash rather than a facial cleanser for those with dry skin.

If you're not sensitive to fragrances, you should be able to use it without any issues! ✔Texture: This soap leaves your skin feeling moisturized after use, not dry! It's not recommended for those who prefer a squeaky-clean feeling. ✔Blemishes: While it didn't cause any noticeable irritation on my face or body, I didn't see significant soothing effects either. It doesn't seem particularly effective for calming blemishes. 💎Overall: I recommend this for people who dislike the drying effect of regular soaps and are looking for a moisturizing option. However, I wouldn't recommend it to those specifically seeking to soothe blemishes.
ConsIt's disappointing that it doesn't seem effective for calming blemishes. The soap also seems to soften and wear away faster than expected.

But this one wasn't as drying as I expected! In fact, when I used it on my body, it left my skin feeling pleasantly moisturized - not slippery, but just the right amount of hydration! While it was slightly drying for my face, it lathers up really well. Above all, I loved how convenient it was to use as an all-in-one product.
ConsThe scent is a mix of lemon and grass, which isn't really my favorite, so that was a bit disappointing. Also, I'm not sure if it has any soothing effects. Overall, it seems like a decent, no-frills soap that's good for everyday use!

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.ProsAs a woman in her 30s who rarely wears makeup since the mask-wearing era began, I only apply basic skincare. I don't even use foundation, BB cream, or sunscreen often, so I was hesitant to use foam cleansers or similar cleansing products. That's when I discovered Cica Green through The Hwahae Testers. I have combination dehydrated skin - oily on the surface but dry underneath. While many people found it drying, I actually found it more hydrating than other cleansing products. Usually, after cleansing with other products or soap, my skin feels tight and dry, but with Cica Green, my skin feels moisturized and supple after rinsing off the foam. It doesn't feel like I've over-cleansed; instead, my skin feels refreshed yet soft. The scent is herbal or grassy - it's quite strong at first, but becomes more appealing the more you use it. I personally like it, but it might be an acquired taste. I use it with a foam net, and it lathers well with a nice, rich texture. The blemishes I had around my chin have significantly improved.
ConsAs I mentioned earlier, the scent might be polarizing. While I enjoy it, when I recommended it to my husband, he found it unpleasant and disliked it.
