It's perfect when you don't want that slippery residue or that overly squeaky-clean feeling. I've heard that anionic surfactants in low pH cleansers can be worse for your skin than slightly alkaline ones if they're left behind, but this one doesn't leave any noticeable residue, which I love! The Physiogel AC Foam was my favorite.
ConsUsing it continuously made my skin feel rough, and even my husband's skin turned red. I stopped and went back to La Mer's cleansing gel. For slightly alkaline cleansers, Physiogel AC seems to be better.
TipEven when using a mildly alkaline cleanser, our skin has a neutralizing function that brings it back to a slightly acidic state. The notion that low pH equals gentle and mildly alkaline equals irritating isn't always accurate. These days, low pH cleansers are formulated for effective cleansing and may contain anionic surfactants or potentially allergenic ingredients. They might also include moisturizing components that could ironically irritate allergy-prone skin. Each low pH cleanser is different - Zeroid's cleansing gel worked well for me. It's important to cleanse thoroughly at least once a day, so using it for about 40 seconds in the evening can help manage sebum production.

However, it doesn't give that squeaky-clean feeling.
ConsI have sensitive skin, and unfortunately, this seems to be too harsh for me. After cleansing, the area around my cheeks becomes red and irritated.

ConsAvoid if you have oily, sensitive skin. My skin reacted badly after using this. It was the only change in my routine, and it caused a breakout. I noticed it contains ingredients that can clog pores for oily skin

The cleansing effectiveness seems great too.
ConsMy skin feels extremely dry after use! I'm not sure if it's the stearic acid, but tiny blemishes appeared, so I'm discontinuing use. I used to do oil cleansing + foam cleansing, but now I'm only using oil cleanser without this product. (I use soap in the morning)
TipMake sure to moisturize immediately after cleansing

While I'm not sure if this is an alkaline cleanser, it cleanses as thoroughly as one! Even those with dry skin might benefit from alternating between alkaline or BHA-containing products and low pH cleansers. With masks causing humidity and increased sebum production, proper cleansing has become crucial!
Cons*The thorough cleansing can leave skin feeling slightly tight As expected from a deep cleansing product, it can be a bit drying. Although it contains glycerin, it may not be suitable for daily use by those with very dry skin! *Cleans well but caused blemishes Unfortunately, it caused blemishes for me... I'm not sure which ingredient is responsible...

Gentle on skin I experienced no irritation at all while cleansing. This might be expected from a cleansing foam, but it's still worth noting. 2. Cleansing effectiveness It removes light makeup and sunscreen effectively, but for full makeup, it's not ideal to use alone. I'd recommend using a makeup remover for color cosmetics first, then using this foam cleanser for base makeup and other light products. 3. Deep dryness Unlike other cleansing foams, I didn't feel significant dryness after use. However, it wasn't particularly hydrating either. 4. Scent I don't have a particularly sensitive nose, but I noticed this product has almost no scent.
Cons1. Lather No matter how much I rubbed, I couldn't get a rich lather. You might need to use a separate tool to create more foam. 2. Blemishes I'm not sure if it's because of this product, but I started getting a few blemishes on my cheeks after using it.

For this price, the amount you get is fantastic value for money! I wear makeup daily, so I usually start with an oil cleanser followed by a foam cleanser. With this routine, I found the cleansing effectiveness to be really good! At first, it feels like thick whipped cream, but as you keep massaging it, it turns into a soft lather. It's incredibly gentle on the skin! While I haven't used it for a long time, I haven't experienced any blemishes during my use so far!
ConsThe cold weather might be partly to blame, but like others have mentioned, my skin feels extremely tight after cleansing. If I don't immediately apply my skincare, my face feels incredibly dry. On the first day of use, I felt a slight burning sensation on my face! If you have super sensitive skin, you might want to be a bit careful with this one.
