It's not irritating and is gentle when I use it morning and night. It's really moisturizing and my sister has combination skin, but it works very well for her.
ConsBut even after rinsing it all off with a mild cleanser, it still feels slippery... Those who dislike this probably won't like it.
TipRinsing it around 30 times or so should be fine ^>^

First, the cleansing power is average. If you like a squeaky-clean feeling, this is definitely not it. It leaves a very slippery, smooth feeling which is a bit disappointing. However, it would be good for those with dry skin.
ConsI'm still slippery and not looking good! I wonder if I should wash off the oil that's stuck on me in the morning? The mild feeling is good, but I'm not sure if it's really improving. I wouldn't recommend it for acne and oily skin types!

It doesn't feel like the cleansing power is weak, and if you lather it up well with wet hands, the foam forms nicely.
ConsWhile using it, I didn't experience any worsening of acne, and it felt gentle without any irritation. It leaves the skin feeling moisturized without tightness, and it feels like the skin is thoroughly cleansed. However, there may be a slippery, non-squeaky clean feeling, and the fragrance may be divisive, so these are things to be aware of.
TipIt seems to remove eye and face makeup well, so it can be used for a light cleansing routine.

It's not that the slightly acidic formula lacks moisturizing power or cleansing ability, but it does remove some oil and leaves a moisturized finish, which I like! My periodic chin acne that has been coming and going for years seems to be subsiding with this product. My chin acne has faded, and since this is the only product I've changed, I plan to continue using it consistently even if I repurchase it.
ConsIt doesn't have a squeaky-clean or strongly cleansing feel, but rather a slippery finish, which some may dislike. The cleansing power is a bit lacking for removing makeup, so I mainly use it in the mornings.

However, this past summer was incredibly hot, which made my skin even drier and increased oil production. I tried changing my moisturizer and using face masks, but the oiliness persisted, so I wanted to try a different cleansing foam. That's when I was selected as a Hwahae Trial Reviewer. The gel cleanser felt quite slippery after cleansing, and I wondered if I wasn't cleansing properly. But I think it's just a difference in the formula compared to other foams. After the first cleanse, there was no dryness, but I didn't notice a significant reduction in oil the next day. From the next day on, I used my regular cleansing foam, followed by the Belphrimo as a second cleanse. This helped remove the oil, and my skin felt softer. The existing cleansing foam alone couldn't get rid of the oil, so I felt that Belphrimo was helpful. The fragrance is similar to fruit, but it's not overpowering when applied to the face - it has a subtle, diffused scent.
ConsWhen using this product alone, it feels slippery after cleansing, so I'm not sure if I'm properly cleansing my face.

I'm not sure if the design matches the 'Antique' concept of this product perfectly, but it's still an interesting and eye-catching appearance. ☑️ Lather: 🩵🩵🩵🩵🩵 (5/5) It can be quite challenging to find a gel cleanser that produces a rich and abundant lather. However, the Belphrimo Antique Gel Cleanser creates a smooth and voluminous lather with just a small amount. To get the best lather, it's better to gently rub your hands in a circular motion rather than just vigorously rubbing back and forth. ☑️ Cleansing Power: 🩵🩵🩵🩵🩵 (5/5) At the end of the day, the most important factor for a foam cleanser is its cleansing ability. Based on my accumulated data and experience, I had a small bias that mild, pH-balanced products may not have strong cleansing power. But with this Antique Gel Cleanser, the rich lather thoroughly and gently cleanses the face, leaving it feeling refreshed and clean. The cleansing performance was very satisfactory.
Cons☑️ Finish: 🩵🩵🩵🩵⚫️ (4/5) This is purely a personal preference, but I prefer a slightly squeaky-clean feeling after cleansing. The Belphrimo Antique Gel Cleanser leaves a slightly slippery (?) finish. If you enjoy a more moisturized, non-stripping feel after cleansing, this might be a perfect match for you. But for me, it felt like my face wasn't quite as thoroughly cleansed. However, I think this would still work well as a morning cleanser.
TipLather the product with a small amount of water, gently rubbing your hands in a circular motion to create a rich, voluminous lather!

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.Pros♡Product Name: Belprimeau Antique Gel Cleanser ♡Fragrance: As I'm not very sensitive to fragrances, I didn't notice any scent when cleansing my face. But when I intentionally smelled the product, it had a subtle, refreshing citrus aroma. ♡Texture: It has a gel-type consistency that is neither too thin nor too thick. When I placed it on my palm and lifted my hand, it didn't immediately run off (see photo!). ♡Usage Experience: The product doesn't create an abundance of lather when rubbed, but it's not uncomfortable during cleansing. When applied to the face, it glides smoothly across the surface rather than clinging tightly. This means there is no irritation even when scrubbing vigorously. Rinsing it off leaves a moisturized, slightly slippery feeling, rather than a squeaky-clean sensation. This may be a matter of personal preference, but the benefit is that the skin feels soft and hydrated after cleansing. ♡Cleansing Power: Although the initial impression was that the product might not cleanse thoroughly due to the moisturizing sensation, it effectively removed my eyeliner when tested. Strong makeup removers may require a second cleanse, but it seems sufficient for light base makeup and eyeshadow. ♡Ingredients: Out of 25 total ingredients, there is 1 high-risk ingredient (fragrance) and 2 allergy-causing ingredients. The remaining 22 ingredients are generally beneficial for both oily and dry skin types. There is 1 potentially irritating ingredient for sensitive skin, but I personally did not experience any discomfort or irritation. ♡Recommendation: Given the hydrating finish, this product is recommended for dry skin types. As it is formulated for acne-prone skin, it would also be suitable for those with blemish-prone complexions. ♡The product contains ingredients that are 99% effective against 3 types of acne-causing bacteria. As someone with acne-prone skin, I did experience a soothing effect when using this product.
ConsThis product may not be suitable for those who prefer a velvety finish. When rinsed with water, there is a slightly slick residual feeling (?) left behind. Additionally, when dispensing the product, no matter how firmly you squeeze, it comes out slowly and bit by bit, which can be frustrating.
TipI love the dewy finish, but I was a bit concerned about the residual feeling, so I wipe off the cleansing oil after cleansing. By doing this, I don't have to worry about the residual feeling, and the moisturized feeling is maintained, which is great!

So while I was able to confirm the effectiveness in managing breakouts, my skin is on the more sensitive side, and products that don't match well can really upset my skin. But I didn't experience any of those issues with this product! The gel cleanser also foams up nicely, and I didn't find any major irritants like fragrance.
ConsThe cleansing power doesn't completely remove color cosmetics, but since double cleansing is a must for me, this wasn't a major issue. This aspect can be both a pro and a con depending on skin type - it may not be ideal for those who prefer a more thorough, squeaky-clean cleanse, but could work well for drier skin types. While I've used gel cleansers before and the slip didn't bother me, those who really enjoy a deep-cleaning, non-greasy feel may not appreciate the residual slip left behind. For my skin, this cleanser worked better for morning cleansing than evening cleansing.
TipRecommended for dry skin types or during seasonal changes/winter as a morning cleanser!

I had been using natural soap for quite a while, but since this cleanser was recommended for acne, I decided to try it out through the Hwahae Trial Reviewer program. 1. Lather: When I squeezed out a generous amount, the lather wasn't as disappointing as with foam cleansers. The lather was quite dense and fine-textured, though not as voluminous as some. 2. Cleansing: It could be described as leaving a slightly slippery feeling, which is a common characteristic of gel cleansers. 3. Fragrance: The fragrance was mild and pleasant. 4. Irritation: There was hardly any irritation felt. 5. Anti-Acne Effect: Since I started using it when I didn't have any active breakouts, it's hard to assess the effectiveness. However, a few days before writing this review, I started developing some cystic acne due to overwork, so I'll have to use it more to see the results.
ConsThere wasn't really any major downside. The slightly slippery feeling is just a typical characteristic of gel cleansers.

My face feels hydrated even after cleansing. 🩶Acne Reduction (Reduced Oil Secretion) The acne scars around my mouth and the few pimples on my cheeks have significantly calmed down! As a heavily oily-skinned person, my face doesn't feel as greasy anymore, which is great.
Cons💔Cleansing Power I'm not sure if this is a characteristic of gel cleansers, but: 1. Requires Multiple Rinses It's very slippery, and I have to rinse it off several times. When I intentionally didn't rinse it off completely and applied my skincare, I still got some foaming on my face. I have to make sure to rinse it thoroughly to remove any residue. 2. Blackheads and Whiteheads Remain After Cleansing With other cleansers I've used, I've always felt like my skin was more 'cleaned out' after washing. But after using this, I still see whiteheads that were previously hidden, and the blackheads are still there. 🥲Despite the great benefits of moisturizing and acne reduction, the fact that it doesn't remove oil and impurities well makes me hesitant to continue using it. It might not cleanse thoroughly enough for nighttime makeup removal, and I'm worried it won't prepare my skin well for makeup application in the morning. But I'll keep trying it and update my review further.
