There's clearly a reason for its high ranking! It's perfect for those like me with oily skin. While oils can leave a residual feeling, this water leaves my skin feeling pristine.
ConsSo far, I haven't found any drawbacks. As the weather gets warmer, this product seems even more essential.
TipI've been using it with the included foaming container. Even those with dry skin would likely be satisfied with this product.

Even when I think I've removed all my makeup, using this product reveals residue, which makes me trust its cleansing power. I also love that it comes with a foam dispenser, allowing me to use the cleansing water as a foam.
ConsAfter use, there's a slight warming sensation, but it doesn't irritate my eyes or cause any blemishes, so it's fine.

I had a go-to product, but after using it for a long time, I wanted to try something new. That's when I discovered Anua Cleansing Water. My selection criteria were: 1. Is it formulated with ingredients that are gentle on the skin? 2. Does it effectively fulfill its role as a cleanser? 3. Can it be used daily without negatively impacting the skin? I typically double cleanse when wearing makeup, and this worked well as a first cleanser. I experienced no blemishes while using it. Among the cleansing waters I've tried, this one leaves the skin feeling more hydrated, which I appreciate. Note: I don't use cleansing water to remove eye makeup. I use a separate lip and eye makeup remover for that.
ConsGiven the nature of cleansing waters, you tend to use them generously, so they run out quickly. This makes you consider the value for money. If the discount isn't significant, it can feel a bit pricey.
TipUsing it with a foaming dispenser can reduce skin irritation. If you have super sensitive skin, I recommend trying this method. I personally cleanse this way. I used to apply it with cotton pads, but this current method is much less irritating to my skin and saves on cotton pads too. You can find detailed instructions on YouTube. Watching a video might be easier to understand than reading about it. Search for 'cleansing water foamer' I bought a special set, which I thought was quite thoughtfully put together: 500ml full-size product + 100ml travel-size + foaming dispenser

This product leaves my skin feeling wonderfully hydrated after use. It removes all makeup effectively, except for eyeliner. For sensitive skin like mine that tends to get tight or red, this cleanser is exceptionally gentle yet thorough. It's perfect for those who prefer using a separate eye makeup remover.
ConsTo be honest, there's not much to complain about. The quantity is generous, and it's the most affordable option on Hwahae. The only downside is that it's challenging for cleansing waters to stand out among different brands.
TipFor best results, saturate a cotton pad generously and gently press it against your skin for about 10 seconds before wiping. This method ensures a softer and more effective cleanse.

Upon opening the lid, I noticed a subtle, natural scent of Houttuynia cordata that wasn't overpowering at all. The formula is incredibly lightweight and clear, like a water-based cleanser. When applied to the face with a cotton pad, it felt exceptionally gentle on the skin. I was most satisfied with how it cleansed without causing any irritation, and it effectively removed makeup without the need for excessive rubbing. The cleansing power exceeded my expectations. Despite being a water-based formula, it efficiently removed sunscreen, base makeup, and even light color cosmetics. While I did use a separate remover for waterproof products like mascara and eyeliner, it was really convenient that I could remove all my base makeup in one go without multiple steps. What's more, despite being a cleansing water, my skin didn't feel tight at all after use. In fact, it left my skin feeling so moisturized that I didn't need to rush to apply skincare afterward. Being a low pH product, it seemed to balance my skin, and I could use it without any irritation. One of the biggest advantages of this product is its ingredients. With 87% Houttuynia cordata extract, the soothing effect was definitely noticeable. I'm prone to blemishes, but my skin felt comfortable even while removing makeup. After using it for several days in a row, I noticed a significant reduction in redness, and irritation-induced blemishes visibly decreased.
Cons1. A separate remover is needed for heavy waterproof makeup 2. The Houttuynia cordata scent might not appeal to everyone 3. The necessity of using cotton pads might be slightly inconvenient for some

I switched from the B.plain Mung Bean Cleansing Water to this one, and I found that both products left my skin feeling moisturized rather than dry after cleansing. However, the Anua Houttuynia Cordata Cleanser stood out because it felt smoother and gentler when applied to the skin with a cotton pad. I also tried foaming up this water cleanser with the included bubble maker, which was a first for me. I was initially worried that cleansing with just a pad might not be thorough enough, but following up with the water foam made me feel like I was getting an even deeper clean, which I really liked! When I first received the product, the cap was broken, but they quickly exchanged it for me, so I've been using it happily since then.
ConsWhen using the foam around the eye area, it can quickly get into your eyes and cause a stinging sensation, so I'd recommend only using the pad method for cleansing around the eyes. While the price is relatively affordable, I find myself using quite a lot of product when doing the double cleanse with the bubble maker, so I think I'll go through it pretty quickly!

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.ProsSkin type: I have sensitive skin that tends to develop blemishes and a compromised skin barrier when using cleansing oils or balms. I bought this after hearing it works well when used with a foaming dispenser. I've been a cleansing water nomad since another brand's micellar water didn't suit me. It's definitely non-irritating and removes makeup effectively! My skin barrier hasn't been compromised, and I haven't experienced any breakouts since using this product. As someone with super sensitive skin, I'm satisfied as long as my face doesn't react negatively.
ConsI bought this based on a YouTuber's recommendation, who claimed it could remove mascara too, but it didn't work for mascara removal. Its cleansing effectiveness isn't very high, so I wouldn't recommend it for heavy makeup. Although I got it at a good price through the Hwahae app, it seems a bit expensive compared to other cleansing waters, possibly due to the houttuynia cordata extract.
TipIf cleansing oils and balms don't work for you, and you have sensitive skin, try using this cleansing water with a foaming dispenser!

It cleanses gently and effectively without leaving any residue. The pump bottle is perfect for creating a quick lather for an easy face wash.
ConsThe large size of the container can be a bit cumbersome to use due to the generous amount of product.

ConsWhile it removes most mascaras and eyeliners, it struggles with Etude House's Curl Fix mascara...

It removes both eye and face makeup completely. With my previous cleanser, I'd often get blemishes even after thorough cleansing, but since using this, the frequency of breakouts has decreased. What's great is that even if I walk around for a bit after cleansing with this, my skin doesn't feel tight. I really appreciate that. Gentle Formula: I'm prone to acne and have sensitive skin, but this feels incredibly gentle. Some cleansing waters can sting, but this one doesn't at all! It's the epitome of a mild cleansing water... Volume: Cleansing waters tend to run out quickly, so a large size is ideal. This one comes in a big bottle, and buying it on Hwahae made it even more affordable! Scent: There's a subtle coconut-like scent. I can't pinpoint it exactly, but I like that it doesn't smell artificial. Will I repurchase: Absolutely!
ConsI couldn't find any downsides while using it... It's truly excellent!
TipOn days when you wear heavy makeup, it's best to cleanse twice for thorough removal!
