  Pros

  A gentle, hydrating cleansing foam! After use, my skin doesn't feel dry at all, but stays moisturized. Highly recommended for those with super sensitive skin, especially for morning cleansing routines.

  Cons

  This product claims to be effective for pore care, but I'm not so sure... First off, the foam isn't firm enough and feels too airy. I can't tell if it's actually cleansing well. It's slippery, so it doesn't seem to remove all the oil effectively.

  Pros

  Summary: I've been using this for my morning cleanse and it's working great! My skin profile: 1. Combination dehydrated, oily skin 2. I wear heavy makeup and double cleanse almost daily 3. I prefer products that leave my skin feeling squeaky clean without tightness What I loved: ⭐️ Skin texture - After cleansing, my skin felt wonderfully firm and supple. ⭐️ No tightness - The smooth and gentle finish left my skin feeling hydrated. Even before applying skincare, there was no tightness. ⭐️ Gel texture - This was my first time trying a gel cleanser, and I found it fascinating. Its bouncy texture doesn't run down your hand, which is great. It also doesn't drip excessively when mixed with water. ⭐️ Gentle formula - I wanted something to remove morning oiliness, and compared to stronger cleansers I've used before, this feels gentler and perfect for morning cleansing.

  Cons

  What could be improved: 🫥 Cleansing power - As someone who wears heavy makeup daily, I didn't feel like it cleaned thoroughly enough. It seems the gentler formula comes at the cost of cleansing effectiveness. 🫥 Lather - If you're looking for a rich, foamy lather, you might be disappointed. This doesn't produce much foam. 🫥 Slippery finish - The slippery finish typical of low pH cleansers made it hard to tell if I'd cleansed properly. As someone who prefers a squeaky clean feel, this wasn't ideal for me. That's why I use it for morning cleansing rather than as a second step after cleansing oil.

  Texture: It has a gel-like consistency Color: Transparent brown Scent: Looking at the color, you might expect an herbal smell, but it actually has a pleasant, subtle fragrance Lather: You need to work it well to create a good foam

  Cons

  Post-cleansing feel: Rather than a squeaky clean sensation, it leaves a slightly slippery feeling! Some might find this more hydrating, while others might feel like it hasn't cleaned thoroughly enough

  Pros

  As someone who hasn't used many gel foam cleansers, my initial impression was quite unfamiliar. There was this slick feeling that made me wonder if I had really washed everything off. Having transitioned from oily to combination dehydrated skin, this finish felt very different from the squeaky-clean sensation I was used to with regular cleansing foams. However, after using it consistently for a few days, I noticed a significant reduction in the dryness I typically experienced post-cleansing. What initially felt awkward soon transformed into a moisturizing finish. I discovered a whole new world where my skin didn't feel tight even before applying toner! Not only the texture but also the fragrance was quite intense compared to other products I've used. While it might be a matter of personal preference, I enjoyed the scent, which made the cleansing process more pleasant. Oh, and another thing that felt unusual with this gel foam was the lather! Until now, I thought a rich, voluminous foam was a given with cleansing foams. This product, however, produces fine bubbles rather than an abundant lather that fills your palm. When you add a bit of water and roll it between your palms, tiny bubbles form. When massaged onto the face with enough water, you can feel the dense, fine foam cleansing each and every pore. Thanks to the gel foam's unique slick texture and delicate lather, I found myself cleansing more meticulously than usual! While I haven't used it long enough to see noticeable improvements in my pores, the lack of irritation and the moisturizing finish have left me very satisfied. I'm eager to continue using it and can't wait to see how my pores improve after a month!

  Cons

  The only potential issue might be getting used to the initial unfamiliar slickness, which might make you want to rinse repeatedly. But once you overcome that, there shouldn't be any problems. My skin didn't experience any irritation, blemishes, or other issues.

  Pros

  My skin is sensitive and dry, with frequent blemishes on my chin and small bumps that often appear. I also have redness due to my thin skin. As someone with super sensitive skin, I've been using this for less than two weeks without any notable irritation or blemishes. It's too early to fully gauge how well it's cleaned my pores or improved my skin texture, so I'll need to add to this review after using it a bit longer. The scent is pleasant, and it lathers up nicely with rich foam. Being slightly acidic, it doesn't give that squeaky-clean feeling, and I didn't experience significant dryness after use.

  Cons

  I haven't found any downsides yet. This might be off-topic, but the foam is actually more abundant than in the photos. The bubbles disappeared as I was taking the picture. There's a slight lingering slippery feeling even after rinsing thoroughly, which seems typical for low pH cleansers. It's important to rinse well, so make sure to rinse thoroughly!

  Tip

  I keep my essence in the bathroom cabinet and apply a hyaluronic acid ampoule immediately after cleansing. It definitely seems to help combat dryness.

  Pros

  Thanks to the unique gel-foam formula, I experienced minimal tightness after cleansing. Even with my usual skincare routine, I felt a deep hydration without any inner dryness. It seems perfect for maintaining moisture balance.

  Cons

  The lather isn't particularly rich, and after rinsing, it leaves a slippery feeling rather than a squeaky-clean sensation. I typically avoid low pH cleansers because I dislike the residual feeling on my skin, so this aspect was disappointing. For the same reason, I didn't feel it had exceptional cleansing effectiveness. It seems more suitable for daily morning cleansing rather than removing makeup. One more thing! The product has a distinct scent - I think it would be even better if it came in an unscented version.

  Tip

  Using a foam net helps create a richer lather. If you prefer cleansing with abundant foam, a foam net is a must-have!

  Pros

  Texture: As a low pH cleanser, it leaves a slight slippery feeling after washing! At first, I kept trying to wipe it off, but now I'm used to it and actually like that it's not too drying. It feels great after cleansing. Skin changes: Soothing effect is top-notch!! I have very oily skin, so I haven't seen pore-minimizing effects yet and I'm not sure if I will (my super oily skin tends to have open pores no matter what I do). But my cheeks, which suddenly became sensitive a month ago for no reason, have calmed down. Even when I applied emulsion, my skin would sting, turn red, and have messy flaking dead skin cells, but this cleansing gel settled everything down from the second day of use!!! I didn't know the cause, and even La Roche-Posay's cream, known for soothing, was too stinging. I was upset and troubled, but this solved the problem and I'm so happy! I can really feel my skin is much more comfortable!!!! It's seriously amazing. Scent: It has a pleasant, clean fragrance. Not too strong :) Texture: Quite sticky, not thin. I decanted it into a travel bottle to take abroad, and it's sticky enough that you need to turn the bottle upside down for it to come out well (as shown in the attached photo).

  Cons

  There were no downsides at all! Some people might dislike the slippery feeling from the low pH cleanser. But that's what makes the skin feel more comfortable and hydrated!

  Tip

  If you're decanting this into a travel bottle for a trip, use a tube! The texture is quite thick, so if you put it in a regular bottle with a cap on top, you'll need to keep it upside down for convenience. Impatient people like me might get a bit frustrated!

  Pros

  - The scent is similar to soap, so it's likely to be universally appealing. - It applies best on slightly damp skin, as it can be a bit harsh on completely dry skin. - The cleansing effectiveness is great, so you don't need a second cleanse for most makeup. It removes everything cleanly, though it might struggle with some point makeup like mascara. - The natural color, possibly due to the Spanish licorice root ingredient, seems beneficial for the skin. I've tried cleansing balms, oils, and gels, and this gel leaves the least residue and has the best cleansing power. It's a must-have for me since I always needed 2-3 cleansing steps before to feel truly clean. - I used the previous version with the light purple packaging, and this one seems to have improved cleansing power and a better scent.

  Cons

  Being a gel, it's not completely free of slipperiness. As I usually do a double cleanse anyway, I haven't found any downsides yet.

  Tip

  As mentioned earlier, using it on completely dry skin can feel a bit rough and may irritate the skin. To cleanse without irritation, I recommend applying it with some water and gently massaging to remove makeup.

  Pros

  This was my first time using a gel-type cleanser, and I loved how it felt firm and bouncy when I squeezed it out and lathered it up. Even after use, I could feel the hydration lingering, which was great for maintaining moisture. I did a cleansing test with my own makeup, and it effectively removed BB cream, eyeliner, and even tint without needing cleansing oil or water. (The red mark on my hand in the photo is from trying to draw a thick eyebrow.) For me, cleansing effectiveness is paramount, and not only did this make me feel thoroughly clean, but I wonder if I'm the only one who felt like my face looked brighter after washing?

  Cons

  Being a gel type, it felt a bit slippery at first, but once I added water and worked it in well, it quickly transformed into a firm lather, which was fine. I think this firmness might be the secret to cleansing deep into the pores and maintaining hydration for longer by gently massaging the skin.

  Tip

  After conducting my own cleansing test, I felt reassured that for days when I wear light makeup or just sunscreen, I could skip separate cleansing steps and go straight to using the Acwell cleanser alone.

  Pros

  - It's a gel cleanser that lathers up nicely - No particles inside, so no worry about anything getting in your eyes - After cleansing with this product, squeezing out blackheads and sebum is incredibly effective. It's as if it softens the sebum in the pores. The downside is that cleansing alone doesn't remove sebum, I still have to squeeze it out myself, which feels like it might damage my skin. It would be better if the product could remove sebum effortlessly just by cleansing. - I feel like the pores in my T-zone have reduced by about a third compared to usual. However, it's not as dramatic as the photos in the advertisements

  Cons

  - The slippery finish means I have to wash for longer than usual - Since it's focused on sebum and dead skin cells in pores, it can be extremely drying. It gets so dry it's almost tingling, which doesn't seem to fit with words like 'pH balancing' and 'low irritation'. I wouldn't recommend it for very dry or sensitive skin, but it's good for oily skin types and summer use
