It was fascinating to see the gel-like formula transform into an oil. I was able to remove my eyebrow mascara, lip, and eye makeup directly with this product, and it worked well without any irritation. I recommend this non-irritating cleansing oil to those who are looking for one.
ConsWhen I press the pump, it doesn't come up all the way, only about two-thirds of the way. There seems to be a slight residual slippery feeling.

This product seems to have addressed the drawbacks of both forms. It comes out as a gel form with just a pump, making cleansing much easier. Even those who skip the first cleansing and just use a foam cleanser can benefit from this recommendation.
ConsAfter cleansing, there is a slippery, residual feeling rather than a refreshing one, so I end up doing a second cleanse, which then makes my skin too dry. I wish the emulsification was better.

Cons<Not Recommended For> - Those with extremely oily skin types - Those who prefer a squeaky clean feeling after cleansing Being a cleansing 'jelly' rather than an oil, it works well for removing makeup, but may not be as satisfactory for the cleansing process itself. <What I Didn't Like> - There was a slippery feeling left on the skin after cleansing - The jelly texture sometimes felt unpleasant when rolling it around during cleansing (a bit sticky) It's highly recommended to follow up with a second cleanse after using this product!

However, this product has a jelly-like texture that is thicker and more substantial. Creams can also be a hassle to scoop out each time, but this cleanser combines the benefits of a cleansing balm and a pumping oil, making it a convenient option. As a vegan cosmetic, it contains gentle ingredients, so it worked well for my sensitive skin without causing any issues. I was worried the scent might be sharp, like kombucha, but it was actually unscented, which I appreciated.
ConsDue to the gentle formula, there is a slightly greasy feeling left behind after cleansing. Those who prefer a more squeaky-clean sensation may find this aspect unsatisfactory.
TipUsing a warm towel steam to open the pores, and rolling it over the T-zone area, can help effectively remove blackheads and whiteheads. This cleansing oil can also be used for a gentle at-home pore cleansing routine.

I knew that oily skin types should use oil to remove makeup, but as an extremely dry-skinned person, I was concerned that using an oil product would immediately cause breakouts on my sensitive skin. However, after being selected as a Hwahae Trial Reviewer, I got to try the Kaine Kombucha Jelly Oil Cleanser. I was actually quite unfamiliar with kombucha, only knowing about kombucha tea, so using a kombucha-based cosmetic product was a novel experience for me. Kombucha is made by fermenting green tea into black tea, then adding beneficial bacteria. This fermentation process enhances the levels of polyphenols, probiotics, and vitamin B, which can help soothe the skin and strengthen the skin barrier. The Kaine Kombucha Jelly Oil Cleanser contains this fermented kombucha extract, making it a vegan product that even sensitive skin types like mine can use with confidence. I found the gel-type oil formula interesting - it doesn't drip, but transforms into an oil when you start massaging it.
ConsAfter using the cleanser, my face felt a bit slippery, so I had to rinse it thoroughly. The slippery feeling was a bit bothersome for me, so I ended up using an additional cleansing foam to make sure it was all rinsed off. I also experienced a slight stinging sensation around my eyes.
TipIf you add a bit of water and emulsify the product after rolling it, you'll find that it rinses off more thoroughly.

Leaves skin feeling hydrated and makeup is thoroughly removed after cleansing (good cleansing power) 2. Contains fermented kombucha, panthenol, and plant-based oils, so it's more moisturizing than regular cleansing oils 3. Vegan formula, so no irritation and no stinging in the eyes 4. Almost fragrance-free, so suitable for all 5. Can be a satisfactory first cleanse for those who only use sunscreen regularly
ConsTo minimize friction on the skin, you need to use 4 pumps each time, so it seems like it will be used up quickly.
Tip1. You can cleanly remove lip and eye makeup by first using a lip and eye makeup remover, and then using a cleansing product. 2. After using this product as the first cleansing step, using a mildly alkaline cleansing product as the second step can remove any remaining residue without leaving any leftover waste when removing makeup.

Trial Reviewers' reviews undergo the same strict verification process as regular reviews, and if they don't meet our standards, revisions will be requested.ProsThe packaging and design are incredibly luxurious and beautiful. It feels like a gift when I use it, and it's visually pleasing every time. The texture is like jelly, as described, and there was no stinging sensation during use. The fragrance also doesn't linger too much, so there won't be much controversy around it. The usage is similar to an emulsifying cleansing oil, and it comes with instructions and photos, which is useful.
ConsIt doesn't seem to significantly help in calming down blemishes, though it doesn't aggravate them either. Also, the satisfaction of removing blackheads and whiteheads, like with other oils from brands like Witch's Factory, is a bit less pronounced... I suppose that's because it's a gel. And... while it does cleanse, it's not incredibly so. There's a bit more slipperiness left after emulsifying, so I ended up double-cleansing with a foam when using this product. And there was a relatively greater amount of residue when wiping it off.
TipI'd recommend this more for those with dry skin types rather than my power-oily complexion. On days when you've just worn light makeup like sunscreen, this could be a good option for a gentle cleanse.

The case: The opaque case and packaging gave me a pleasant feeling~ It also gave me the impression that it would be beneficial for skin health. Fragrance: The rice grain-like fragrance made me feel like it would be good for the skin. The pump dispenser prevented contamination, which was great. There was no eye irritation, and the beneficial ingredients didn't feel burdensome on my skin.
ConsUsing just one product for cleansing didn't seem to provide a satisfactory cleansing experience. It felt like applying a moisturizing cream, but I had to pump it 3 or more times to use it, and it felt sticky. There was a very slippery feeling left behind. On days when I wore a lot of makeup, I think I would need to double cleanse. It would have been better if the packaging had the ingredients and such listed.

It has a very rich, delicious fragrance. 🫒 Usage When you first apply it to your face and roll it, there is a slight resistance. After a little while, it seems to react to your body temperature and transforms into an oil-rolling texture with a moisturizing feel! It emulsifies well, but since it's a transformative texture, you need to roll it a bit longer and more diligently, which has its pros and cons. It slightly went into my eyes, but the irritation was tolerable, and my vision was clear after rinsing. Shallow whiteheads and some shallow blackheads were cleared after the second cleansing foam. (The deep-rooted blackheads only became thinner, not fully removed, which is a bit disappointing) 🫒 Packaging/Container The beautiful primary container looks nice, but even the basic usage instructions are omitted in this minimalist container^^; (Of course, there's not much to the usage instructions anyway) The pump part has a convenient locking mechanism, so it would be convenient for travel! You have to unfold the outer box to check the detailed information... The outer box doesn't tear easily, so I was very careful not to damage the printed part.
ConsUntil the emulsification, I could stand upright in front of the mirror and cleanse, but from the emulsification stage, having to bend my waist or letting it drip down to my elbows was no different from other products. The leaflet that came with it says no second cleansing is needed.. But the rinsing and finishing feel is very slippery, so I'm a bit uneasy about that. It's a good texture, but aside from the unique texture, I didn't feel any particular convenience, and the price of 25,000 won for a 145ml bottle is something to ponder over, as it felt rather average.
TipWhen it's in a jelly texture, you can do sufficient massage. It's a cleansing product, but the prolonged massage characteristic seems good for morning deep cleansing. Gentle fragrance and sufficient massage on a slightly less dirty (?) face... It feels like a nice way to gently wake up:) (They say if you roll it for too long, the impurities that have melted out get reabsorbed again, so... as seen in other oil usage methods) Considering the long rolling time, I used a mild acidic cleansing foam as the second cleanse, but if there's any oil residue that causes trouble, try using an alkaline cleanser for the second cleanse.

Texture: The texture is like a moisturizing cream, it's jelly-like and bouncy ㅎㅎ 2. Fragrance: The fragrance is not very strong, so even sensitive skin types can use it 3. Moisturizing: When I double cleanse, using this product after feels less drying. If you only use this for cleansing, it leaves the skin very moisturized and hydrated 4. Contains great ingredients for the skin like panthenol, ceramides, and hyaluronic acid ♡ 5. Even though I don't wear heavy makeup, this cleanser removes it well (but use a dedicated eye and lip makeup remover for those areas ^^) 6. I also like the aesthetically pleasing packaging ㅎㅎ It's nice to use something pretty
Cons1. It said it wouldn't sting the eyes, but it did sting a bit for me It was less than other products, but the stinging was still there, so I had to rinse it off quickly with water There was also a blurry vision effect 2. It said it would transform into an oil, but for me it just felt like regular lotion ㅜ I had to rub it in more. And this seems to vary by person, but for me, using just this for cleansing left a bit of a slippery feeling, so people who don't like that should definitely double cleanse
