It glides on smoothly and cleanses without irritation. Infused with rosemary extract, it soothes the skin and leaves a fresh feeling. The cleanser produces a rich lather and leaves your skin feeling clean and cool after washing. It effectively removes excess oil and has decent hydration, so your skin doesn't feel overly dry post-cleanse. It's suitable for super sensitive skin and can be used gently without causing irritation.
ConsOne drawback is that it might not be strong enough to remove heavy makeup or waterproof products in one go, potentially requiring a double cleanse.

After washing, there's no residue and my skin feels refreshed. It's great as a second cleanser. The price point in the $10 range is reasonable, and the ingredients are suitable for everyday use.
ConsThe scent is quite strong, which might be polarizing. It has a strong herbal fragrance that I personally didn't like.

Just one pump creates a rich lather. Scent: It's not a pure rosemary scent, but rather a concentrated herbal aroma reminiscent of medicinal herbs. As a fan of natural fragrances, I found it quite pleasant! Cleansing effectiveness: Perfect for morning cleansing routines! Conclusion: For my combination skin in fall/winter and combination dehydrated skin in spring/summer, this proved to be an ideal winter morning cleanser!
ConsIf you have oily skin, you might find the cleansing power insufficient during summer! However, it should work well for combination dehydrated skin during transitional seasons like now.
TipI alternate between this cleanser and an enzyme cleanser, and I also use a separate exfoliator to manage dead skin cells.

The cleanser lathers well and removes just the right amount of oil, making it a solid choice for everyday use. I'd say its cleansing effectiveness is moderate, which is perfect for most people!
ConsThe first thing that struck me was the scent. The herbal fragrance was a bit overwhelming! I usually don't mind scented or unscented products, but this one had quite a strong grassy smell. I wish they could tone down the fragrance a bit or maybe add some woody notes to make it less off-putting. Other than that, I didn't notice any major drawbacks, but I think people's opinions might vary depending on their personal preferences for texture and feel.
TipInstead of immediately rubbing the product between both hands to create lather, try this: Dispense the cleanser onto one hand, then gently roll and squeeze it with your other hand, keeping your palms relaxed. This technique helps create a richer, more luxurious lather for a more effective cleanse!

Compared to other products that lather excessively, this one is gentler yet more effective in cleansing effectiveness. The cute packaging is also a plus!
ConsThe gel cleanser itself isn't necessarily a downside, but I'd recommend double cleansing with an oil cleanser about once a week for optimal results.
TipPersonally, I suggest using an oil cleanser once a week for thorough cleansing!

With a transparent light green hue, this runny formula lathers up quickly. While the foam isn't dense, it's light and plentiful. Cleansing effectiveness: It cleanses thoroughly and leaves skin feeling refreshed! Though it's mildly acidic, I loved how clean it made my skin feel - like it completely removed excess oil (it might feel a bit drying for some). This gel cleanser is gentle and seems suitable for most skin types (except very dry skin), including sensitive, blemish-prone skin.
ConsWhile I didn't experience any blemishes after use, my skin did feel slightly dry. However, this was easily remedied with immediate skincare application and wasn't severe enough to be a major drawback. The product's scent might be divisive. It's quite strong, and to me, it smelled like a mix of herbal medicine and grass, which I didn't find particularly pleasant. (Not a fan of herbal scents, but I do like grassy ones)
TipYou only need a small amount to create a rich lather. For a gentler cleanse, try working it into a generous, fluffy foam before applying!

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.ProsFirst off, the packaging is adorably cute. The pump is convenient too. The user experience was decent, and it lathered up nicely. Surprisingly, my skin felt incredibly hydrated after washing. For those with truly dry skin, cleansing is crucial, and this product is a game-changer. It moisturizes both the surface and deeper layers of the skin, so I highly recommend it. It left my skin so hydrated that my skincare products didn't absorb immediately afterward. (I guess my skin was a desert before this!) The antibacterial effect is outstanding, which makes sense given the intense herbal scent. It smells like they've blended in a ton of herbs. Those sensitive to fragrances might struggle with this. As for blemishes and pimples, I haven't had many lately, so it's hard to say if that's due to this product's effectiveness.
ConsThe scent, oh the scent! It's way too strong. Other than that, the packaging, ingredients, and overall feel all pass with flying colors!
TipI've been using it as a hand wash too, thanks to its antibacterial properties. It gives me a sense of reassurance every time I use it, which keeps me coming back for more.

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.ProsThe product packaging is so thoughtful! For oils and cleansing foams, the pump lock is thinner than others, which actually prevented leaks when I carried it around. The texture is like a cleansing gel. Usually, gel formulas don't lather well, which I don't like. But surprisingly, this one foams up nicely. The foam is soft and delicate rather than dense, giving a pleasant rolling sensation. It feels like a gentle, kind cleansing? I loved how non-irritating it was! And the best part was the scent! It contains rosemary, so it has a rosemary fragrance. I didn't really know what rosemary smelled like before, but suddenly it hit me from a distant memory - this is it! It's like the herbal bath scent at the spa. Usually, I'd go to spas with herbal baths either with family or alone for some healing time. So when I wash my face after a tiring day at work, it feels like I've stepped into a herbal bath - so relaxing! Now I'm taking a daily 'trip' to the herbal bath with this cleansing foam when I'm stressed. If you have fond memories of spa visits, I'd recommend this product for the scent alone. Interestingly, while the number of blemishes stayed the same, the redness was significantly reduced, making them less noticeable. I think it's because it's less irritating. Even just reducing the redness of blemishes makes it so much easier to apply makeup, no need for concealer, and your skin looks clearer. So if you have small, reddish acne, you might want to give this a try!
ConsThe downside was that initially, I wasn't a fan of gel formulas, so I was a bit disappointed at first. But after seeing how it reduced redness, I realized how important the formula really is. It changed my perspective! I thought I had a conclusion, but I don't!
TipIf you have good memories of the spa, let's take a trip to the herbal bath together!

I love how it's easy to store and looks pretty too. Being a gel type, it's moisturizing and creates a soft, fluffy lather even with just a small amount, making it feel gentle to use. After cleansing, my skin felt hydrated without any tightness, which I really liked. I have combination skin with oily and shiny areas, but this cleanser left my face feeling thoroughly cleansed. My skin felt fresh and clean without being dry. I had some blemishes, and it seemed to help calm them down. Though I haven't used it long enough to see dramatic results, I think with consistent use it could be effective for acne-prone skin!
ConsThe scent is quite strong, so it might be polarizing for some people. Personally, I prefer natural or herbal scents, so I found it tolerable. It wasn't an overly artificial fragrance!
TipFor even better results, I think finishing your skincare routine with products specifically designed for acne-prone skin would be beneficial!

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.ProsFirst off, my skin type is combination dehydrated skin. I was previously using Innisfree's Onion Foam Cleanser. - The scent is slightly reminiscent of Madecassoside... If you've tried Medi* Madeca pads, you'll recognize it - kind of like a pharmacy smell? I don't have strong preferences when it comes to fragrances, so I used it comfortably, but those with sensitive skin might want to keep this in mind! - It lathers up well! - The pump dispenser made it hygienic and easy to use.
Cons- While it's said to be good for blemish-prone skin, I honestly didn't notice much of an effect. - There was a slight feeling of tightness after washing. Of course, I experience some tightness with any product I use, it's just a matter of degree, and this wasn't too intense! However, if you have extremely dry skin, you might find it challenging, especially since I have oily skin. - When cleansing, it doesn't give that super squeaky-clean feeling, it's more of a... just a gentle cleanse? - Although I only used it for a short time, I probably won't repurchase as I didn't see much of an effect...
