It has just the right amount of hydration and texture for oily skin to use daily. Using it consistently about twice a week should help with dead skin cell removal. For an exfoliating foam, it leaves a surprisingly moisturizing finish. If you control the pressure while rolling, even those with dry skin could be quite satisfied with it.
ConsIt doesn't lather up very well, and the beads are quite large. If you're not careful and apply too much pressure while rolling, it could potentially irritate the skin. Because it doesn't foam up much, you might feel like it's not removing makeup effectively, which leads to using a foam cleanser beforehand.
TipDon't get overzealous and apply too much pressure when rolling. Keep it gentle and light!

As someone whose skin would freak out at the slightest strong irritation, I never dreamed I could use an exfoliator. But this one? Not a single reaction. It's just... perfect. Fragrance-free: Even those with sensitive noses can use this without any issues. It's not just tolerable, it's incredibly easy to use thanks to being unscented! Effectiveness: Absolute perfection. It effortlessly sweeps away all those pesky dead skin cells in one go. It works so quickly and effectively that you might wonder how you'll ever use up the whole bottle!
ConsOut of all the exfoliating foams I've used, this one is absolute perfection. There's literally nothing to complain about - no discomfort, no blemishes, nothing!
TipPro tip: If you slightly dampen your face before use, you'll feel like it clears away dead skin cells even more effectively. After exfoliating with the Banobagi peeling foam, follow up with their toner. Your face will be as smooth and radiant as a freshly peeled egg!

It contains small particles that help manage dead skin cells on the skin's surface without causing much irritation. I liked that it left my skin feeling less tight after cleansing, and the soft foam texture was pleasant. It didn't cause any blemishes, so I think it would be suitable even for those with super sensitive skin.
ConsBeing a gel type, it doesn't produce a rich lather. While it's close to being unscented, there's a slight hint of what reminds me of dish soap, which is a bit disappointing. I almost wish it had a pleasant fragrance instead.
TipThe small particles don't dissolve, so be careful not to get them in your eyes. Make sure to keep your eyes closed tightly while cleansing.

Banish dead skin cells with just one wash? Gently wipe them all away? This product does just that! It's not just a cleanser, but an all-rounder that revives everything from dead skin cells to skin texture, tone, and even that silky smooth glow. That's why they call it a smart multi-peeling foam! Clinically tested for 5 different benefits, just one use instantly improves skin texture, brightens complexion, enhances radiance, removes stubborn dead skin cells, and more! It's absolute perfection - I'm thrilled to have found such a gem after so long! With 7 clinical tests completed, this gentle exfoliating product allows for a mild cleanse while moisturizing and exfoliating at the same time. If you look closely, you can see tiny exfoliating beads in the clear foam. What I really loved was how small and soft these particles were - I felt absolutely no irritation. As someone with sensitive combination skin prone to flushing and unpredictable reactions, I usually can't exfoliate carelessly. I never dare touch other peeling or scrub products because my face would flare up. But wow! This one removed stubborn dead skin cells without any irritation, leaving my skin smooth. After using this, my skin becomes silky soft, and even makeup applies better. When the skin texture is refined, it glows and seems to absorb skincare products better - I think those who know, know! Anyway, I absolutely, totally, 100% recommend this for sensitive skin. It's amazing!
ConsNo downsides. I just wish they'd run a promotion when I'm buying it, maybe with a larger size too!

When I first squeezed it onto my hand, it came out as a transparent gel with lots of bubbles and tiny granules, just like in the photo. As I started rubbing it between my hands, the clear color turned white. When applying it to my face, I could feel the small particles working to remove dead skin cells, true to its peeling foam nature. The scent is practically fragrance-free, which is great. I have severe acne-prone skin, so I usually can't use products with granules or anything that might be irritating. However, this product's description mentioned it's suitable for acne-prone and sensitive skin, so I felt comfortable using it. What's even better is that this product combines three functions in one: cleansing, exfoliation, and improving skin texture.
ConsWhen I tried to work up a lather by rubbing it in my hands, it didn't foam up well - maybe I didn't use enough product? It also felt a bit too thick or stiff. I ended up using more than what's shown in the photo to create enough foam for use. Of course, since this is my first time using a peeling foam, it's possible that I might have misunderstood how to use it properly or had incorrect expectations.

It's nicknamed the all-rounder because it not only cleanses but also improves skin texture, tone, and adds a glow. 💛 Tested for sensitive skin After using it for about 3 days, I found the peeling particles weren't too large, making it less irritating and noticeably gentle on the skin! - Wet your face, massage thoroughly, then rinse for a soft and refreshed finish. - As the seasons changed, I noticed some flakiness, but this product helped care for my skin without unnecessary irritation. 💛 Completed 5 clinical tests! Just one use is said to instantly improve skin texture and tone, while also enhancing radiance! - As it cleared away dead skin cells and impurities, my skin looked noticeably clearer and healthier. Seeing such a quick improvement in my complexion really lifted my spirits!
ConsWhile it's gentle enough for sensitive skin, I found it a bit disappointing that it wasn't as hydrating as I'd hoped. The dryness that follows use is a common drawback of peeling products, but this one left my skin feeling less moisturized than expected.

Generally, they all work well for me without issues. Advantages: ■ The fine particles are gentle and non-irritating when massaging, making it suitable for my thicker skin. (It's fine for those with thicker skin like me, but may not be suitable for those with thin, easily reddened, or extremely sensitive skin!) ■ Even when applied to dry skin to get that gommage peeling gel effect, it's not too rough. I gently massaged the formula, then gradually added water, which was still gentle on the skin and pleasant to use. (However, it's best to follow the product instructions and use it with water for even less irritation!) ■ When applied to damp skin, the texture immediately becomes softer, giving a true 'peeling foam' feel. Of course, following the instructions and lathering with hands makes it even gentler and more comfortable to use. ■ It doesn't feel irritating even when left on briefly, and when rinsed off, it leaves the skin feeling soft and moisturized rather than squeaky clean, which I appreciate. ■ After use, I love how my skin texture feels smoother and retains moisture, preventing immediate dryness. ■ The 'peeling foam' definitely enhances the absorption of serums and ampoules afterwards, making it great for nighttime skincare routines or prepping skin for morning makeup.
ConsAlthough I have sensitive skin, it's on the thicker side, so I didn't experience any irritation. The best part was that it didn't cause any blemishes, and among exfoliating products, I find the user experience quite satisfactory!
Tip■ I always pair exfoliating/management products with device treatments. It really helps skincare and makeup absorb better! (Devices I use: Choose one from Quadcera, Pra.L Intensive Care, or Miso Galvanic) ➡ Using the peeling foam in the morning, followed by skincare (ampoule or serum + a bit of cream) creates a great base for makeup. If you're not in a rush, using a device to help absorb the skincare products makes makeup look even better! ➡ Using the peeling foam at night, followed by skincare products and a device treatment, helps improve skin texture and tone, leaving skin feeling softer the next morning. - Apply ampoule or serum generously and use the device - Or layer ampoule or serum, then aloe gel or a light moisturizer before using the device

Surprisingly, after using this peeling foam, my complexion became noticeably brighter. When cleansing, it feels like I'm using a really gentle foam cleanser, but the small beads scattered throughout seem to effectively remove dead skin cells. I've been using a daily Vitamin C serum without any irritation, but after using this peeling foam, I noticed a slight tingling sensation when applying the serum. To avoid potential irritation, I've been using this peeling foam only in the evenings. (I have thin, super sensitive skin and combination dehydrated skin.) After using it consistently for two full weeks, my skin tone has truly brightened. I wish I had taken before and after photos! If you have a lot of dead skin cells or oily skin, I think using this product morning and night would be beneficial.
ConsI really dislike foams with beads in them. If these beads get into my eyes while cleansing, it's extremely uncomfortable and difficult to remove. It feels like getting sand in your eyes - painful. Unfortunately, this product also contains beads. While it does exfoliate well when you massage it in, the beads don't dissolve easily during the process. To avoid getting these beads in my eyes, I used a different foam cleanser around my eye area. This extra step was a bit inconvenient. It's not really a problem with the product itself, but rather with my cleansing method (I tend to open my eyes to check while cleansing, which is when I think most of the beads get in). I'm sharing this in case there are others like me who might have the same issue.
TipSince it's a peeling foam, it's a good idea to adjust the frequency of use based on your skin type. It definitely removes dead skin cells effectively, so I recommend using it alongside a serum or essence that targets any skin concerns you have for a synergistic effect. I used it with a Vitamin C serum, which might be why my skin tone brightened in just two weeks. I've been using Vitamin C serum for a while, but the effects were minimal. However, when used together with this peeling foam, the results were amazing! Make sure to use it with an ampoule for best results!

Its standout feature is the ability to remove dead skin cells without irritation, making it safe even for sensitive skin. I'd recommend using it once every two days or once daily. What I really loved is how it leaves your skin feeling moisturized and refreshed after use, not squeaky clean. It's an all-in-one product that not only exfoliates but also cares for your complexion and skin texture, which made me even more satisfied. After cleansing and applying a hydrating cream, your skin feels like it's brightened by a shade. It's a low-irritation product that's passed sensitivity tests, so I felt confident using it. You can feel your skin becoming smoother right after use. The scrub particles are so gentle that you can exfoliate without any irritation.
ConsSince it's a cleansing peeling foam, it might be a bit much to use twice daily, morning and night.
TipDon't use too much water - just dampen your face slightly and massage it in for best results! Make sure to apply a moisturizer right after washing your face. Your skin will become incredibly hydrated, like baby skin.

I found that it gently exfoliates without causing much irritation to my skin. While I wouldn't recommend this to those who prefer an intense weekly exfoliation, it's been great for someone like me who's sensitive to both physical and chemical exfoliants. I've been using it every three days for a gentle exfoliation routine. 1. The small beads in the product aren't irritating at all. They have a rubber-like texture that allows for a gentle rolling motion. I appreciated the combination of mild chemical exfoliation with some physical exfoliation, rather than relying solely on chemical methods. 2. It's marketed as a substitute for cleansing foam. After use, my skin feels clean but not dry, with a slight moisturized feeling - perfect for oily skin types like mine. I was very pleased with the finish it gave. 3. While it didn't completely remove deep-seated blackheads, it seemed to improve my overall skin texture. After using this product and following up with my skincare routine, I could feel that my skin was much smoother, and it seemed like my other products were absorbing better.
Cons1. As you can see in the photo, it doesn't lather up very much. While I appreciated this mildness, I wouldn't recommend it to those looking to use it as a second cleanser or as a replacement for cleansing foam. I was slightly concerned that adding this step after double cleansing might lead to over-cleansing and irritation. However, since it's not a daily-use product, it worked fine for my skin. 2. As someone with oily skin, I have a lot of deep-seated blackheads. Being a gentle product, it didn't seem to address these issues completely.
