Since the end is fixed, it doesn't fall off easily and it's convenient. The fragrance is a mix of herbal scent and refreshing citrus, which is right up my alley.😆 It contains almond powder and rice powder, so there are some granules, but it's not as irritating as other scrub products, which is quite surprising.🫢 Since I have sensitive skin, I usually mix scrub products with a foaming cleansing wash, but this one can be used on its own without any irritation, which I really like. The name is 'Tteoksop', but the texture isn't as thick and chewy as the name suggests. It's more like a slightly viscous balm-type. After use, my skin felt moisturized, and a small amount produced a very rich lather. It seems to have helped refine the texture around my T-zone and lighten my blackheads!
ConsAlthough using the scrub did not seem to visibly and thoroughly clear the blackheads as I had hoped, I was disappointed.
TipConsidering that it's a shower-type product, I'd recommend taking out a small amount with a spatula beforehand and using it while showering, as the water may get into the container if you use it directly during the shower.

Likely no strong likes or dislikes. I've been using it daily, first wetting the skin and then using it. When deep cleansing is needed, I leave it on for a few minutes as a mask before rinsing. The pretty packaging makes me happy, and the fragrance is nice! It's creamy without being overly harsh, and the cleansing power is good, so I think I'll continue using it even in the summer. As shown in the photo, there are some granules, but they aren't irritatingly rough. It wasn't irritating to my skin when I used it, and I think those with blemish-prone skin could use it comfortably as well. It doesn't dramatically remove oil, but it seems good for non-irritating care. Most importantly, it can remove point makeup, and I was able to remove my full makeup using just this product without a second cleansing. I've been trying to simplify my cleansing routine lately, and this product seems perfect for that.
ConsThere were no particularly disappointing aspects! It's relatively mild, so I think it would work well for any type.
TipAfter showering, when the skin is slightly more supple, using it like a face mask seems to be quite beneficial.

ConsThe downside is that if I were to choose, the scent? I prefer unscented products..
TipI followed the instructions for using the cleansing pack that were well described in various places. I applied it evenly to my skin and then, after 1-2 minutes, I added water and gently rolled it around. I used it the same way as when rinsing off cleansing milk.

It was thick and creamy when applied. When mixed with water and massaged, it produced a lot of lather, allowing for a gentle cleansing. The scent was a smooth, soft fragrance reminiscent of a matcha latte or mugwort latte, which I enjoyed. The usage was great, as the abundant lather was nice, and my skin felt smooth and moisturized after rinsing it off. There was no irritation, but the granules helped with exfoliation, which may be a downside for those who dislike the scrubbing particles. It was able to thoroughly remove makeup while providing a non-irritating cleansing, which I appreciated.
ConsThe common drawback of products that are scooped out is that when using cleansing foam as a secondary cleansing step, it can be a bit inconvenient to open the container and scoop it out since your hands are already wet.

However, when it comes into contact with water, it produces a rich and bouncy lather. The scrub particles are also effective in deeply cleansing blackheads and uneven skin texture. While the lather is sufficient when worked in the palms, using a cleansing brush can provide an even gentler, low-irritation cleansing experience. ✅ Surprisingly moisturizing and soft finish: Despite the scrub-containing, dense texture, the cleanser rinses off cleanly without leaving any tightness or dryness. The finish is soft and comfortable. ✅ No breakout issues: As a sensitive combination skin type, I often struggle with cleansers disrupting my skin's moisture balance and causing breakouts. But during the use of the Arensia Tteoksoap, my skin did not experience any worsening of troubles or imbalance. ✅ Aesthetically pleasing packaging: The package design may be a matter of personal preference, but I found it quite appealing. The Tteoksoap line comes in various colors, which makes the products easy to differentiate. The colors themselves are not overly bold or striking, making the packaging look nice in the bathroom.
Cons✅ May be too stimulating for daily use : As mentioned in the advantages, the scrub granules can be stimulating, so it may be too much for daily use. It's recommended to use it 2-3 times a week or adjust the frequency based on individual skin condition. ✅ Scent may be polarizing : The unique fragrance is a blend of sweet fruit and refreshing herbal notes, but the distinctive scent may be unpleasant for some. ✅ Hygiene concerns due to jar packaging : Being in a jar format, hygiene is the main concern. Especially since the formula dissolves when in contact with water, extra care is needed when using it in the shower. ✅ Requires pre-cleansing for makeup removal : While the cleansing power is not weak, it may not be enough to thoroughly remove makeup. It provides a deeper cleansing than regular foam cleansers, but makeup should be pre-cleansed with oil or milk before using this product.
Tip- Using a whisk to create a rich foam allows for a more gentle application. - It produces a lot of foam with just a small amount, so you'll need to adjust the quantity. - I recommend using it 2-3 times a week.

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 recommended product for sensitive skin is a gentle scrub. The texture is more like a soft, dense lump rather than a thick, chewy one. The package is lightweight and comes with a spatula. The granules are smaller and less rough compared to other scrub products. While it doesn't leave the skin overly dry, there is still a slight tightness after use. The cleansing power is thorough, leaving the skin feeling clean and smooth, but there is no noticeable pore improvement. The product is a bit inconvenient to use as it cannot get wet. It may be slightly irritating, so it's not recommended for daily use by those with sensitive skin, but can be used as a scrub substitute 3-4 times a week. Overall, it's a satisfactory product, especially for oily skin types, though the short expiration date of similar products was a previous issue. The smooth, even complexion after use makes it a good option, but the dryness is a downside. The packaging is nice, making it a good gift choice, and the reviewer would consider repurchasing a different version.
ConsDry skin standards were disappointing due to a sense of dryness after use. It is burdensome and irritating to use it daily.

The review is completely unbiased and honest, with no guidelines or restrictions. Trial Reviewers' reviews undergo the same strict verification process as regular reviews, and if they don't meet our standards, revisions will be requested.Pros- No tightening sensation after cleansing (no squeaky-clean finish) - Contains fine granules that provide an excellent exfoliating effect - Effectively clears blackheads and refines pores, visibly improving skin texture - Makeup application the next day is smooth, with no clogged pores - Can cleanse up to sunscreen level
Cons- When used on a damp face, the product does not adhere well, so it should be used on a dry face. - Rolling and massaging while cleansing is necessary, but it stings quite a bit if it gets in the eyes. - There is continuous foaming, so it's unclear how long it needs to be rinsed. - The jar-type packaging is a bit inconvenient to apply on the face (a tube-type would likely be better). - This product is sufficient when only wearing sunscreen, but when also wearing foundation/cushion, double cleansing is necessary.
TipTo do double cleansing, wipe the face with a cleansing oil or cream, then use it after removing the moisture on the face! - Avoid the eye area as it may cause eye irritation - Although it seems to have many drawbacks when using it, I've seen a really big effect in removing blackheads ~~! Luckily, I was selected as a Hwahae Trial Reviewer, (thank you 🫶🏻) and I think I'll buy it myself once I finish using the sample.

Trial Reviewers' reviews undergo the same strict verification process as regular reviews, and if they don't meet our standards, revisions will be requested.ProsHwahae Normally, I have some acne scars, uneven skin texture, and enlarged pores. During seasonal changes, I tend to experience dryness and combination skin. The texture is like sticky rice cake - thick and chewy. I can feel some granules, and as I scrub, my skin immediately becomes smooth and refined. It's effective for skin care. There is a light, fresh, and sweet fragrance. The packaging is a jar that you twist open, with a spatula stored in the lid. The 120g size is sufficient, and a small amount produces a lot of lather, so the price-to-volume ratio is very good. It can remove makeup like foundation, mascara, eyeliner, and glitter in one cleansing. After washing, my skin is left moisturized without feeling tight. When used as a mask, applying it thickly is effective for removing whiteheads under the chin.
ConsCleansing time When using a pack cleanser, it's difficult to remove and takes some time to wipe off It really stings if it gets in the eyes Removal More effective on uneven texture and whiteheads, skin texture than blackhead removal
TipUsing a pack cleanser during showering was effective in removing whiteheads and uneven skin texture!!

I sometimes get inflammatory acne and regular acne too :( Since winning, I've been cleansing my face every evening. I remove my makeup and use a secondary cleansing method. There seem to be small granules that provide a scrubbing effect as well. After using it, my bare skin feels slightly smoother! My acne hasn't gotten worse, and there's been no irritation. After cleansing, my skin is less dry and more moisturized compared to when I use other foam cleansers. The fragrance is like apple? Geranium? It's a fresh scent. There's no dramatic effect like "Makeup applies so much better now!!" or "My skin has improved tremendously!!", but my skin texture has subtly improved in a way that satisfies me.
ConsWhile the flat shape may be economical as it is scraped all the way down to the bottom, it is not as convenient as the tube form.

It had a nice fragrance. It had a refreshing aroma. So I didn't have any aversion to it. 2. There were granules, which made it a good scrub. It wasn't irritating and was gentle. 3. The texture was somewhere between a rice cake and a potato salad. 4. When water was applied, it lathered up and transformed into a foam, so I didn't need to use another cleanser. 5. I liked the part of the container where the spoon rests the most. It was convenient to open the lid, and I thought the idea of using that end to hold the spoon was a good one. 6. Moisturizing: It's hard to say it was extremely moisturizing, but it also didn't feel like my skin was being pulled too much. This level of moisturizing is satisfactory.
ConsThe lingering aroma is that of grains. Personally, I'm not a fan of this scent, but it's not so unpleasant as to be bothersome.
