I'm not sure if it's just my imagination, but after emulsifying and rinsing thoroughly, I can feel something like sebum being removed. It's amazing!
ConsIf there's a downside, it's that this product is hard to wash off. No matter how much I emulsify and rinse with water, some foam remains and my skin feels slippery. I have to cleanse excessively to get it off properly.

I tried the Arencia Rice Soap, which is already a famous product, so I had high expectations. When you open the lid, there's even a scoop included! True to its name 'rice soap', it has a really firm, chewy texture. After using it, my skin feels incredibly firm and smooth. It refines my skin texture, removes dead skin cells, and leaves my skin incredibly soft! It doesn't make my skin feel tight, so makeup applies well too. It seems to live up to its reputation!
ConsIf you apply too much, it can leave a slippery residue that takes a while to wash off completely.
TipApply a moderate amount to your face as a mask, then gently roll it with damp hands before rinsing off with lukewarm water. It helps remove dead skin cells, evens skin tone, and leaves your skin soft and firm.

I learned to use a small amount... The scent is incredibly refreshing! A fragrance that everyone should like! The natural ingredients make it great for those concerned about skincare components It seems better suited for dry skin rather than oily! The large quantity makes it great value for money as it'll last a long time!
ConsIt's tricky to control the amount when using the spoon And water keeps getting into the container - sigh, that's disappointing While it finishes with good hydration, I took off one star because it's hard to tell when the slippery feeling will end

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 packaging is adorably matte with a cute jar design! I love that the spatula is securely attached inside the package, so I won't lose it easily. The texture is incredibly smooth and bouncy! It's so satisfying to scoop it out with the spatula. The tiny granules seem to exfoliate dead skin cells, which means I don't need to use a separate peeling gel - that's a big plus! The fragrance is a burst of fresh apple scent! I'm usually very sensitive to smells, but this one is pleasant and doesn't bother me at all. I really like that it works as both a mask and a cleanser in one step! After rinsing, unlike other cleansers that leave my skin feeling squeaky clean, this one leaves a hydrated finish, which I appreciate.
ConsSince I have super sensitive skin, I think I'll need to limit use to once a week because of the exfoliating granules. Daily use might be too harsh for me. While I like the hydrated finish, there's a slight slippery residue left behind. I might need to rinse a few extra times to completely remove it. Apart from these minor issues, I don't have any other complaints. I'm also using the pink Arencia version and I'm thoroughly satisfied with both. They're top-notch!

It lathers up incredibly well - even a small amount the size of your fingernail produces a ton of foam. The granules provide a gentle exfoliation effect, helping to remove dead skin cells. - Results After washing with this soap bar, your face noticeably brightens and your skin texture becomes more firm. You can see the whitening effect with your naked eye - it's quite impressive! Especially when used as a cleansing mask by applying it, lathering up, and then rinsing off, it really helps your skincare products absorb better and tightens your pores. With consistent use, I think it could be effective for pore reduction. - Skin feel After use, there's a smooth feeling left on the skin, which I think is due to improved skin texture. There might be a slight feeling that you haven't rinsed thoroughly, but once you pat dry, your skin feels incredibly soft and fresh. Applying emulsion afterwards feels amazing. - Texture It's very firm and compact. You can apply it directly to your face without water, though it might feel a bit stiff. As soon as it touches water, it lathers up into an incredibly soft foam.
ConsThe granules might be a bit irritating, as daily use tends to cause one or two blemishes to appear around day 4 or 5. Using it as a mask every 3-4 days worked better for me! The smooth feeling it leaves behind might not be everyone's cup of tea. At first, I kept rinsing because I thought it hadn't washed off properly, which could potentially lead to irritation.
TipI found that using it as a wash-off mask by leaving it on for a few minutes before lathering and rinsing was much more effective for improving skin texture than using it as a regular cleanser.

The package itself is adorably round, and the spatula conveniently tucked inside the lid makes application a breeze! Texture - Soft and elastic formula. It scoops up smoothly with the spatula! When applied to the face, it spreads easily with a pleasantly bouncy feel. The tiny granules seem to help with dead skin cell removal. Scent - A nutty, mugwort rice cake-like aroma. It has a wholesome scent that makes you feel like you're applying something truly natural and beneficial to your skin! The subtle fragrance shouldn't be polarizing, and even my mother approved of it. User experience - Glides on smoothly and works as a gentle scrub too! It's not harsh, so daily use was fine. The soft, rich lather feels great during cleansing. Effects - Great for achieving smooth skin texture! It manages dead skin cells without irritation and leaves you feeling thoroughly cleansed. After use, you can really feel how soft and supple your skin becomes. In the morning after cleansing, makeup applies more evenly and absorbs well into the skin. Love it!
ConsWhile there's nothing particularly disappointing, the slippery feeling when lathering with water and rinsing lasts a bit longer, so you need to be thorough when washing it off to ensure it's completely removed.

The review is completely unbiased and honest, with no guidelines or restrictions. 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.ProsMy skin type is sensitive and oily. Usage period: I used this product every evening for a week from March 29th to April 6th. Scent - It has a distinct, strong cosmetic scent that's almost like a perfume. It's pleasant, but those who are sensitive to fragrances might find it a bit overwhelming. Texture & Feel - I love that it contains scrub particles, eliminating the need for a separate cleansing balm or oil. It's great for managing sebum and blackheads all in one go. It lathers well and feels like a cleansing pack in itself. After washing, my skin texture felt refined and smooth. I definitely noticed a reduction in sebum production, and it seemed to prevent new blackheads from forming. Recommended Skin Type - This product would likely work best for oily skin types. For those with very sensitive or extremely dry skin, I'd recommend using it occasionally or only in the evening. Even though I have oily skin, I only use it at night as I feel it might be too harsh for morning use. Despite using it when my skin wasn't in the best condition, it didn't cause any breakouts. Given how popular this product is right now, I think it's worth trying at least once if you haven't already!
ConsIt feels a bit slippery when rinsing off, so you need to wash quite thoroughly, which can be a bit inconvenient. It takes longer to rinse off completely compared to my usual cleansing routine. Also, I felt that using it daily when not wearing sunscreen or makeup might be a bit harsh on the skin. On bare-faced days, I prefer to use my regular foam cleanser.
TipInstead of applying it directly to your face and rubbing, it's better to take a small amount, mix it with a bit of water, apply a thin layer to your face, and gently massage in circular motions. This method is less irritating and works well for the skin.

The application method is similar to cleansing oil. It's my first time using this type of cleanser, so it felt new, but it's like giving your face a daily mask treatment! The scent is lovely, and it gives me a good feeling of daily skincare. It's said to be effective for blackheads, so I've been using it for a few days. While I'm not sure if it reduces them, it seems to at least prevent them from increasing! I have oily skin, so blackheads tend to form quickly if I'm not careful, but that wasn't the case with this. If you want to manage blackheads daily, this is a good option. Most importantly, its cleansing function is just right. It's sufficient for removing daily makeup. When I use foam cleanser alone, I worry about not removing sunscreen or oil-based cosmetics properly, so I end up using oil cleanser. But with this, everything gets cleansed in one go, which is convenient. However, it has some granules, so those with super sensitive skin should use it gently. I'm not particularly sensitive, so it was fine for me. Lately, I've been using this for cleansing at night, followed by a regenerating cream for moisture, and my skin stays hydrated until morning. Some cleansers can be drying, leaving you feeling like you need more even after using a regenerating cream, but this one seems to focus on keeping the skin moisturized.
ConsYou need to rinse it off carefully multiple times. If you're not thorough, it leaves a slippery residue in some areas. It's not a cleanser that rinses off quickly with just a few splashes, so you need to pay attention.

A friend who worked at Wadiz told me even their employees stockpile it, so I decided to give it a try. This is now my second time using it! First off, I have combination dehydrated skin - oily but lacking moisture. #Texture True to its 'Rice Cake Soap' name, it's really sticky. You scoop it out of the container with a spatula, and it doesn't drip or run. You take a bit in your hand and lather it up, though it doesn't foam much. With its variety of ingredients, you can feel some granules. The texture is similar to a scrub, but when you rub it in your hands, it gets a bit sticky. #Cleansing effectiveness It's great at thoroughly removing dead skin cells and excess oil. You can feel your skin becoming smoother. #Hydration After using it, your skin doesn't feel stripped, which is nice. It seems to help retain moisture, so your skin stays hydrated.
ConsThere wasn't anything particularly unsatisfying about it. Maybe just that it feels a bit slippery when washing?
TipWhen you first start using it, you might notice some skin peeling. After a few more uses, that process completes, and your skin becomes super soft! So just push through that initial stage!

I was worried about irritation from the fine particles, but when mixed with water, the texture became very soft. Applying it to my face, it wasn't particularly irritating. I prepped my skin by dampening it first due to nose sebum, and it seemed to deep clean effectively! The finish feels gentle and less irritating. However, I'd recommend using it only in the evening! With consistent use, I think it could reduce sebum more than regular foam cleansers. Unless you have extremely dry skin, this should work well for most people!
ConsI'm not sure if this is a drawback, but it requires multiple rinses as it feels slippery. However, I've heard that a slippery feel is better than a squeaky clean one, so I'm mentioning this hesitantly... It's probably a matter of personal preference. Can't use it in busy mornings, only in the evenings... The fragrance is a bit disappointing though.
