It's gentle and doesn't irritate my sensitive skin. When I use it as a second cleanse after soap, my face feels squeaky clean.
ConsThe downside is that my skin tends to feel dry quickly after cleansing...

Using it with a foam net doubles its cleansing power (though it lathers well even without one, so I usually use it without). - Sensitivity As someone with super sensitive skin, I love that it doesn't cause any blemishes. For those with sensitive and dry skin types, I recommend using it no more than 3 times a week. - Design Personally, I find its subtle ash color and minimalist square shape quite appealing.
Cons- Deep dryness Due to its powerful cleansing ability, it can cause some deep dryness. That's why I only use it up to 3 times a week. - Moisture You need to regularly manage the soap dish or holder to prevent water from pooling. If left in standing water, the soap becomes relatively weak and wears out faster. + I tried keeping it in the shower for about a month, and whether it's from the wet soap drying or not, cracks appeared all over the surface. The once minimalist soap becomes unsightly. I don't recommend keeping it in the shower.
Tip- A very personal tip After applying the rich lather from a foam net to your face, wait a few minutes, then use slightly dampened silk cocoons to gently exfoliate in circular motions. This seems like a great gift for friends interested in organic cosmetics and skincare.

If I had to mention a positive point, its cleansing effectiveness is quite good. It really gives that squeaky clean feeling. You can feel your skin getting thoroughly cleansed.
ConsI had high expectations, but unfortunately it didn't work well for me. First off, it had absolutely no effect on my pores. When buying a pore-focused soap, the main thing you're hoping for is a positive impact on your pores, right? But this product didn't deliver on that front, which was the biggest disappointment. Moreover, it even caused a tingling sensation when used, and left my skin feeling dry after washing. As someone with combination dehydrated skin, the experience was really unpleasant. So now I'm just using it to wash my feet. On the bright side, it does give a squeaky clean feeling compared to other cleansing products, so that's a plus.

I was incredibly stressed after suddenly developing milia, but without even visiting a dermatologist, this soap and changing my skincare routine made them disappear completely. It's truly my holy grail soap! I've tried all the popular natural soaps, but they only made my blemishes worse. Now, I stock up on this soap before I run out. My family uses it too. You don't even need to exfoliate separately if you use this soap effectively!
ConsIt might be a bit drying for those with dry skin.
TipChinoshio sells a separate foam net. Use that to lather up the soap for a rich, creamy foam! I use this soap 2-3 times a week. It's especially good for managing oiliness and blackheads in the T-zone. After cleansing, applying skincare products, and putting on makeup, your makeup really adheres well!

This allows for gentle exfoliation with minimal irritation! Even though I don't wear heavy makeup, this product alone seems to cleanse my skin thoroughly.
ConsThe cleansing power seems to drop significantly if the foam isn't as dense. As the soap bar gets smaller, you need to rub it longer to create a good lather. Sometimes when the foam doesn't form well, it feels like my makeup isn't fully removed, so I end up cleansing twice, which leaves my skin feeling very tight.
TipMake sure to use it with a foam net! The key is to create a meringue-like foam.

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.ProsHere's my review after using the Chinoshioya soap for over 6 months. I highly recommend it for those with excess sebum production! Let me describe my skin: extremely sensitive, combination dehydrated with oily tendencies, and in summer, my entire face becomes a sebum factory. After cleansing, my pores would expand, filling not just my nose but also my cheeks and chin with white sebum. My skin was so sensitive that most cleansing foams left it feeling tight and even caused blemishes. However, after using the Chinoshioya soap for about a week, the sebum on my cheeks and chin became virtually invisible! It's so gentle that it didn't cause any redness or tingling sensation on my face. Having used it for 4 years now, I can say that while it may not completely eliminate blackheads, it significantly reduces sebum production and even exfoliates dead skin cells. For me, it's been effective enough that I no longer need harsh peeling gels. It's also very mild, so even first-time users shouldn't have any issues with it.
ConsMany people ask if it's drying. To be honest, as someone with deep dryness, any soap or cleanser other than water leaves my skin feeling tight. The Chinoshioya soap is no exception. However, the reason I've been able to use it for 4 years is that it's significantly less drying than other products. That's why I keep coming back to it year after year. It's truly a cleansing product without any major drawbacks!
TipSome say it gets mushy quickly, but in our well-ventilated home, one bar lasts about 6 months! If it does get too soft, try cutting the soap into pieces and wrapping the unused portions in plastic wrap before storing them in the refrigerator. For exfoliation, leave the lather on for about 3 minutes, then rinse with lukewarm water. Gently massage your skin with your hands, and you'll see dead skin cells coming off like little noodles!

There are no good points. My face erupted with blemishes. Definitely not recommended for sensitive skin.
ConsAt first, I wasn't sure if this was the cause, but now my skin is completely wrecked. Dead skin cells are building up, my face has turned red and itchy, and I'm getting an alarming number of blemishes. Even after applying moisturizer, my skin feels dry. Despite having oily skin, it feels extremely tight as time passes. This is a disaster.
