Why it works

What this formula actually does

Built around cica (centella) + 5-ceramide complex + amino-acid surfactants and screened ingredient by ingredient — here is what earns its place.

01

Sulfate-free, low-pH cleanse

Mild amino-acid surfactants (cocoyl glycinate, lauroyl glutamate) clean gently at a weakly-acidic pH without harsh sulfates, so skin does not feel tight.

02

Cica + ceramide soothing

A big centella (cica) complex with madecassoside plus five ceramides, beta-glucan and hyaluronic acid calm and support the barrier as you cleanse.

03

Clean, non-tight finish

A #1-ranked soothing foam cleanser on Hwahae and 2026 Hwahae Global Pick winner, reviewers rate it moisturizing, low-pH and no-residue.

Our take

A gentle daily cleanser that keeps the barrier happy. Sulfate-free amino-acid surfactants clean at a weakly-acidic pH without that tight, squeaky feeling, while a heavy dose of centella (cica), five ceramides, beta-glucan and hyaluronic acid soothe and hydrate. Best as an everyday morning-and-night face wash for sensitive, dry or easily-tight skin; it is a #1-ranked soothing foam cleanser on Hwahae and 2026 Hwahae Global Pick winner. It is not a standalone makeup remover, double-cleanse for heavy makeup, and it needs enough water to lather well.

Worth knowing

  • Not a heavy makeup removerAs a gentle daily cleanser it will not remove waterproof or heavy makeup on its own, use an oil cleanser first for a double cleanse.
  • Lather needs waterThe most common note is that the foam is not super rich, work it up with plenty of water; a few also note a mild mint-herbal scent.
