Sensitive-skin charcoal foam: HEEDA Jirisan Hydrating Cleanser

Which product did I choose for washing off summer sunscreen?

After being outside on days with strong UV rays, I felt like sweat and dust were left on my skin. I often wear sunscreen and foundation, and I had also developed a few recent breakouts, so I reassessed my cleansing foam and tried HEEDA Jirisan Hydrating Charcoal Cleansing Foam.

What are the texture and scent like?

Unlike typical white foam, the formula squeezed from the tube had a black tint. It was described as containing fine charcoal powder, and I could also detect a subtle charcoal scent. I liked the scent more than I expected, but it could feel unfamiliar if you are sensitive to fragrance.

Did it leave tightness after washing sensitive skin?

I have sensitive skin and notice tightness or irritation right away. When I dampened my hands slightly, used a coin-sized amount, and rubbed it in, it produced a rich lather, and I did not notice any redness while using it. After washing, my skin felt smooth when I pressed it, and its texture seemed more refined.

What was disappointing?

I was satisfied with the moisturized feel after cleansing and the lather, but I took off one star because the charcoal scent may divide opinion depending on personal preference.

Who might like this feel?

• People concerned about washing off summer sunscreen and dust
