Charcoal cleansing duo for dry sensitive skin: HEEDA Jirisan
In short
HEEDA Jirisan Moist Charcoal Cleansing Duo Set is a Korean cleansing balm and foam duo for sensitive, dry skin. I used it on thin skin with cheek redness and inner dryness, and found the balm less tightening after the first cleanse and the foam richly lathering with a fresh, moisturized finish.

How did it feel on sensitive, dry skin?
Because I tend to have redness on both cheeks and inner dryness, tightness after cleansing was a concern on days when I reapplied sunscreen several times, even in summer. I tried the cleansing balm and foam in the HEEDA Jirisan Moist Charcoal Cleansing Duo Set as my first and second cleanse.
How gently did the cleansing balm remove makeup?
The 100 ml cleansing balm comes in a black container, with a built-in spatula in the lid that made it easy to scoop out. It felt almost fragrance-free, and the black formula containing charcoal was light and smooth.
I rolled it over a pigmented lipstick I often use, and the color blended and came off after a few rubs. I did not feel irritation while rolling it over my skin, and after the first cleanse, it left a moisturized finish rather than dryness.
What are the moisture cleansing foam's lather and finish like?
I used the 150 ml tube of Moisture Cleansing Foam after removing the seal on the new product. When I added water and lathered the grayish formula, it changed from a mud-pack-like first impression into dense, abundant foam.
It smelled like a fresh fruity scent or a subtle floral scent. Like the cleansing balm, it felt neither heavy nor rough, and after cleansing it finished with fresh moisture rather than slipperiness.
Was it suitable for days when I reapplied sunscreen often?
On summer days when I reapplied sunscreen, I cleansed first with the balm and finished with the foam. The product information noted a sunscreen-cleansing effect and the inclusion of hyaluronic acid and aqua ceramide; in my experience, my skin felt less easily tight after cleansing, making it a good daily double-cleansing combination for me.
