Cleansing foam for sensitive skin: HEEDA Jirisan Moist Charcoal

How irritating was it on sensitive skin?

I tried this while looking for a cleansing foam for sensitive skin. It produced a rich, soft lather, so it felt less burdensome while washing, and I did not experience stinging or redness afterward.

The product promotes a low-pH formula, and the original product information listed clinical results of 0.00 irritation for sensitive skin and 98% sunscreen cleansing efficacy. Skin reactions can vary from person to person, though.

What were the texture and lather like?

It had a soft, cream-type texture in a deep gray color. When mixed with water, it created fine, abundant foam that could be used with a skin-enveloping feel.

Did it leave my skin feeling tight after cleansing?

I usually feel tightness unless I apply moisturizer right after using cleansing foam, but this one left my skin feeling moisturized without dryness or tightness. It felt fresh rather than slippery.

How did the cleansing feel?

Because it contains charcoal, it felt as though oil and sebum were being washed away. It also felt like it cleansed thoroughly on days when I wore sunscreen, and my skin texture felt soft afterward.

Who might it suit?

• People looking for a cleansing experience with less tightness afterward
• People who prefer rich, soft foam
• People looking for a low-pH cleansing foam containing charcoal
• People who prefer vegan-certified products

For me, it felt like a product with a good balance between cleansing and a moisturized finish after washing. If you have sensitive skin, it is best to use it with your own skin condition in mind.
