How did my skin feel after cleansing?
My skin tends to be sensitive, so when choosing a cleansing foam, I pay particular attention to post-wash tightness or redness. I tried this as a low-pH cleansing foam, and my skin felt less dry and tight after washing, with some moisture left behind.
My family members also tend to have sensitive skin, and when we used it together, they said it felt fine without irritation. Still, skin reactions vary by person, so it is best to check your own skin condition when trying it for the first time.
What were the foam and cleansing feel like?
Because it contains bamboo charcoal, I used it on days when I was concerned about dust and sebum after being out. Rather than feeling heavy like charcoal products can, it felt closer to gentle, and my face felt refreshed after cleansing.
The foam came up creamy and fine. For me, as someone who prefers the feel of soft, cushiony foam against my skin over a squeaky-clean finish, it felt less burdensome.
How did I use it in my morning and evening routine?
In the morning, I used it to lightly freshen up oil before skincare, and in the evening, I used it for cleansing on days when I wore makeup. I felt it was enough to finish without a separate second cleanse even in the evening, and I also liked that no lingering scent remained after washing.
If you are looking for a low-pH cleansing foam that leaves less tightness after washing and has soft foam, this was a useful texture to consider.
