Charcoal cleansing foam for tight, dry skin: HEEDA Jirisan

HEEDA Jirisan Moist Charcoal Hydrating Cleansing Foam is a low-pH facial cleanser I used morning and night in Korea during seasonal changes. Its thick black formula made soft, generous foam, and it left my skin feeling smooth and moisturized rather than squeaky-clean after washing.

Low-pH cleanser for dry skin: HEEDA Jirisan Charcoal Foam

HEEDA Jirisan Moisturizing Charcoal Cleansing Foam is a low-pH facial cleanser tested in Korea. With skin that had recently become closer to dry-combination, I found it cleansing yet fresh and moisturizing, with less tightness after washing; it also removed hand-swatch makeup fairly well.

Low-pH cleansing foam for sunscreen: HEEDA Charcoal Foam

HEEDA Jirisan Hydrating Charcoal Cleansing Foam is a low-pH facial cleanser I used morning and night for one week on sensitive combination skin in Korea. It left my skin feeling clean after sunscreen-only days without tightness or stinging, though I would pair it with a cleansing balm for heavier makeup; the 150ml size felt like about a month’s supply, so its mid-₩10,000 price felt average.

Sensitive-skin low-pH foaming cleanser: HEEDA Charcoal Foam

HEEDA Jirisan Moist Charcoal Foam Cleanser is a 150ml facial cleanser tested morning and night in Korea. On skin that can react to overly strong cleansing products, I found it foamed richly and left a smooth rather than squeaky-clean feel; heavy makeup may require a separate product.

Cleansing balm for dehydrated oily skin: HEEDA Charcoal Balm

HEEDA Jirisan Moist Charcoal Cleansing Balm is a Korean cleansing balm I have been using on my second jar for dehydrated oily skin. I rolled it over my face for about 30 seconds and emulsified it; it removed my makeup with little tightness afterward, though results can vary by skin condition and makeup.

Cleansing balm for dry skin: HEEDA Jirisan Moisturizing Charcoal

HEEDA Jirisan Moisturizing Charcoal Cleansing Balm is a Korean cleansing balm I tried after my face felt tight after washing in dry weather. It melted mascara and lipstick in a wrist test and left my skin feeling less tight after rinsing, though I would check suitability for individual skin concerns separately.
