Hyaluronic Acid Low pH Cleansing Foam

this cleanser is one of my favourites - this one’s more suited for dehydrated skin. it contains 17 types of amino acids, and 8 types of hyaluronic acid. it’s pretty gentle but i did notice if left on the skin too long after it’s dried my face is a little tight. so for people with combo skin this would be my top pick. it’s gentle and a little goes a long way and i love to pair it with the anua cleansing oil.

💦Isntree Hyaluronic Acid low pH cleansing foam (150ml)💦 💦 Ingredients: ☁️Alcohol free ☁️Vegan/cruelty free ☁️Fragrance free ☁️Pregnancy friendly 💦Texture : It has "cream" texture. Once you start massaging it on skin, it turns into foamy texture. It doesn't have any significant smell (fragrance free) but I got little bit scent which didn't bother me. 💦My thoughts : If you're looking for a low ph cleanser I highly recommend this! It has hydrating ingredients like Hyaluronic acid, Glycerin which work as humectant. So anyone with dehydrated skin gonna love this cleanser for the concern. It doesn't leave any tight feeling after washing which is a good point. You need little amount to make the foam. ☁️Hydrating ☁️Gentle enough for morning cleansing ☁️Doesn't give you squcky cleansing ☁️Tube lasts good amount of time ☁️No additional fragrance which is good for sensitive skin I enjoyed it a lot!

Matcha Hydrating Foam Cleanser

i personally love matcha in skincare - i also have their sunscreen and so far it’s been a great fit. this is so soothing because of its green tea, matcha, and ceramide components. it’s gentle and has a particularly nice green texture. i don’t know how to describe it but it’s so unique (i prefer it to krave beauty actually). it’s has little bits and pieces in the cream which provides some gentle physical exfoliation which is always welcome in my opinion.

A very good non-stripping cleanser. comes out like a paste with matcha leave flakes and has a medium foam when rubbed with water. Tested it with 2 PH strips and gives a PH of 5.0 to 5.5 which great. Perfect to use daily even twice daily. Does not leave you that tight feeling after washing. Rinses well without any residue Has a typical fragrance free plasticky scent to it which I personally dont mind

Safe Me. Relief Moisture Cleansing Foam

this cleanser has to have the most unique extracts in a cleanser. it contains raspberry, coconut, and lavender extracts, as well as hydrating ingredients. it has such a minimal ingredient list, a solid basic cleanser. it’s not too foamy and so gentle. definitely suited more towards dry/dehydrated skin but works for basically all skin types. my sensitive skin just eats this up.

Oily/Resilient

☁️ In the Korean beauty industry, this cleanser sets an award winning standard. With it's slightly low pH with a mild acidity of 5.5, it is still gentle for all skin types, including sensitive skin. It is also ideal in that this is closer to the natural pH of the skin on our face. This was formulated with EWG certified ingredients & you can tell a lot of thought went into creating this formulation for the ideal cleanser.  ☁️ The cleansing foam dispenses from the tube as a thick cream, but soon melts into a mild foam as you rub it into your wet skin. Once it is lathered & foamed up it leaves a cooling sensation as it cleanses deep into your pores. It doesn't leave my skin tight afterwards or strip my skin. In fact, it keeps it hydrated, feeling clean & refreshed.  ☁️ Prior to trying this cleanser I had a light breakout on my forehead and chin areas due to irritation from a different product I used. Within a few days of consistent use, this cleanser left my skin restored to it's usual non-irritated state. I was impressed by the results to say the least! ☁️ This cleanser went above & beyond my expectations. Now I am proud to say I have an award winning cleanser in my arsenal of skincare. I thoroughly recommend this cleanser for anyone wanting to tryout something new - anyone with both sensitive and resilient skin - anyone who wants a large quantity of cleanser for the value - anyone that wants cleansed, happy, healthy, hydrated skin.

Black Rice Moisture 5.5 Soft Cleansing Gel

this cleansing gel is so gentle to use in the morning. i’m a big fan of haruharu wonder products, i love the fact that they all contain black rice extract because it’s literally so hydrating. it’s a gel formulation so it’s more gentle than cleansing foams, and definitely suited for sensitive skin. it’s also incredibly soothing for acne-prone skin. a top pick in my opinion, will improve your skin without the need of strong active ingredients.

Centella Cleansing Foam

this cleanser is my latest and biggest obsession. it contains salicylic acid - which i usually tend to shy away from because it’s always formulated in a way that irritates my skin. but this cleanser has to be the most gentle one i’ve used especially since it contains an active ingredient. it’s great for all skin types, the centella soothes irritated, acne-prone, and sensitive skin all at once. without stripping the skin at all. i can’t believe i didn’t try this sooner. it has a nearly milky foamy texture suitable for up to 3 times a day. i even use it in the morning!

yes they all should be - the last one has an active in it so if your skin is really sensitive go for one of the others.
