Overview
This is a gel-type daily facial cleanser with a slightly acidic (low-pH) formulation designed to gently cleanse without stripping the skin’s moisture barrier.
Size: 100 ml variant.
It’s formulated with traditional Korean herbal-inspired ingredients such as plum (green plum / Prunus mume) water and mung bean seed extract, reflecting the brand’s Hanbang philosophy.
Key Benefits
Gentle cleansing + barrier-support: Because it’s low-pH and formulated to be non-stripping, it helps cleanse while respecting the skin’s natural acid mantle.
Refreshes and hydrates: The gel texture remains moist and doesn’t leave the skin feeling overly tight or dry after washing.
Helps with oil/water balance: Ingredients like mung bean extract help support moisture retention even while cleansing away oil/sebum and impurities.
Herbal plus mild exfoliation effect: The plum water component contains natural fruit acids and helps soften dead skin cells and renew texture, though this is mild compared to dedicated exfoliants.
Key Ingredients & Their Roles
Plum (Prunus mume) Water / Plum Extract: Rich in vitamins and natural acids, offering a mild exfoliating/hydrating boost.
Mung Bean Seed Extract (Phaseolus radiatus / Vigna radiata): Traditionally used as a cleansing/detoxifying botanical, supports clarity and moisture.
Gel Cleansing Base (mild surfactants): Ingredients such as sodium cocoyl isethionate, cocamidopropyl hydroxysultaine, etc, give a gentle lather and cleanse without harshness.
Supporting botanicals and humectants: Glycerin, rice extract, camellia leaf extract, etc for hydration and skin-soothing.
How to Use
Wet your hands and face with lukewarm water.
Dispense an appropriate amount of the cleanser into your hands, lather gently, and massage over your face (avoiding eyes) in circular motions.
Rinse thoroughly with lukewarm water and pat dry.
Follow with your regular toner/essence and moisturiser.
Use morning and/or evening as your water-based cleanser. If you wear makeup or sunscreen, consider doing a double cleanse (first oil/balm) then this gel cleanser.
