What we found

Based on how this product compares to others in the cleansers category, cross-referenced against retailer listings and market data.

Strengths

  • + Real formula beyond mung bean: confirmed centella asiatica, allantoin, and ceramide NP for soothing and barrier support in a cleanser
  • + Contains turmeric root extract, an antioxidant-positioned addition uncommon in most cleansing foams

Worth knowing

  • - Newer to Western retail availability than more established picks like COSRX
  • - Contains alcohol, confirmed in the real ingredient list; worth checking if you're sensitive to it in a cleanser

IngredientWhat it isWhat it does for skin
Mung bean extract and powderAn extract and powder from mung beans, traditional in Korean skincare.Commonly included for gentle cleansing and calming properties.
Centella asiatica extractA plant extract, also called Cica or tiger grass, long used in traditional medicine for wound healing.Calms redness and irritation and supports the skin barrier; some preclinical and limited clinical research suggests it may also support collagen production, though more rigorous long-term studies are still needed to confirm this.
AllantoinA soothing compound, naturally occurring in some plants and also made synthetically.Calms irritation and supports skin healing, often paired with other barrier-focused ingredients.
Sodium hyaluronateThe salt form of hyaluronic acid, commonly used for its water solubility and stability in formulas; molecular weight varies by product rather than being uniformly smaller.Draws and holds moisture the same way hyaluronic acid does; how easily it absorbs depends on the specific molecular weight used, which formulas don't always disclose.
Ceramide NPOne specific, well-studied type of ceramide used in skincare formulas.Reinforces the skin barrier and helps it retain moisture, the same core ceramide function.
Turmeric root extractAn extract from turmeric root, containing curcumin, a compound studied for antioxidant properties.Commonly included for antioxidant and mild brightening-adjacent benefit, though topical curcumin has less robust clinical backing than niacinamide or vitamin C.
