What we found
Based on how this product compares to others in the cleansers category, cross-referenced against retailer listings and market data.
Strengths
- + The 'amino' name is the formula: sodium cocoyl alaninate leads a seven-surfactant mild bench with amphoteric, taurate, glycinate and isethionate support — no sulfates
- + Fragrance-free and essential-oil-free in both ingredient-list sources
- + Brand-stated pH range of 5.0–6.0 — an actual disclosure, not just a 'low pH' badge
- + Four established channels (Olive Young US, YesStyle, iHerb, StyleKorean) in a tight $13.52–16.15 price band
Worth knowing
- - Small 100 mL tube — for twice-daily use the monthly cost lands like a bigger bottle's
- - Entry-level finished-product evidence: the brand's 'clinically proven for sensitive skin' wording has no published study behind it, so we don't repeat it
- - Two ingredient lists circulate with the botanical extracts in different positions (minor Version Flag) — the cleansing system is identical in both
- - One detailed reviewer found it drying with mild cheek irritation, against the broader non-drying pattern
