What we found

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

Strengths

  • + Fragrance-free and essential-oil-free, with a maximum safety design score in its dossier
  • + Five ferments plus niacinamide, allantoin and panthenol behind a rich rice bran and camellia oil phase
  • + The 120 mL jumbo is the best size economy in the balm class ($0.208/mL; $0.177/mL on Subscribe & Save)
  • + US ingredient list confirmed on the brand's own Amazon listing and matched by a second database
  • + 400+ bought in the past month on the brand's Amazon listing

Worth knowing

  • - The headline enzyme (protease) is the last of 37 ingredients at an undisclosed level — treat it as a design detail, not an exfoliating treatment
  • - A minority of reviewers find the finish too oily or incomplete on heavy makeup, so a second cleanse may still be needed
  • - A different 25-ingredient version (with papain) circulates at one retailer — check the list on your tub against the US version
  • - No finished-product test with a named methodology; evidence sits on the floor
