What it is
Pore-focused cream-to-foam cleanser formulated to remove daily buildup, excess oil, and sunscreen residue with a fresh rinse and minimal residue.
Who it's for
- Oily, combination, or congestion-prone skin seeking a deeper daily cleanse.
- Users who want a foaming texture without a harsh, squeaky feel.
- Those pairing with oil cleansers for a double-cleanse routine.
Key ingredients (INCI)
- Houttuynia Cordata (Heartleaf) Extract — calming botanical to keep the cleanse feeling balanced.
- Quercetinol blend — antioxidant support alongside the cleanse.
- Glycerin / Betaine — humectants to help offset dryness.
- Mild surfactant system (e.g., Cocamidopropyl Betaine) — foaming base to lift oil and impurities.
Free-from / texture
- Cream-to-fine foam texture; rinses clean without heavy film.
- Low fragrance profile; no essential oils in the base formula.
- No heavy oils or mineral oil; designed for a balanced finish.
How to use & order
- Use on damp skin; lather a pea-sized amount with water.
- Massage gently for ~20–30 seconds, focusing on T-zone and congested areas.
- Rinse with lukewarm water; follow with toner/serum/moisturizer and sunscreen (AM).
Conflicts & layering tips
- Pairs well as a second cleanse after oil/balm cleansers.
- If using strong actives (AHA/BHA/retinoids), keep contact time short to minimize dryness.
- Patch test if sensitive to botanical extracts.
Evidence & notes
- Foam cleansers lift oil and debris; humectants like glycerin can reduce tightness post-wash.
- Heartleaf and quercetinol are cosmetic botanicals; not drugs. Effects are supportive, not medical.
- Over-cleansing can irritate; adjust frequency based on skin response.
Safety
- For external use; avoid eyes. Rinse well if contact occurs.
- Patch test if reactive to botanical extracts.
- Discontinue and consult a professional if irritation persists.
