Sulwhasoo Gentle Cleansing Foam EX daily gel-to-foam facial cleanser 200ml — hydrating, rich foam for soft radiant skin

Designed around botanical extracts and nonionic surfactants, this 200ml cleanser transforms from a cushiony gel into abundant foam that deep-cleans pores without leaving skin tight or stripped. Inspired by Asian herbal wisdom and modern formulation science, the formula includes duckweed and chestnut inner-shell extracts to help maintain a hydrated, comfortable skin feel immediately after rinsing.

How does the gel-to-foam texture benefit my cleansing routine?

The initial gel base spreads easily across the face to dissolve oil-based impurities, then whips into a rich foam that lifts dirt and residual makeup from pores. Because of its long-lasting bubble structure, you get a dense lather that reaches creases and the T-zone without aggressive rubbing.

• Gel base melts sebum and makeup for efficient first-step cleansing.
• Nonionic surfactants create stable, cushiony foam for gentle mechanical lift.
• Abundant lather reduces the need to scrub, minimizing irritation.

Will it leave my skin dry or tight after washing?

This cleanser is formulated to leave a residual moisture layer so skin feels soft rather than pulled. Botanical humectants and conditioning components help retain surface hydration while removing impurities, supporting a smooth base for serums and moisturizers.

• Hydration-supporting ingredients maintain suppleness after rinsing.
• Gentle exfoliation of dead skin cells without overstimulation.
• Balanced surfactant system avoids over-stripping natural oils.

What skin types can use Sulwhasoo Gentle Cleansing Foam EX?

The formula is suitable for all skin types, including normal, combination, and dry skin, because it focuses on cleansing while preserving moisture. Those with oily or congested skin will appreciate the deep-pore cleaning action, while sensitive or dry skin types benefit from its mild, protective lather.

• Safe for everyday use on normal and combination skin.
• Hydration-focused profile reduces tightness for drier skin.
• Non-aggressive cleansing supports reactive or easily irritated skin.

What botanical ingredients are included and what do they do?

The formula features plant-derived extracts selected for balancing and conditioning effects. Duckweed helps the overall cleansing matrix, while extracts from chestnut inner shells contribute to a refreshed, smooth finish without harsh stripping.

• Duckweed extract contributes botanical support to the formula’s cleansing performance.
• Chestnut inner-shell extracts help refine texture and leave a relaxed skin feel.
• Nonionic cleansing components stabilize foam and protect the skin barrier.

Who is this for? Sulwhasoo Gentle Cleansing Foam EX is ideal for shoppers seeking a daily cleanser that removes oil, makeup, and pore impurities while keeping skin hydrated and comfortable. It suits users who prefer a luxurious, foaming experience but want to avoid formulas that strip natural moisture. If you use serums and treatments after cleansing, this gentle yet thorough wash provides a clean, soft base for your next skincare steps.
