Sulwhasoo Gentle Cleansing Foam EX 200ml – Gel-to-Foam Daily Cleanser, Hydrating Gentle Foam

Sulwhasoo Gentle Cleansing Foam EX is a gel-to-foam daily cleanser that lifts dirt and makeup while preserving skin moisture for a soft, radiant finish.

This 200ml cleanser converts from a smooth gel to a dense, cushiony foam that removes impurities from pores without stripping the skin. Formulated with botanical extracts such as duckweed and inner chestnut-shell extracts, its nonionic surfactants create long-lasting bubbles for a deep yet gentle cleanse. The texture and ingredients aim to leave skin feeling refreshed, comfortable, and visibly more luminous, suitable for all skin types.

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

The gel-to-foam transformation provides a lightweight application that quickly builds into rich lather, enabling effective cleansing with minimal friction. That soft, dense foam cushions the skin during massage, reducing tugging and over-cleansing while improving comfort and rinseability.

• Starts as a silky gel for easy spreading and even coverage
• Produces long-lasting, abundant foam for deeper pore cleaning
• Foam texture minimizes mechanical irritation during cleansing
• Rinses clean without leaving a tight, stripped feeling

Will it dry out sensitive or combination skin?

Instead of harsh surfactants, this formula uses gentle nonionic cleansing agents that preserve surface moisture. Botanical extracts and a moisture-retaining finish help maintain supple skin after rinsing, making it compatible with sensitive and combination complexions when used as directed.

• Nonionic components create a stable bubble structure and gentler cleanse
• Leaves a residual layer of moisture to prevent post-wash tightness
• Removes dead skin and impurities without overstimulating the skin barrier
• Recommended for all skin types, including sensitive and combination

What plant-based ingredients are included and what do they do?

The formula blends traditional Asian botanicals with modern actives to balance cleansing and skin comfort. Key extracts like duckweed and inner chestnut-shell concentrate help purify and soothe while supporting a smooth, refreshed feel after washing.

• Duckweed extract — helps purify and calm the skin surface
• Inner chestnut-shell extract — contributes to a soft, smooth finish
• Hydration-supporting components help retain moisture post-cleanse
• Nonionic surfactants deliver abundant foam with mild action

How should I use it for best results?

Use morning and evening as the first step in your skincare routine. Emulsify a small amount with water to create dense foam, massage gently across face, then rinse thoroughly. Follow with your preferred toner, serum, and moisturizer to lock in hydration and maximize radiance.

• Squeeze a pea-to-quarter-sized amount depending on desired foam
• Add water and rub between palms to produce cushiony lather
• Gently massage onto damp skin for 30–60 seconds, focusing on pores
• Rinse completely and continue with your multi-step routine

Who is this for: Sulwhasoo Gentle Cleansing Foam EX is ideal for anyone seeking a daily cleanser that balances effective pore cleansing with hydration—those who want a comfortable, non-drying wash that supports a radiant-looking complexion. It suits sensitive, normal, combination, and dry skin types and works well as the first step in multi-step Asian-inspired skincare regimens.
