Finding a cleanser that doesn't leave your skin feeling tight, stripped, and irritated can be a daily struggle. This ultra-gentle gel cleanser is your solution for a comfortable, effective cleanse that respects your skin's natural balance.

• Skin Feel: Leaves skin feeling soft, hydrated, and calm—never tight or squeaky.
• Key Function: Removes daily impurities, excess oil, and sunscreen residue while maintaining the skin's protective barrier.
• Best For: All skin types, including dry, sensitive, and acne-prone skin that reacts to harsh cleansers.
• pH Level: Perfectly balanced at pH 5.5 to match the skin's natural acid mantle.

1. Cleanse with [THIS PRODUCT]: Lather a small amount with water and gently massage onto your face to remove impurities. Rinse thoroughly.
2. Hydrate (Optional): Follow with a hydrating toner or serum.
3. Protect (AM) / Moisturise (PM): Finish with your daily sunscreen in the morning or a suitable moisturiser at night.

Note: Already own a gentle cleanser? Finish that first to avoid waste (substitute, don’t stack).

A simple morning cleanse to start your day fresh.

• Step 1: [THIS PRODUCT] - A gentle cleanse to remove overnight buildup without stripping moisture.
• Step 2: Hydrating Toner/Serum (Optional) - To add a layer of hydration.
• Step 3: Sunscreen SPF 30+ - Always the most important final step to protect your skin.

The perfect second step in a double-cleansing routine to ensure your skin is perfectly clean before bed.

• Step 1: Oil Cleanser - To dissolve makeup, sunscreen, and sebum.
• Step 2: [THIS PRODUCT] - To wash away any remaining residue and impurities.
• Step 3: Toner/Serum/Moisturiser - Continue with the rest of your nighttime skincare routine.

• Amount: A pea-sized or nickel-sized amount.
• Frequency: Use once or twice daily, in the morning and/or evening.
• Method: Squeeze the gel onto wet palms and lather to create a soft foam. Gently massage over your entire face for 30-60 seconds, then rinse thoroughly with lukewarm water.

Double Cleansing: This is an ideal second cleanser. After massaging an oil cleanser onto your dry face and emulsifying with water, follow up with this gel cleanser to ensure a perfect, residue-free clean.

Contact Lens Wearers: While gentle, it's always best to remove contact lenses before washing your face to avoid any potential irritation.

• Daily Use: This cleanser is gentle enough for use every morning and evening as the foundation of your skincare routine. It effectively prepares your skin for any active ingredients (like exfoliants or retinoids) you use on specific nights.

• Immediately: Skin feels clean, soft, and comfortably hydrated, without any tightness or stripping.
• After 2-4 Weeks: You may notice less redness and irritation, especially if you were previously using a harsher cleanser. Your skin's moisture barrier feels more balanced and resilient.
• After 4-8+ Weeks: With a consistently respected skin barrier, your skin may appear calmer, clearer, and more balanced overall, allowing your other skincare products to work more effectively.

Why This, Not That: Prefer this gentle, pH 5.5 cleanser over harsh, high-pH soaps or scrubs. The common myth is that "squeaky clean" skin is truly clean. In reality, that tight feeling often signals a stripped, damaged skin barrier. A damaged barrier can lead to increased oil production, dehydration, and sensitivity, making skin concerns worse in the long run. This cleanser effectively cleans while respecting your skin's natural protective layer.

• Works Well With: Everything. As a gentle, pH-balanced wash-off product, it prepares the skin for any active ingredient, including retinoids, vitamin C, and chemical exfoliants (AHA/BHA), without conflict.
• Use Carefully With: N/A. Its gentle nature makes it universally compatible.
• Avoid On: Direct contact with open eyes.

• Excellent For: All skin types, particularly those with sensitive, dry, or dehydrated skin who find traditional cleansers stripping.
• Good For: Oily and combination skin, as it cleanses thoroughly without triggering the rebound oil production that harsh cleansers can cause.

• Dehydration and tightness after cleansing
• Skin sensitivity and redness
• Maintaining a healthy skin barrier
• Daily removal of impurities, sweat, and light makeup

Teens: This is an excellent introductory cleanser for teens, as it effectively cleanses without being harsh or stripping, which is crucial for young, often sensitive skin.

• Texture: A smooth, lightweight, clear gel.
• Lather: Creates a soft, fine, and gentle foam when mixed with water. It is not a high-foaming cleanser.
• Finish on Skin: Rinses clean, leaving skin feeling soft, refreshed, and hydrated, with no residue or tightness.
• pH: 5.5 (slightly acidic), which is optimal for supporting the skin's natural barrier.
• Fungal Acne (Malassezia) Suitability: Based on a review of its ingredients, this formula is considered suitable for those concerned with fungal acne.
• Comedogenicity: Low risk. The formula is free from heavy oils and known pore-clogging ingredients. Individual responses may vary.

• "It's not foaming enough." This is a low-foaming cleanser by design, as it uses gentle, coconut-derived surfactants instead of harsh sulfates. The soft lather is sufficient for effective cleansing. For a richer foam, use a foaming net or lather it thoroughly between very wet palms before applying to your face.
• "My skin doesn't feel 'squeaky clean'." That's a good thing! The "squeaky" feeling is a sign that your skin's protective oils have been stripped away, which can lead to a damaged barrier. This cleanser leaves your skin's healthy moisture intact.

This cleanser is perfectly suited for the Mauritian climate year-round.

• Humid Summer: It effectively removes sweat, excess sebum, and sunscreen without adding any heavy residue, leaving skin feeling fresh and balanced.
• Drier Winter / Air-Conditioned Environments: Its hydrating, non-stripping formula ensures your skin doesn't feel tight or become dehydrated, which is a common issue when moving between outdoor humidity and indoor air-conditioning.

Note: The following are aggregated sentiments from real users on platforms like Reddit, YesStyle, and Amazon. They are shared for informational purposes.

"This is my holy grail second cleanser. It's so gentle and leaves my dry, sensitive skin feeling clean but not stripped at all. It feels balanced and comfortable after every wash."
- Paraphrased from Reddit, r/AsianBeauty (2024)

"A solid, no-frills cleanser. The 5.5 pH is a big plus. It doesn't foam up a lot, but it cleanses well and my skin feels calm and hydrated after using it. I've repurchased it multiple times."
- Paraphrased from YesStyle review (2024)

Fair Caveat: "It's a very good gentle cleanser, but don't expect it to remove heavy makeup. If you wear waterproof mascara or long-wear foundation, you absolutely need an oil cleanser first. It's not powerful enough for that on its own."
- Paraphrased from Amazon customer review (2023)

Haruharu WONDER, meaning "every day wonder" in Korean, is a lifestyle skincare brand that fuses tradition with innovation. They focus on using at least 95% naturally derived, EWG-verified ingredients, with their star component being fermented black rice. By combining the antioxidant power of traditional ingredients with their patented Ultra Deep Technology for better absorption, Haruharu WONDER creates clean, effective, and honest skincare solutions for daily use.

• pH (5.5): A measure of acidity. The skin's natural surface has a slightly acidic pH of around 4.7-5.75. A pH 5.5 cleanser helps maintain this "acid mantle," which is crucial for a healthy skin barrier.
• Fermented Black Rice: Black rice that has undergone a fermentation process, which breaks down the molecules into smaller, more easily absorbed components and can increase the potency of its natural antioxidants.
• Surfactant: A cleansing agent. In this product, gentle, coconut-derived surfactants are used to lift dirt and oil without being harsh or stripping the skin.
• Non-Comedogenic: A term for products formulated in a way that they are not likely to cause pore blockages (comedones) and breakouts.

Our promise is to offer transparent, evidence-based information to help you make mindful choices for your skin, backed by our 100% authenticity guarantee.

1. Is this cleanser suitable for oily and acne-prone skin?
Yes, it's excellent for oily and acne-prone skin. Because it's so gentle and doesn't strip the skin, it helps prevent the "rebound effect" where skin produces even more oil to compensate for dryness, leading to a more balanced complexion over time.

2. Does it effectively remove all makeup?
It can remove light makeup and daily grime. However, for heavy or waterproof makeup and mineral-based sunscreen, it is highly recommended to use it as the second step of a double cleanse, following an oil-based cleanser.

3. Is it fungal acne (Malassezia) safe?
Based on its ingredient list, which is free of common fungal acne triggers like polysorbates and most oils/esters, it is considered FA-safe. As always, individual experiences can vary, so a patch test is recommended.

• Best For: Anyone seeking a primary or secondary cleanser that prioritizes skin health, hydration, and gentleness. It's a perfect starting point for beginners and a reliable staple for seasoned skincare users.
• Key Benefits: Maintains a healthy pH of 5.5, cleanses effectively without stripping moisture, and leaves skin feeling soft and calm.
• Keep in Mind: It produces a very soft, minimal lather, not a rich foam. It is not designed to be a heavy-duty makeup remover on its own.

• Coverage: Island-wide delivery (Mauritius).
• Processing & Timing: Orders process in 1–2 business days. Delivery typically takes 1–5 business days after partner pickup.
