Finding a cleanser that removes impurities without disrupting your skin's natural moisture can feel like a constant battle. The Green Plum Refreshing Cleanser is a slightly acidic (low pH) gel formula designed to respect your skin's delicate barrier.

• Texture: Lightweight, smooth gel that lathers into a soft foam.
• Finish: Leaves skin feeling clean, soft, and hydrated—never tight or dry.
• Best For: Normal, Combination, Oily, and Sensitive Skin Types.
• Key Ingredients: Plum Water (24%) and Mung Bean Seed Extract (3%) work to gently exfoliate, soothe, and moisturize.

1. Cleanser: Use this Green Plum Cleanser on a damp face.
2. Moisturiser (PM): Follow with a moisturiser to lock in hydration.
3. Sunscreen (AM): Always finish your morning routine with SPF 30+ to protect your skin.

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

A simple morning routine to start your day fresh.

• Step 1: [THIS PRODUCT] Beauty of Joseon Green Plum Refreshing Cleanser
• Step 2 (Optional): Hydrating Toner (to prep and add a layer of moisture)
• Step 3: Targeted Serum (e.g., Vitamin C for antioxidant protection)
• Step 4: Sunscreen SPF 30+ (An absolute must in Mauritius)

Wait times: Allow about 30-60 seconds between watery layers for absorption before applying your sunscreen.

A routine to cleanse the day away and support your skin's overnight repair.

• Step 1 (Double Cleanse): Start with an oil-based cleanser to melt away makeup and sunscreen, then follow with [THIS PRODUCT] Beauty of Joseon Green Plum Refreshing Cleanser as your second step for a deep clean.
• Step 2: Toner/Essence/Serum (Apply your treatment products)
• Step 3: Moisturiser (to seal in all the goodness)

Texture Rule: Always apply products from the thinnest consistency to the thickest.

Daily Use — AM & PM:

• Amount: A pea-sized amount is sufficient.
• Method: Dispense into wet hands and lather into a soft foam. Gently massage over your entire face, avoiding the immediate eye area. Rinse thoroughly with lukewarm water.
• Frequency: Use morning and night. In the PM, it's best used as the second step of a double cleanse if you are removing makeup or water-resistant sunscreen.

If-This / Then-That:

• If you have an oily T-zone: This cleanser will help balance sebum without over-drying your cheeks.
• If your skin feels sensitive: Its low pH formula helps maintain a healthy skin barrier, reducing the chance of irritation.
• If you wear heavy makeup: Use an oil cleanser first. This cleanser alone may not be sufficient to remove waterproof or long-wear formulas.

Safety: Avoid direct contact with eyes. For external use only. Discontinue use if irritation occurs. Suitable for teens looking for a gentle, effective first cleanser.

• Immediate: Skin feels clean, soft, and refreshed without any tightness or stripping.
• 2–4 Weeks: With consistent use, your skin's moisture barrier should feel more balanced. You may notice less post-cleanse dryness and a reduction in excess oiliness.
• 4–8+ Weeks: Skin appears healthier and calmer. The gentle formula helps maintain a stable, well-hydrated skin barrier, which is the foundation for clear, glowing skin.

Why use a low-pH gel cleanser, not a harsh scrub or soap?

Many believe that a "squeaky clean" feeling means skin is truly clean. In reality, that tight, squeaky sensation is a sign that your skin's protective acid mantle (its natural barrier) has been stripped. Harsh scrubs and high-pH soaps can damage this barrier, leading to dryness, irritation, and even more breakouts. This low-pH (pH 5.5-6.5) gel cleanser gently removes impurities while respecting your skin's natural balance, keeping it healthy and resilient.

• Works With: As a gentle foundational step, this cleanser is compatible with virtually all other skincare ingredients, including actives like Vitamin C, Retinoids, and exfoliating acids (AHA/BHA). It creates a clean and balanced canvas for the rest of your routine.
• Use Carefully: No major conflicts. However, if your skin barrier is severely compromised and even gentle products sting, focus on a minimal routine (this cleanser + a barrier repair cream) until your skin has recovered.
• Avoid On: Not intended for removing heavy, waterproof eye makeup. Use a dedicated eye makeup remover for that area to avoid tugging and irritation.

• Excellent For: Normal, Combination, Oily, Sensitive, Acne-Prone skin.
• Good For: Mature skin that needs a gentle cleanse without stripping natural lipids.
• Use with Caution: Very dry skin types might find they need to follow up immediately with rich, hydrating layers, as this cleanser does not leave behind an emollient residue.

• Maintaining a healthy skin barrier
• Removing excess sebum and surface impurities
• Reducing tightness and dryness after cleansing
• Providing a gentle cleanse for sensitive or reactive skin

Who should use this: Ideal for individuals of all ages, including teens, seeking a gentle daily cleanser that supports a healthy skin barrier.

Who should use with caution: While hypoallergenic, anyone with known allergies to specific plant extracts (e.g., mung bean, rice) should perform a patch test.

Patch Test Protocol:

1. Apply a pea-sized amount to a small, clean area of skin, such as behind your ear or on your jawline.
2. Wait 24 hours to observe any signs of irritation.
3. If redness, itching, or burning occurs, discontinue use.
4. If no reaction is observed, the product is likely safe for you to use.

• Texture: A smooth, lightweight gel.
• Scent: Virtually unscented, with a faint natural aroma from its ingredients. Intensity: 0.5/5.
• Finish on Skin: Rinses clean, leaving skin feeling soft, hydrated, and comfortable—not stripped or tight.
• pH: Approximately 5.5 - 6.5, which is slightly acidic and ideal for maintaining the skin's natural pH balance.
• Fungal Acne (Malassezia) Compatibility: This formula appears to be free of common fungal acne triggers like esters and polysorbates. However, individual responses can vary.

• Issue: My skin doesn't feel completely clean after use.
  Solution: If you are wearing sunscreen or makeup, make sure you are double cleansing. Use an oil-based cleanser first to break down these products, and then use the Green Plum Cleanser as your second step for a thorough clean.
• Issue: It's not removing my waterproof mascara.
  Solution: This is a gentle facial cleanser, not a dedicated makeup remover. For waterproof or long-wear eye and lip makeup, use a separate biphasic (oil and water) remover before cleansing your face to avoid harsh rubbing on delicate areas.

This cleanser is an excellent choice for the Mauritian climate.

• Humid Summer: The light gel texture is refreshing and effectively removes sweat, excess sebum, and sunscreen without adding any heaviness to the skin.
• Drier Winter/AC Exposure: Its non-stripping, hydrating formula ensures that your skin doesn't become dehydrated, even when moving between the humid outdoors and dry, air-conditioned indoors. It helps maintain a healthy moisture balance year-round.

At Adilsons, we are committed to providing you with authentic, high-quality K-beauty products. We carefully curate our selection based on efficacy, safety, and suitability for the Mauritian climate. Our promise is one of truth, transparency, and a dedication to your skin's long-term health.

1. Why is a low pH cleanser important?
A low pH cleanser helps to maintain your skin's natural acid mantle, a protective barrier that keeps moisture in and bacteria out. High pH (alkaline) cleansers can strip this barrier, leading to dryness, irritation, and breakouts. This cleanser's slightly acidic formula cleanses effectively while keeping your barrier healthy.

2. Can I use this cleanser to remove makeup?
It can remove light, everyday makeup. However, for heavy, waterproof, or long-lasting makeup and sunscreen, it is highly recommended to use it as the second step in a double cleansing routine, after an oil-based cleanser, for a thorough clean.

3. Is it suitable for dry skin?
Yes, its gentle, non-stripping formula is suitable for dry skin. However, because it's a gel that rinses completely clean, those with very dry skin should be sure to follow up immediately with hydrating toners, serums, and a rich moisturizer to replenish moisture.

Best For: Individuals with normal, combination, oily, or sensitive skin looking for a daily cleanser that cleanses effectively without causing dryness or irritation.
