[Pro Tips]

• As a Second Cleanser: This product is an ideal second step in a double-cleansing routine to ensure all traces of oil-based impurities, sunscreen, and makeup are removed.
• For Sensitive Skin: Its gentle, low-pH formula makes it an excellent choice when using strong actives like retinoids or exfoliating acids, as it helps maintain barrier health.

This is a gentle daily cleanser designed for consistent use.

• Daily Use: Use in both your AM and PM routines every day. It provides a stable, hydrating foundation that supports the use of other active ingredients you may have in your weekly schedule.

• Immediate: Skin feels clean, soft, and comfortably hydrated immediately after use. There is no feeling of tightness or stripping.
• 1-2 Weeks: With consistent use, you may notice a reduction in dehydration-related tightness throughout the day. Your skin's moisture balance begins to improve.
• 4-8+ Weeks: The skin barrier is healthier and more resilient. Skin feels consistently more hydrated and appears plumper.

[Why this gentle cleanser, not harsh, stripping soaps?]

Many believe that a "squeaky clean" feeling means their skin is truly clean. However, that tight, stripped feeling is a sign that your skin's natural protective barrier has been damaged. Harsh soaps and high-pH cleansers strip away essential lipids, leading to dehydration, irritation, and even increased oil production as your skin tries to compensate. This cleanser uses gentle, coconut-derived surfactants and maintains a low pH (5.0-6.0) to effectively cleanse while respecting and replenishing your skin's moisture barrier for long-term health.

As a gentle wash-off product, this cleanser is compatible with all skincare ingredients.

• Works Well With: Any active ingredient, including Retinoids, Vitamin C, AHAs, and BHAs. Its hydrating and non-stripping nature makes it an ideal preparatory step, ensuring your skin is clean yet calm before applying potent treatments.
• Use Carefully With: No major conflicts. The only consideration is to ensure it is thoroughly rinsed off before applying subsequent products.

• Excellent For: Normal, Dry, Dehydrated, and Sensitive skin types that require a cleanser that provides moisture rather than removes it.
• Good For: Combination skin, as it cleanses effectively without over-drying the drier areas.
• May Be Suitable For: Oily skin types, especially if they are dehydrated or find other cleansers too stripping. However, those with very oily or acne-prone skin might prefer the ROUND LAB 1025 Dokdo Cleanser for a slightly deeper clean.

• Dehydration and surface dryness
• Skin tightness after cleansing

[Is this cleanser good for removing heavy makeup?]

This is a gentle cleanser best suited for removing light makeup, daily grime, and sunscreen. For waterproof mascara, long-wear foundation, or heavy makeup, we strongly recommend using it as the second step of a double cleanse, following an oil-based cleanser.

[Is the Birch Juice Cleanser better than the Dokdo Cleanser?]

Neither is "better," they just serve different needs! The Birch Juice Cleanser is more focused on hydration and is ideal for normal to dry skin. The Dokdo Cleanser provides a slightly more clarifying clean, making it a favorite for normal to oily skin types.

[Will this cleanser strip my dry skin?]

No. It is specifically formulated with a low pH and hydrating ingredients like birch sap and hyaluronic acid to cleanse the skin while preserving its natural moisture barrier, preventing any tight or stripped feeling.
