This is a low pH, non-stripping gel cleanser from Beauty of Joseon, notable for its 24% Green Plum Fruit Water and Mung Bean Extract, designed to purify without tightness.

What It Is

The Beauty of Joseon Green Plum Refreshing Cleanser is a staple Korean daily gel cleanser, formulated to provide effective cleansing without compromising skin's barrier. Unlike many traditional foaming cleansers, this one maintains a mildly acidic pH (similar to Cosrx Low pH Good Morning Gel Cleanser), ensuring skin feels comfortable and hydrated, never stripped or dry. It addresses the need for a gentle yet thorough cleanse, removing impurities and light makeup, making it a reliable choice for various skin types seeking a balanced start to their routine.

Key Ingredients

  • Prunus Mume (Green Plum) Fruit Water (24%): A gentle AHA source, it aids in mild exfoliation and provides antioxidant benefits, contributing to smoother, clearer skin texture.
  • Vigna Radiata (Mung Bean) Seed Extract: Known for its purifying and soothing properties, this extract has been traditionally used in Korean skincare to help clarify the complexion.
  • Glycerin: A fundamental humectant, it draws moisture into the skin, preventing post-cleanse dryness and maintaining hydration.
  • Sodium Hyaluronate: A form of hyaluronic acid, it provides additional hydration, helping the skin retain moisture and feel supple.
  • Allantoin: A well-regarded soothing agent, allantoin helps calm irritation and promote skin healing, making the cleanser comfortable for sensitive skin.

The formulation prioritizes gentle, effective cleansing with a focus on humectants and botanical soothing agents. Notably absent are harsh sulfates, drying alcohols, and strong essential oils, which can often irritate or strip the skin. This cleanser maintains a skin-friendly, mildly acidic pH, typically in the range of 5.0-6.0.
