innisfree Apple Seed Cleansing Foam: A Gentle Daily Wash With Jeju Apple Seed Extract

This is innisfree's entry-level cleansing foam built around apple seed extract harvested from the brand's Jeju Island sourcing network. innisfree has been running natural ingredient R&D on Jeju since 2000, and the apple seed line focuses on mild daily cleansing with gentle antioxidant support from apple polyphenols. At $16.13 for 150ml, this sits in the affordable daily cleanser tier, priced to compete with COSRX Good Morning Cleanser and Etude Soon Jung.

The formulation logic is simple: a low-pH foaming base, apple seed extract for antioxidants, and moisture humectants to keep skin from feeling stripped. This is not a treatment cleanser with salicylic acid or actives. It's a clean morning or PM second-cleanse option that respects the barrier. Good for users who don't want to overthink their cleanser choice and just need something that removes sunscreen and sebum without drying the face.

What It Does

Mild amino acid-derived surfactants lift away oil and residue while apple seed extract contributes polyphenolic antioxidants to the rinse-off step. The pH sits close to skin's natural range, around 5.5 to 6.0, which preserves the acid mantle. The result is skin that feels clean but not squeaky, making this a workable option even for combination and slightly dry types who usually fear foaming cleansers.

Who It's For

• Normal to combination skin: The foam texture handles sebum without overdoing it.
• Budget-conscious K-beauty shoppers: Sub-$20 cleansers from a credible brand.
• Morning-wash users: Light enough to use AM without drying tight feeling.
• innisfree loyalists: Works in-line with the Jeju ingredient ecosystem across their other steps.
• Travel or backup: The 150ml size fits luggage and lasts 2 to 3 months with twice-daily use.

How to Use

Use morning and night as your second cleanse after an oil cleanser, or as a standalone wash if your day doesn't involve heavy sunscreen and makeup. Dispense a dime-sized amount, emulsify between wet palms into a creamy foam, and massage over damp face for 30 to 45 seconds. Rinse with lukewarm water. Follow with toner immediately while skin is still damp.

For best results, pair with a proper first cleanse (oil or balm) in the evening. Foaming cleansers alone don't fully remove modern mineral sunscreens and long-wear makeup.

FAQ

Is this strong enough for oily skin?

It handles normal sebum production well, but heavy oily skin with active breakouts will want something with BHA or a stronger deep-clean cleanser (try COSRX Salicylic Acid Cleanser or Some By Mi 30 Days Miracle Cleansing Bar). This apple seed version is deliberately gentle.

Will it remove makeup?

Light makeup and sunscreen, yes. Long-wear foundation or waterproof formulas, no. Use an oil cleanser first for a complete double cleanse. This is your second-cleanse step, not a one-and-done.

How long does a 150ml tube last?

With twice-daily facial use, expect 2 to 3 months. A pea-sized amount is enough, so resist the temptation to use more.

Is it safe for sensitive skin?

Generally yes. The formula is low on irritants and the pH is skin-matched. Users with severe fragrance sensitivity may want to patch test because the apple scent is perceptible, though mild.

How does it compare to the Green Tea version?

Apple Seed focuses on mild cleansing with antioxidant support. Green Tea Cleansing Foam leans more hydrating with moisture retention. For oily to combo skin: Apple Seed. For dry to normal: Green Tea Foam.
