I've been using this for a few months now. It's VERY gentle and cleanses well (I don't wear makeup but do wear sunscreen). After using a cleanser that totally stripped and irritated my face, I feel that this has done wonders in restoring and balancing out my skin<3 Really recommend this.
It’s really hard to find a K-beauty cleanser that is formulated without sodium chloride or citric acid which irritate my sensitive skin. Came across this Abib facial cleanser and I love it. No irritation. It also soothes the redness in my face.

Bad formulation. Works fine for me skin since my skin is resistant to a lot of ingredients but still the formulation is just awful.
