SAVE %
The viral solid-to-foam cleanser that transforms from mochi dough into a soft, milky lather.
Formulated with rice water, sweet almond powder, witch hazel, and 34 natural plant extracts. Low pH. Vegan. Cruelty-free.
The unique texture starts as a soft, solid balm. Massage it onto dry skin to melt away SPF, makeup, and buildup. Add water, and it transforms into a light, creamy foam — leaving skin clean, soft, and never stripped.
Who it's for
✔️ Dry, dehydrated, and sensitive skin (formulated to cleanse without stripping)
✔️ Anyone who wants a single-step cleanser that removes SPF and makeup
✔️ People who love unique, sensory skincare experiences
✔️ Combination oily and normal skin types
✔️ Vegan and cruelty-free skincare lovers
⚠️ Who it's NOT for
❌ Very sensitive skin that reacts to physical exfoliation — the sweet almond powder provides gentle but noticeable granular texture
❌ Daily use if you have reactive skin — like you, many users find this too harsh for twice-daily use
Texture & feel
Starts as a soft, solid, mochi-like balm. Massage onto skin, and it transforms into a creamy, milky foam. Contains fine granules from sweet almond powder for gentle physical exfoliation . Leaves skin feeling clean, soft, and hydrated — never tight or squeaky .
A few honest notes
-
Not for daily use for everyone — Multiple reviewers with sensitive skin reported that using this every day caused dryness, irritation, or burning . Your experience is shared. Use 2-4 times per week, or as your skin tolerates.
-
Contains fragrance — The formula includes fragrance and hexyl cinnamal (a common allergen) . If you're extremely sensitive to scent, patch test first or avoid.
-
Physical exfoliation is real — The sweet almond powder provides granular texture. For very reactive skin, this can feel harsh . Use gentle pressure and don't scrub.
-
Colour may change over time — One reviewer noted their cleanser turned brown after a few months . The brand says this is due to natural pigment and doesn't affect performance, but store in a cool, dry place.
-
Works as a single-step cleanse — Many users confirm this removes sunscreen and light makeup without a separate oil cleanser . Great for travel or minimal routines.
-
Can be used as a wash-off mask — Apply a thick layer, leave for 1-10 minutes, then lather and rinse for deeper treatment .
Where it fits in your routine
Can replace both oil and water cleanser in one step. Use as your single cleanser morning and/or evening.
The simple version
- Take a small amount (pea-sized) and rub lightly with water to create soft foam
- Gently massage onto damp skin in circular motions
- Rinse thoroughly with lukewarm water
-
For sensitive skin (important!)
- Do not use daily — 2-4 times per week is plenty. Your experience matches many reviewers
- Use gentle pressure — The sweet almond powder exfoliates; don't scrub
- Follow immediately with toner and moisturiser — One reviewer noted dryness around eyes within 1-2 minutes if they didn't apply skincare right away
-
For deeper treatment (as a mask)
- Apply a thicker layer to dry skin
- Leave for 1-10 minutes
- Add water to lather, then rinse
-
What not to do
- Don't use on broken, inflamed, or severely irritated skin
- Don't scrub aggressively — the powder provides physical exfoliation; gentle pressure is enough
- Don't skip patch testing if you have very sensitive skin
-
A note on patch testing
Before using this cleanser on your full face, patch test first. Apply a small amount behind your ear or along your jawline. Wait 24 hours. If you notice any redness, itching, burning, or irritation, do not use it on your face .
This is especially important if you have very sensitive skin, rosacea, or have reacted to fragranced products before .
A patch test takes 30 seconds. Dealing with a reaction takes weeks. Worth it.
