Key Benefits
Deep Pore Purification: Infused with 3,000ppm of Heartleaf Powder, it acts as a gentle physical exfoliant to clear deep-seated debris and dead skin cells from pores.
Targeted Acne Care: Contains Quercetinol (extracted from Heartleaf), which is highly effective at calming active inflammation and reducing redness associated with breakouts.
Sebum Regulation: Formulated with Anti-Sebum P (a patented blend of botanical extracts) to control excess oil production and prevent new blackheads from forming.
Salicylic Acid (BHA): Includes 0.5% BHA to chemically dissolve oil inside the pores, helping to prevent acne without being overly drying.
Triple Hyaluronic Acid: Unlike many deep cleansers, it includes three types of hyaluronic acid to ensure the skin remains hydrated and doesn't feel "squeaky clean" or stripped after washing.
Clinically Proven: It has been tested to reduce skin oiliness by up to 98% and clear pores by 99% after a single use.
How to Use
Dampen Skin: Start by splashing your face with lukewarm water.
Dispense: Squeeze a pea-sized amount (about 1–2cm) of the foam onto your wet palms.
Lather: Rub your hands together to create a rich, dense lather. You will notice small Heartleaf particles within the foam.
Massage: Apply the foam to your face and massage in circular motions for about 60 seconds, focusing on the T-zone (forehead, nose, and chin) where pores are most congested.
Rinse: Thoroughly rinse with lukewarm water until all residue is gone.
Follow Up: Pat dry with a clean towel and proceed with the Anua Heartleaf 77% Soothing Toner for best results.
Frequency: Safe for daily use, but if you have sensitive skin, start by using it once a day (preferably in the evening) to ensure your skin tolerates the BHA and Heartleaf powder well.
Key Performance Highlights
93% Redness Reduction: Significant visible results in calming irritated skin within 7 days.
Anti-Sebum P Complex: A patented herbal blend that specifically targets excess oil, which is a major concern in Korea’s humid climate.
Sensory Experience: The rich, "creamy cloud" texture and refreshing eucalyptus scent provide a luxurious, spa-like experience that fits into the Korean focus on skincare as a "sensorial reset".
Why Koreans Love This Product
Viral "Filter-Like" Results: Users frequently report a "smooth, filter-like finish" after just one wash, with clinical tests in Korea showing it can clear 99.5% of pore impurities and blackheads in a single use.
The "Quercetinol" Innovation: Koreans prioritize soothing (calming) as much as cleaning. This formula uses Quercetinol—a specialized antioxidant extracted from Heartleaf—which is known for quickly calming redness and inflammation, making it much gentler than typical acne cleansers.
Double Cleansing Synergy: It is a cult-favorite "second step" in the double-cleansing routine. It works perfectly after oil cleansers (like Anua’s viral Heartleaf Cleansing Oil) to remove any remaining sebaceous filaments and city dust without over-stripping.
"Soft on Outside, Hydrated Inside": A common praise in Korean reviews (known as #softonoutsidehydratedinside) is its ability to leave skin feeling "squeaky clean" yet bouncy and hydrated, thanks to its 8-layer Hyaluronic Acid Complex that prevents the tight feeling after washing.
Safe for "Troubled" Skin: As it is hypoallergenic and non-comedogenic, it is widely used by those with acne-prone and sensitive skin who need deep cleaning but want to avoid the "burning" or "stripping" sensation typical of Western foam cleansers.
