We all know that cleansing our face is very important and it should be part of our skincare regimen every single day. Sometimes using soap is not enough to remove all the dirt, make-up and other impurities on our face. So if you want to have a healthy, clear and radiant skin make sure to invest in a good cleanser.

Koreans are known for “Double-Cleansing” method because they believe that oil and water don’t really mix so you have to use an oil-based cleanser and water-based cleanser. Proper cleansing is important because it prevents product buildup or congestion, it reduces the size of your pores, it maintains the pH level of the skin and it ensures that your skin absorbs the skincare products that you are using.

Good news to everyone, Althea has a new product and it is good for all skin types so if you are looking for a good cleanser, you can try Althea Pore Purifying Serum Cleanser. It is a cleanser with a serum-like formula so it is a combination of water and oil in overlapping layers. It helps you remove makeup, dirt, and oil without drying out the skin and it balances the pH level of the skin.


Key Ingredients 

Mint leaf extract - Cools down the skin and soothes irritations
Jojoba seed oil - Deeply moisturizes any dryness without feeling heavy

Verdict: 

As part of Althea Angels, I received this product few weeks ago and tried it. I like the Althea Pore Purifying Serum Cleanser because the texture is not thick like oil so it is not sticky and it doesn’t leave oil residue on my face. It really cleans the face, the make-up really melts away and because of that I even use this to clean my face cushion. If you always put make-up on your face, this is a good cleanser for you, no need to buy make-up remover because this one can remove makeup and cleanse your face. It is perfect for your evening routine.
