How it works
The Heartleaf 87 Low pH Deep Cleansing Water is a cleansing water, used on dry skin as the first evening cleanse, before any water. The plant extract it is built around is Houttuynia Cordata Extract, named sixth on its own ingredient list. The same list carries Tocopherol, Squalane and Panthenol, so the plant extract is not the only thing on it worth naming. How much of the Houttuynia Cordata Extract stays on the skin, and for how long, is decided by the cleansing water format rather than by the list alone. Anua sells this Houttuynia Cordata Extract cleansing water in Korea, and this is that version.

Key actives
Houttuynia Cordata Extractplant extract
Houttuynia Cordata is heartleaf, and it is one of the two or three anchor plants of Korean calming skincare. Its extract carries quercitrin and other flavonoids and is used for the look of redness and blemish-prone skin. The name on the box points at it, and it is named sixth on this cleansing water's own ingredient list.
Tocopherolantioxidant
Tocopherol is vitamin E. It is an oil-soluble antioxidant that protects the oils in a formula from going rancid and works on skin as an emollient, and it is regularly paired with vitamin C because each keeps the other going for longer. The panel names it twelfth on this cleansing water's list, beside Houttuynia Cordata Extract.
Squalaneemollient
Squalane is the stable, saturated version of squalene, a lipid human skin already makes. It is a light emollient that absorbs quickly, does not oxidise, and is one of the few oils widely considered safe for blemish-prone skin. It is named eleventh on this cleansing water's list, alongside Houttuynia Cordata Extract.
Panthenolhumectant
Panthenol is pro-vitamin B5: skin converts it to pantothenic acid. It is a humectant that holds water and leaves skin feeling soft and less tight, and it is one of the ingredients formulators reach for when a formula also contains something harsh. The panel names it seventh on this cleansing water's list, beside Houttuynia Cordata Extract.

Where does this cleansing water go in my routine?
On dry skin as the first evening cleanse, before any water. Nothing goes under it: this cleansing water is the step everything else in the routine lands on top of. If you are adding it to a routine you already like, give it a week on its own first, so what you see is the Houttuynia Cordata Extract and not three changes at once.
What else is on the list besides Houttuynia Cordata Extract?
Tocopherol, Squalane and Panthenol. The order they are printed in on this cleansing water's panel is the order on the box, so you can see where Houttuynia Cordata Extract sits relative to them. Houttuynia Cordata Extract itself is named sixth on it.

How to use
- Use the Heartleaf 87 Low pH Deep Cleansing Water on dry skin as the first evening cleanse, before any water.
- Saturate a cotton pad, hold it still for a few seconds on each area, then sweep once rather than scrubbing back and forth.
- Follow with a water-based cleanser and then your toner. A cleansing water is a first pass, not the whole wash.
- Once a day, in the evening. Do not leave it on as a leave-on step; it is formulated to be followed by a rinse.
Worth knowing
- Patch test this cleansing water on a small area and wait a day before using it more widely, especially with Houttuynia Cordata Extract on the list.
- Introduce this cleansing water on its own for the first week, so anything your skin does is traceable to the Houttuynia Cordata Extract rather than to three changes at once.

People with dry, flaky skin are more likely to see a benefit from using vitamin E because it enhances moisturization.

Its potential for skincare is promoted because of its anti-inflammatory (think blemishes, rashes, eczema) and hydrating properties.
