Key actives
Cocamidopropyl Betaine
Cocamidopropyl Betaine sits further down the list on the list, an amino acid derivative that acts as a humectant and helps the formula feel less tacky than glycerin alone as it sets on skin.
Propylene Glycol
Propylene Glycol is named on this product's own ingredient list, sitting at the very top on it as one of the formula's declared ingredients.
Lauric Acid
Lauric Acid is named on this product's own ingredient list, sitting near the top on it as one of the formula's declared ingredients.
Myristic Acid
Myristic Acid is named on this product's own ingredient list, sitting near the top on it as one of the formula's declared ingredients.
Potassium Hydroxide
Potassium Hydroxide is named on this product's own ingredient list, sitting near the top on it as one of the formula's declared ingredients.
How to use
- Use this cleansing oil PM (or AM if wearing sunscreen the night before), as the first cleanser in a double cleanse. Pat or smooth it on rather than rubbing, and give it a moment to settle before layering the next step.
Is this the Korean-market product or a US version?
The Korean-market one, Lauric Acid and all. We match this product to its Korean barcode before it reaches the shelf, which is the check that tells you which market release you are holding.
Does this product contain fragrance?
Yes. The ingredient list names Fragrance. It sits on the panel printed on this page, so you can read the position for yourself before you buy. If fragrance components are something you avoid, this product is not the one.
What else is on the list besides Lauric Acid?
Myristic Acid and Palmitic Acid. The order they are printed in on this product's panel is the order on the box, so you can see where Lauric Acid sits relative to them. Lauric Acid itself is named fourth on it.

How it works
The Deep Clean Bubble Foam is a 200ml product. The fatty acid it is built around is Lauric Acid, named fourth on its own ingredient list. The same list carries Myristic Acid and Palmitic Acid, so the fatty acid is not the only thing on it worth naming. How much of the Lauric Acid stays on the skin, and for how long, is decided by the product format rather than by the list alone. This is the Original Korean Formula, the product A'PIEU sells in Korea, Lauric Acid and all.
Worth knowing
- Patch test on the inner arm before applying to the face, as with any new skincare formula.
- Introduce a new active gradually into an existing routine rather than adding several new products at once.
