## Key benefits

- Prunus mume (green plum) fruit water is second on the list, ahead of the surfactants, so the fruit water is doing real work, not sitting on top of the formula
- Sodium cocoyl isethionate and cocamidopropyl hydroxysultaine make this a sulfate-free, amphoteric wash rather than a stripping soap
- Mung bean (Phaseolus radiatus) seed extract supports a gentle lather without foaming hard
- Rice extract and houttuynia cordata close the list, the same hanbang pairing that runs through this brand's other formulas
- No fragrance, no parfum, no essential oil on the list

## How it works

A cleanser that leaves skin tight has usually stripped more than it needed to, so this one puts Prunus mume (green plum) fruit water second on the list, ahead of the isethionate surfactants that do the actual washing. Mung bean seed extract and a mild, sulfate-free surfactant system keep the lather soft rather than foaming hard, and rice extract and houttuynia cordata close the list on the calming side. It rinses to the same soft, non-tight finish the brand's other rice- and ginseng-led formulas are built around.

## How to use

1. Use it on its own in the morning, and in the evening as the second cleanse after an oil cleanser.
2. A coin sized amount worked into a lather in wet hands, then massaged over damp skin for about thirty seconds.
3. Rinse with lukewarm water and go on to your toner while skin is still slightly damp.
4. Do not work it into a dry face; a gel cleanser needs water to spread and to rinse away cleanly.

## FAQ

### What makes this cleanser gentler than a typical foaming face wash?

Sodium cocoyl isethionate and cocamidopropyl hydroxysultaine are the two surfactants on the list, both mild, amphoteric cleansing agents rather than a harsher sulfate. Prunus mume (green plum) fruit water sits second on the list, ahead of both surfactants, which is why the formula is described as building around the fruit water rather than around the wash base.

### Does this cleanser contain fragrance?

No parfum, fragrance, or essential oil appears anywhere on this cleanser's own ingredient list. That is part of why it is described as hypoallergenic, alongside its slightly acidic, barrier-friendly pH.

### What does the mung bean extract do in this formula?

Phaseolus radiatus (mung bean) seed extract appears on the list to support a gentle lather without the harder foam a sulfate surfactant produces. It works alongside the plum water rather than as the formula's main cleansing agent.

### Is this cleanser suitable for daily use?

The formula is built to be rinsed off without disrupting the skin's natural moisture barrier, using amphoteric surfactants rather than a stripping soap base. That gentler cleansing chemistry is why it is positioned for daily, twice-a-day use rather than as an occasional deep-clean step.

### How can I confirm this is the authentic Korean-market Beauty of Joseon formula, not a US reformulation?

Beauty of Joseon verifies its products by sourcing chain rather than a scan, because the brand has retired its own QR verification and is phasing out its authenticity seal. Your unit arrives with its Korean-market barcode and batch code intact, not swapped for an export label, and we publish exactly where we buy. That intact packaging is the record the brand itself points to now that its earlier scan-based check is gone.
