How it works
The Mung Bean Cleansing Oil is a cleansing oil, used as the first of two evening cleanses, on dry skin and dry hands, before any water reaches the face. The plant extract it is built around is Vigna Radiata Seed Extract, named twelfth on its own ingredient list. The same list carries Allantoin, Gardenia Florida Fruit Extract and Carthamus Tinctorius (Safflower) Flower Extract, so the plant extract is not the only thing on it worth naming. How much of the Vigna Radiata Seed Extract stays on the skin, and for how long, is decided by the cleansing oil format rather than by the list alone. This is the Original Korean Formula, the cleansing oil beplain sells in Korea, Vigna Radiata Seed Extract and all.

Where does this cleansing oil go in my routine?
As the first of two evening cleanses, on dry skin and dry hands, before any water reaches the face. Nothing goes under it: this cleansing oil 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 Vigna Radiata Seed Extract and not three changes at once.
Is this the Korean-market cleansing oil or a US version?
The Korean-market one, Vigna Radiata Seed Extract and all. We match this cleansing oil to its Korean barcode before it reaches the shelf, which is the check that tells you which market release you are holding.
What else is on the list besides Vigna Radiata Seed Extract?
Allantoin, Gardenia Florida Fruit Extract and Carthamus Tinctorius (Safflower) Flower Extract. The order they are printed in on this cleansing oil's panel is the order on the box, so you can see where Vigna Radiata Seed Extract sits relative to them. Further down the same panel: Phaseolus Radiatus (Mung Bean) Sprout Extract, Cetyl Ethylhexanoate and Camellia Sinensis Seed Oil.

Ingredient list read from incidecoder.com on 30 August 2026.
15 of 17 explained
- Ethylhexyl Palmitate emollient
- Ethylhexyl Palmitate is a palm-derived ester used as a light emollient and a solvent for pigment. It gives a smooth, non-greasy slip.
- Cetyl Ethylhexanoate emollient
- Cetyl Ethylhexanoate is a synthetic ester used as a dry-feeling emollient. It spreads easily, leaves a silky rather than oily finish, and helps disperse pigments and UV filters evenly.
- Sorbeth-30 Tetraoleate emulsifier
- Sorbeth-30 Tetraoleate is an emulsifier used in cleansing oils so the oil can be rinsed off with water rather than wiped away.
- Sorbitan Sesquioleate emulsifier
- Sorbitan Sesquioleate is a water-in-oil emulsifier and pigment disperser. Cleansing oils use it so water can be worked into the oil at the rinse.
- Camellia Sinensis Seed Oil emollient
- Oil pressed from tea seeds. It is high in oleic acid, carries some of the antioxidants of the tea plant, and is lighter in feel than most oleic oils.
- Water solvent
- Water is the base almost every serum, toner and cream is built on. It dissolves the water-loving ingredients and sets how light the finished texture feels. On an INCI list it is usually first, which only means it is the largest single ingredient by weight.
- Butylene Glycol humectant
- Butylene Glycol is a small glycol that does two jobs at once: it holds water in the top layer of skin and it dissolves plant extracts and actives that plain water cannot. It also thins a formula, which is why watery Korean essences lean on it.
- Polyglyceryl-3 Polyricinoleate emulsifier
- Polyglyceryl-3 Polyricinoleate is a castor-derived emulsifier that lets a formula hold a high water content inside an oil or wax base.
- Gardenia Florida Fruit Extract plant extract
- Gardenia Fruit Extract is the traditional East Asian yellow dye plant. In skincare it is used as an antioxidant extract, and it can tint a formula.
- Carthamus Tinctorius (Safflower) Flower Extract plant extract
- Safflower Flower Extract is a traditional East Asian dye and skincare plant. It is used as a conditioning antioxidant extract and can tint a formula.
- 1,2-Hexanediol humectant
- 1,2-Hexanediol is a glycol used for two reasons: it holds water like glycerin, and it makes a formula harder for microbes to live in, so less traditional preservative is needed. Korean formulas use it heavily for that second reason.
- Phaseolus Radiatus Seed Extract (10Ppm) plant extract
- Mung bean seed extract, the nokdu of Korean cleansing powders. It carries starches, proteins and saponins and is used as a conditioning, mildly cleansing extract.
3 more explained
- Phaseolus Radiatus Sprout Extract (10Ppm) plant extract
- Mung bean sprout extract. Sprouting raises the free amino acid and vitamin content over the dry bean, and the extract is used as a conditioning botanical.
- Panthenol humectant
- 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.
- Allantoin active
- Allantoin is a comfrey-derived compound used to condition skin and soften the outer layer so it feels smoother. It is one of the standard additions to a formula built for easily irritated skin.

How to use
- Use the Mung Bean Cleansing Oil as the first of two evening cleanses, on dry skin and dry hands, before any water reaches the face.
- Dispense a proper amount onto dry hands and gently massage onto the face for around 30 seconds. Rinse with lukewarm water thoroughly afterwards.
- Add a little water and keep massaging until it turns milky, rinse, then follow with a water-based cleanser. That second wash is what takes the oil off.
- Once a day, in the evening. Do not use it as your morning cleanse; there is nothing on a face at seven in the morning that needs an oil to lift it.
Worth knowing
- Applied to already-wet skin it will not emulsify properly, so start on completely dry skin and hands.
- Keep it away from the eyes; if oil gets in, rinse with water rather than rubbing.
