Where does this foam cleanser go in my routine?

As your first step, morning and evening, on a face already wet with lukewarm water. Nothing goes under it: this foam cleanser 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 Methyl Diisopropyl Propionamide and not three changes at once.

Is this the Korean-market foam cleanser or a US version?

The Korean-market one, Methyl Diisopropyl Propionamide and all. We match this foam cleanser 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 Methyl Diisopropyl Propionamide?

Succinic Acid, Caffeine and Bisabolol. The order they are printed in on this foam cleanser's panel is the order on the box, so you can see where Methyl Diisopropyl Propionamide sits relative to them. Further down the same panel: Dipotassium Glycyrrhizate, Capryloyl Salicylic Acid and Hydrolyzed Extensin.

How it works

The Red Bean Collagen Pack To Foam Cleanser is a 100ml foam cleanser, used as your first step, morning and evening, on a face already wet with lukewarm water. The active it is built around is Methyl Diisopropyl Propionamide, named twenty-second on its own ingredient list. The same list carries Succinic Acid, Caffeine and Bisabolol, so the active is not the only thing on it worth naming. How much of the Methyl Diisopropyl Propionamide stays on the skin, and for how long, is decided by the foam cleanser format rather than by the list alone. This is the Original Korean Formula, the foam cleanser beplain sells in Korea, Methyl Diisopropyl Propionamide and all.

How to use

Wet your face, dispense a small amount into your palms or a foaming net, work it into a light lather, and massage over damp skin morning and night. Rinse thoroughly with lukewarm water and follow with a toner while skin is still a little damp.

1 of 3

38 of 38 explained

Glycerin humectant: Glycerin is the most used humectant in skincare. It draws water into the outer layer of skin and holds it there, and it is one of the very few ingredients whose hydrating effect is settled science rather than marketing. Higher amounts feel tacky, which is why it is usually blended.
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.
Sodium Cocoyl Isethionate surfactant: Sodium Cocoyl Isethionate is a coconut-derived surfactant that gives a dense, creamy foam while staying mild. It is the usual choice in syndet cleansing bars.
Sodium C14-16 Olefin Sulfonate surfactant: A strong anionic surfactant that foams heavily. It is a sulfate alternative in name but not in strength, and it is more common in shampoos than in facial cleansers.
Coconut Acid fatty acid: Coconut Acid is the mixed fatty acids of coconut oil. Combined with an alkali in the same formula it forms the soap that does the cleansing.
Kaolin absorbent: Kaolin is white clay, the mildest of the cosmetic clays. It absorbs oil and lifts loose debris from the surface without stripping, which is why it is the clay used on drier skin.
Sodium Isethionate surfactant: Sodium Isethionate is the mild cleansing salt behind syndet bars. It foams in hard water where soap would leave a scum.
Phaseolus Angularis Seed Powder absorbent: Adzuki bean ground to a powder. In a formula it is the physical grain of a scrub and an absorbent that takes up a little oil.
Hydroxypropyl Starch Phosphate thickener: Hydroxypropyl Starch Phosphate is a modified starch used to thicken and to take the sticky edge off a formula, leaving a powdery finish.
Potassium Cocoyl Glycinate surfactant: Potassium Cocoyl Glycinate is a coconut-and-glycine surfactant used in low-pH cleansers. It foams well and rinses without the squeaky tightness a soap leaves.
Cetearyl Alcohol fatty alcohol: Cetearyl Alcohol is a waxy solid, not the drying kind of alcohol. It is a blend of cetyl and stearyl alcohols used to thicken a cream and keep oil and water from separating, and it softens skin as it does so.
Dipropylene Glycol humectant: Dipropylene Glycol is a glycol used as a solvent and a light humectant. Its main job is keeping the rest of the formula dissolved and the texture fluid rather than adding hydration of its own.

26 more explained

Dextrin thickener: Dextrin is a starch fragment used to thicken and to give a formula a light, powdery finish. It is also a common carrier for powdered extracts.
Glyceryl Stearate emulsifier: Glyceryl Stearate is glycerin joined to stearic acid, and one of the most used emulsifiers in skincare. It holds oil and water together and thickens the result, and it softens skin at the same time.
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.
Theobroma Cacao (Cocoa) Extract plant extract: Cocoa Extract carries polyphenols and a little caffeine. It is used as an antioxidant plant extract and gives a faint warm tint.
Hydroxyacetophenone preservative booster: Hydroxyacetophenone is an antioxidant that also strengthens a preservative system, so a formula needs less traditional preservative. Korean formulas pair it with 1,2-hexanediol constantly.
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.
Caprylyl Glycol preservative booster: Caprylyl Glycol is a glycol that conditions skin and, more importantly, strengthens a preservative system so less of the traditional preservative is needed. It appears in most modern formulas built without parabens.
Disodium EDTA chelator: EDTA is a chelator: it locks up trace metal ions from water and packaging that would otherwise turn a formula cloudy, off-colour or rancid. It does nothing to skin and appears at a fraction of a percent.
Xanthan Gum thickener: Xanthan Gum is a polysaccharide made by fermenting sugar. It thickens a watery formula into a gel and holds the whole thing in suspension so nothing separates. Too much of it and a serum turns stringy, which is why it appears in fractions of a percent.
Methyl Diisopropyl Propionamide active: A synthetic cooling agent that gives the cool feeling of menthol without the mint smell. It is used where a formula wants the sensation but not the scent.
Phaseolus Angularis Seed Extract plant extract: Adzuki bean seed extract, the pat of Korean home skincare. It carries saponins and starches and is used as a conditioning, mildly cleansing extract.
Succinic Acid active: Succinic Acid is a small organic acid used for the look of blemish-prone skin and as a pH adjuster. It is far milder than an AHA at the levels used here.
Caffeine active: Caffeine constricts small blood vessels near the surface, which is why eye products use it for the look of puffiness and shadow. It is water soluble and works only while it is on the skin.
Alpha-Bisabolol active: Bisabolol is the main active fraction of chamomile oil, usually supplied from candeia wood. It is used for the look of redness in formulas for reactive skin, and it helps other ingredients absorb.
Capryloyl Salicylic Acid exfoliant: Capryloyl Salicylic Acid is salicylic acid with a fatty tail, sometimes sold as LHA. It stays nearer the surface than salicylic acid and works at a higher pH, so it exfoliates more evenly and more gently.
Dipotassium Glycyrrhizate active: Dipotassium Glycyrrhizate is a water-soluble salt derived from licorice root. It is the licorice fraction Korean formulas use for the look of redness, and it is far more stable in water than the whole extract.
Paeonia Suffruticosa Root Extract plant extract: Paeonia Suffruticosa is tree peony, a long-standing East Asian medicinal plant. Its root extract carries paeoniflorin and is used for the look of reddened skin.
Arnica Montana Flower Extract plant extract: Arnica flower extract, a long-standing plant ingredient for the look of bruised, marked skin. It carries sesquiterpene lactones and flavonoids.
Hydrolyzed Extensin protein: Extensin is a structural glycoprotein from plant cell walls. Hydrolysed, it is cut into fragments small enough to dissolve, and it works as a water-holding film on the surface.
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.
Equisetum Arvense Extract plant extract: Horsetail extract, the plant richest in plant-bound silica. It is used as a conditioning, mineral-bearing extract.
Lycopodium Clavatum Extract plant extract: Club moss extract, from a spore-bearing plant older than flowering plants. It is used as a conditioning extract.
Crocus Sativus Flower Extract plant extract: Saffron crocus flower extract, from the same flower the spice is picked from. It carries carotenoids and is used as a conditioning antioxidant extract.
Elettaria Cardamomum Seed Extract plant extract: Cardamom seed extract. It carries the spice's aromatic compounds and is used as a conditioning extract that contributes scent.
Foeniculum Vulgare (Fennel) Seed Extract plant extract: Fennel seed extract, carrying anethole and flavonoids. It is used as a conditioning extract with an anise-like scent.
Coriandrum Sativum Extract plant extract: Coriander extract. It carries the plant's aromatic compounds and antioxidants and is used as a conditioning extract.
