How it works

The Melting Cleanser is a 150ml gel cleanser, used as your first step, morning and evening, on skin wet with lukewarm water. The active it is built around is Niacinamide, named fifteenth on its own ingredient list. The same list carries Bioflavonoids, Camellia Japonica Flower Extract and Trifolium Pratense (Clover) Flower Extract, so the active is not the only thing on it worth naming. How much of the Niacinamide stays on the skin, and for how long, is decided by the gel cleanser format rather than by the list alone. This is the Original Korean Formula, the gel cleanser Dr. Melaxin sells in Korea, Niacinamide and all.

How to use

  1. Start on dry skin with dry hands, since water on the face first stops it doing its job.
  2. Massage for about a minute, working over the nose, jaw and hairline where sunscreen collects.
  3. Wet your fingers and keep massaging until it turns milky, then rinse fully with lukewarm water.
  4. Do not stop here, because a second wash with your usual cleanser is what clears the rest of the day.

Worth knowing

  • Patch test this gel cleanser on a small area and wait a day before using it more widely, especially with Niacinamide on the list.
  • This list names Fragrance, so skip it if fragrance components are something you avoid.

  • Niacinamide helps reduce the appearance of pores in a few ways. By strengthening the skin barrier and improving elasticity, pores appear less noticeable and more even.
