Key actives
9Sodium Hyaluronate
Sodium Hyaluronate is a salt-form humectant from the hyaluronan family, smaller and faster-absorbing than the parent molecule, and a staple of Korean hydration formulas. It sits at this position on the ingredient list, which in Korean cosmetic labeling reflects concentration order rather than a fixed percentage.
10Hyaluronic Acid
Hyaluronic Acid is the water-binding polymer most Korean hydration formulas are built around. It sits at this position on the ingredient list, which in Korean cosmetic labeling reflects concentration order rather than a fixed percentage.
11Ascorbic Acid
Ascorbic Acid is a Vitamin C derivative added for its brightening, antioxidant role. It sits at this position on the ingredient list, which in Korean cosmetic labeling reflects concentration order rather than a fixed percentage.
17Camellia Sinensis Leaf Extract
Camellia Sinensis Leaf Extract is camellia extract, prized in Korean skincare for its skin-conditioning fatty acid content. It sits at this position on the ingredient list, which in Korean cosmetic labeling reflects concentration order rather than a fixed percentage.
20Artemisia Annua Extract
Artemisia Annua Extract is mugwort (Artemisia) extract, a calming botanical long used in Korean folk skincare and now a mainstay of soothing formulas. It sits at this position on the ingredient list, which in Korean cosmetic labeling reflects concentration order rather than a fixed percentage.

Round Lab For Men Birch Shaving Cleansing Foam 120ml
Is the For Men Birch Shaving Cleansing Foam on this page the Korean-market formula?
Yes. It is the release Round Lab makes for sale inside Korea. The same product name can carry a different ingredient list or a different size in an export version, and we list only the Korean one. Round Lab is one of the brands where we have documented a Korean formula and a US formula that genuinely differ.
Where does the For Men Birch Shaving Cleansing Foam sit in a routine?
It occupies the cleansing step. Build the routine around the step you are replacing rather than the brand you recognise: a cleanser, a hydrating toner, one serum and one moisturizer is a complete routine, and four products chosen carefully tell you more about your skin than ten bought at once.
What size is the For Men Birch Shaving Cleansing Foam?
120 ml. That is the size Round Lab sells in Korea for this product; it is the same size sold in Korea: we do not substitute an export format or a US size for the Korean one.
How does buying the For Men Birch Shaving Cleansing Foam here compare with a US retailer?
The unit sold here is the unit built for the Korean market, with the Korean barcode and batch code intact on the box. A US listing carrying the same product name may be the export version and rarely tells you which one it is sending.

Ingredient list read from incidecoder.com on 30 August 2026.
29 of 29 explained
- 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.
- 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.
- Hydrogenated Palm Acid fatty acid
- Hydrogenated Palm Acid is the saturated fatty acid fraction of palm oil. It thickens, stiffens a stick, and is often part of the soap base in a cleansing bar.
- Potassium Hydroxide pH adjuster
- Potassium Hydroxide is a strong base used in traces to raise a formula to its target pH. In a soap-style cleanser it also converts fatty acids into the surfactant that does the cleansing.
- 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.
- Adansonia Digitata Seed Extract (10,000Ppm) plant extract
- Baobab seed extract, from the African tree whose seed oil appears on the same lists. The extract is used as a conditioning, hydrating ingredient.
- Glyceryl Glucoside humectant
- Glyceryl Glucoside is glycerin bound to glucose, from the resurrection plant. It is a humectant that holds water in the outer layer of skin.
- Vincetoxicum Atratum Extract plant extract
- Baekmi, a traditional Korean herbal root extract. It is used as a conditioning plant extract, usually beside other Korean herbal ingredients.
- Sodium Hyaluronate humectant
- Sodium Hyaluronate is the salt of hyaluronic acid, and it is what most products labelled hyaluronic actually contain. The salt dissolves more readily and the molecule is smaller, so it sits in the outer layer of skin rather than only on top of it.
- Hyaluronic Acid humectant
- Hyaluronic Acid is a sugar chain the body already makes, and one gram of it can hold several litres of water. In a formula it is a humectant that pulls water to the surface of skin and holds it in a film, which is what makes skin look plumper while it is there.
- Ascorbic Acid antioxidant
- Ascorbic Acid is pure vitamin C, the most researched form and also the least stable: it needs a low pH and airtight packaging to stay active. It is an antioxidant used for the look of dullness and uneven tone.
- Diospyros Kaki Leaf Extract plant extract
- Diospyros Kaki is the persimmon tree. Its leaf extract carries tannins and vitamin C and is used as an antioxidant extract.
17 more explained
- Vitis Vinifera (Grape) Fruit Extract plant extract
- Grape Fruit Extract carries polyphenols and fruit acids. It is used as an antioxidant plant extract.
- 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.
- Coffea Arabica (Coffee) Seed Extract plant extract
- Coffee Seed Extract carries caffeine and chlorogenic acid. It is used as an antioxidant extract and, in eye and body formulas, for the look of puffiness.
- Polygonum Cuspidatum Root Extract plant extract
- Polygonum Cuspidatum is Japanese knotweed, the main commercial source of resveratrol. Its root extract is used as an antioxidant plant extract.
- Camellia Sinensis Leaf Extract plant extract
- Camellia Sinensis is the tea plant. Green tea leaf extract carries catechins, among the most studied plant antioxidants, and is used for the look of redness and oily shine.
- Castanea Crenata (Chestnut) Shell Extract plant extract
- Chestnut Shell Extract carries tannins and is used as an antioxidant plant extract, most often in formulas aimed at visible pores.
- Zanthoxylum Piperitum Fruit Extract plant extract
- Zanthoxylum Piperitum is Korean pepper. Its fruit extract is used as a conditioning plant extract and is often paired with pulsatilla and usnea in Korean formulas.
- Artemisia Annua Extract plant extract
- Artemisia Annua is sweet wormwood, a mugwort relative. Its extract is used in Korean formulas for the look of reactive skin.
- 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.
- Ethylhexylglycerin preservative booster
- Ethylhexylglycerin softens skin and boosts a preservative system, which is why it is nearly always sitting beside phenoxyethanol or 1,2-hexanediol. It also cuts down the odour bacteria produce, so it turns up in deodorising products.
- Anthemis Nobilis Flower Oil fragrance component
- Anthemis Nobilis is Roman chamomile. The flower oil is an essential oil, so it scents a formula as well as conditioning it, and essential oils are the class most likely to bother reactive skin.
- Pinus Sylvestris Leaf Oil fragrance component
- Scots Pine Leaf Oil is a conifer essential oil used to scent a formula.
- 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.
- Acrylates/C10-30 Alkyl Acrylate Crosspolymer thickener
- This is a carbomer relative with fatty side chains, so it thickens and stabilises an emulsion at the same time. It gives a light gel-cream body rather than a heavy one.
- Glyceryl Caprylate emulsifier
- Glyceryl Caprylate is a mild emulsifier that also makes a formula less hospitable to microbes, so it is often part of a preservative-free system.
- 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.
- Sodium Phytate chelator
- Sodium Phytate is a rice-derived chelator used in place of EDTA. It ties up trace metals so the formula stays stable and its colour and scent hold.

How it works
This is a shaving foam and a face wash in one tube, which is a men's line answering a real problem rather than repackaging one. Using a cleanser as the shaving medium means one product does the lather, and skin that reacts to a scented shaving cream never meets one. It sits at the start of the routine, and on a shaving day it replaces the wash rather than adding to it. Round Lab puts it in the Birch range, which is the brand's plainest hydrating line. Follow it with a toner and a moisturizer, because skin is at its most reactive straight after a blade.
How to use
- Use it on damp skin at the start of the routine, morning or evening.
- Work a short pump into a full lather in wet hands before it touches the face.
- On a shaving day lather it on, shave through it, then rinse with lukewarm water rather than hot.
- Once or twice a day. Follow with a toner and a moisturizer instead of leaving skin bare after a shave.
Worth knowing
- Patch test on the inner arm before first use on the face, especially if trying this brand or formula for the first time.
- Store away from direct sunlight and heat so the formula and any actives inside stay stable through its shelf life.

What professionals say
What professionals say
What skin-care professionals say about the key actives in this formula, quoted from the medical sources linked beside each.
Hyaluronic acid helps bind water to collagen, which traps water in the skin. That helps make the skin more plump and full-looking.

Additionally, it has been shown to improve dry skin in those with atopic dermatitis. It also can be good for those with acne-prone skin because of the antibacterial and anti-inflammatory benefits.
