How it works
Round Lab Pine Calming Cica Cleanser is built as a foam cleanser, so its texture and finish are designed around one specific place in a routine rather than several. The formula's own ingredient list carries Hyaluronic Acid, Sodium Hyaluronate, Hydrolyzed Hyaluronic Acid among its named ingredients, placed at a level consistent with a foam cleanser rather than a spot treatment. The texture is built for use first, as your cleansing step, before any leave-on product, which is why it behaves differently on skin than a product meant for a different point in a routine. This is the Korean-market formula of the pine calming cica cleanser, the version sold on shelves in Korea rather than a formula reworked for a different market.
How to use
- Use the Pine Calming Cica Cleanser as your first step, morning and evening, on a face already wet with lukewarm water.
- A short pump or a pea of product is enough. Work it into a lather in wet hands for about twenty seconds before it touches the face.
- Rinse with lukewarm water and go straight on to your toner while skin is still damp, because a humectant layer has more to hold on to on a damp face.
- Twice a day is the ceiling. Do not follow it with a second cleanse in the morning, when there is no sunscreen or makeup left on the face to remove.

Is this the same formula sold in Korea, or a version made for the US market?
This is the Korean-market formula, the same one sold on shelves in Korea, not a separate version reformulated for US retail. The pack you open matches what a shopper in Seoul buys.
Where does this step go in a routine?
It belongs first, as your cleansing step, before any leave-on product. Placing it earlier or later than that changes how it feels going on and how well the steps after it absorb, so keeping it in that order is worth doing even on a simplified routine.
Can I use this if my skin runs sensitive?
This foam cleanser is formulated with skin types like normal skin, combination skin in mind, but any new product is worth a patch test first if your skin reacts easily. A short patch test on the inside of your arm or behind an ear is worth doing with any new product before it goes on your face, and that goes for sensitive skin most of all.
How long before I will know if this is right for my skin?
Give it a full week or two of consistent use before judging, since a single use rarely tells you much either way. Watch for how skin feels rather than for any specific number, and stop use if you notice ongoing irritation.

Key benefits
- Pine leaf extract and a cluster of centella compounds calm while you cleanse
- Salicylic acid plus capryloyl salicylic acid, an LHA, keep pores looking clear
- Three hyaluronate forms keep water in the skin through the rinse
- Green tea, willow bark and bergamot leaf extracts round out the botanical base
Worth knowing
- Keep to lukewarm rather than hot water, since hot water is what leaves a cleanser feeling stripping.
- Cut back to once daily if the skin feels tight rather than clean afterward.
