How it works
Gentle Cleansing Oil 200ml is Sulwhasoo's take on the first step of a routine. On its own ingredient list, Squalane sits at position 14 of 27 on the ingredient list, a lightweight, sebum-like emollient used for a plump, non-greasy finish. Butylene Glycol sits at position 17 of 27 on the ingredient list, a solvent and humectant used to help carry the other ingredients. Sulwhasoo is a heritage Korean luxury house built around fermented Korean red ginseng and hanbang (traditional herbal) formulation, and this formula carries that character through cleanser format rather than a stripped-down version of it. It belongs to the first step of a routine, removing makeup, sunscreen and the day's buildup before the rest of a routine, and what it does for skin is best judged after it has had time to settle in, rather than by a single application. This is the Korean-market formula of gentle cleansing oil 200ml, the version sold on shelves in Korea rather than one reworked for a different market.
