Anua Heartleaf Succinic Moisture Cleansing Foam 25ml

Anua Heartleaf Succinic Moisture Cleansing Foam is an ultra-balancing, acne-clearing daily cleanser from Korea, specially engineered for oily, combination and blemish-prone complexions. It pairs mild chemical exfoliation with intense plant-derived calming agents, lifting away trapped grime and environmental residue without drying out your skin. The tube is printed with Succinic Acid 0.5% + Houttuynia Cordata Extract 10,000ppm.

Key Features:

• Succinic Acid pore-clarifying network: a next-generation, ultra-gentle acid that loosens dead skin cells and dissolves sticky lipid buildup deep inside the pores.
• High concentration of Heartleaf Extract (Houttuynia Cordata), a legendary botanical that reduces the look of surface irritation and takes away skin tension.
• Balanced low-pH performance, crafted to mimic your skin's natural, healthy acidity, preventing mechanical irritation and barrier depletion.
• Smooth, moisture-rich gel-cream base that transforms with water into a dense, cushiony, luxurious purifying micro-foam.
• Weightless humectants that cushion the outer lipid barrier for an exceptionally soft, plump and deeply conditioned finish.

Benefits:

• Actively manages excess sebum production and targets T-zone shine.
• Refines uneven texturing and helps prevent future surface irregularities from clouding skin clarity.
• Reduces the look of surface irritation and skin tension, instead of leaving the face tight, raw or dry like traditional harsh acne washes.
• Reveals an incredibly clean, smooth and refreshed skin appearance.
• Creates an ultra-pure foundation that optimizes your daily skincare results.

Why Choose This:

• Gentle chemical exfoliation plus calming care, not a harsh acne wash that strips the skin.
• Suitable for daily use in both morning (AM) and evening (PM) cleansing routines.
• Made for oily, combination, sensitive and acne-prone skin looking for a non-stripping deep cleanse.

Use Cases:

• As your primary water-based cleanser step, morning and evening.
• For evening routines, use immediately after a cleansing oil to complete a thorough double-cleanse.
• Follow up with your favorite hydrating toner, soothing serum and a lightweight moisturizer.
• Always apply a broad-spectrum sunscreen during the day to safeguard your refined skin texture.

Cautions:

• For external cosmetic use on the face only.
• Avoid direct contact with the interior of the eyes; if contact occurs, flush immediately and thoroughly with clean, cool water for several minutes.
• Discontinue use if severe redness, continuous burning, localized scaling or an allergic skin rash develops.
• Avoid aggressively massaging the foam over fresh scratches, open wounds or deeply broken skin until the surface tissue has completely recovered and closed.
• Keep entirely out of reach of children. Store safely at room temperature away from direct sunlight.
