You should really try Paulas choice, even if you are into k-beauty! They have amazing cleaners and toners! Plus I would really love a review, you are so knowledgeable about skincare x

[@dcdawn]

@@awetewtewtewawetwetw500 Sadly PC seems to always cause my face to feel burning...

[@reneevdschaft]

That Heimish cleanser sounds so good! I'd love to see more of the 'product category highlight' videos!

[@aprilb1233]

I love when I watch one of your old videos and see that you highly recommend a product I just bought! Decided to try the Heimish cleanser and finding it for $7.49 on Stylevana is an added bonus. ❤

[@karataylor3434]

Thanks always looking for cleansers! I just got the hado labo oil cleanser and I have krave cleanser! Love it

[@e.a.4926]

My favorite cleanser right now (and possibly of all time) is the Make Prem Safe Me Relief Moisture Cleansing Foam. Absolutely obsessed 🧡💜💚

[@ceciliagovea]

Hey Kelly, first off, love how informative your reviews are, they helped me understand my skin so much! I wanted to ask you, is there any "dupe" you might think of for the Krave Beauty Matcha Hydrating Cleanser? There's been a lot of trouble in regards to shipping in my country but I really want to try something similar to it! TIA

[@simplycatx]

Krave MHHC is my HG! But the Heimish one looks good~ Thanks for the recommendation 💕

[@nataliagomez5756]

I love the Krave cleanser!! I’m always using that one or the First Aid Beauty cleanser. I would love to try the Peach and Lily cleanser, I saw how it calmed down irritation on Gothamista’s skin on instagram on her Morocco facial with Alicia Yoon.

[@nyaf-db7tg]

The hemish is already on my wishlist for next yesstyle haul. Please make a video about fragrance free moisturizers that can be used in summer. I have oily combo skin and i'm currently using cerave but I think it'd be heavy in spring/summer. Thank you love your videos~

[@haydenelder3787]

idk if you already planned on doing it or not, but it would be really cool if you did this style video for all of the other skincare steps to! :)

[@erica4552]

The Heimish cleanser was too drying even for my oily skin! I only used it three times because I get that squeaky clean feeling everytime I use it. I switched to Krave now and my skin loves it.

[@miss_venus]

Heimish All Clean balm sounds pretty tempting, but it does contain witch hazel which can be sensitizing. The Matcha Hemp Hydrating cleanser is fantastic, though. 💚

[@tabacarudelia8502]

I just ordered today the Krave Beauty Matcha cleanser from Beauty Box Korea ( payed an arm and a leg the shipping to Italy :) ) and I really have great expectations from it. In the past, I've used the Cosrx Low ph morning cleanser and the Klavuu Pure pearlsation cleansing foam, but I didn't have a good experience. Both of them dried my skin and burnt my eyes. I prefer western products, but I thought to give one last chance to korean cleansers, so fingers crossed. Thank you for your videos and recommendations!

[@thehonestbeautyreview]

I loooove the Heimish All Clean balm, but it does have essential oils. I’m dying to try the foam now. Thanks for the rec’s :)

[@KellyDriscoll]

You're so welcome, I was happy to find this heimish cleanser was so gentle!

[@rhondajansenvanvuuren392]

Have you reviewed The Sana Soy light Cleanser yet? Japanese.

[@annanicole7791]

I really love the cosrx but switched to the purito now that I'm starting tretinoin. I might have to try one of these ones though. Colorado winters can be dry and I do need a more gentle one.

[@n3r0n3]

Thanks! the right cleanser is the trickiest thing to find in my opinion. I had ordered Heimish and the real barrier cleansers 2 weeks ago I am waiting for the package to get to me actually ;) (I was thinking 6.5 is technically acidic so wishtrend may market it as low ph I suppose - I confess I always personally doubt brands that are offsprings of online shops, it is probably just me being cynical...)

[@SaraHungary]

The reason of the packaging of the By Wishtrend cleanser, that fine powders love to fly and in a small bottle they create pressure and the bottle could explode. An there is sodium bicarbonate in there which is alkaline. :)

[@1015SaturdayNight]

I searched and searched and finally settled on the Hada Labo Gokujyun HA cleanser, it's lovely but I wonder if a jelly cleanser might be better in the winter. It seems they all have fragrance!

[@socheatchea8253]

Interested in hemish, but I still have 2 tubes of cleanser to finish =“D

[@mj2034]

I'm definitely going to try the Heimish cleanser as soon as my current cleanser finishes. It's a bit pricey $34 for about 4 oz. I'm curious about the pyunkang cleanser. Any interest in reviewing it Kelly?

[@farinajaved7321]

Thank you!! 🙏🏻 Cleansers is the most difficult!

[@KellyDriscoll]

You're so welcome, happy to help!

[@laurasantangelo-mclarnon1822]

I don’t want to feel dried out after cleansing and want to try the Heimish and Krave cleansers. Hey, what are your thoughts on the Pyunkang Yul foaming cleanser given the higher ph of the product and fragrance? Thanks for the awesome videos!

[@stellarose7886]

Very informative video! Can you do a video regarding balms? Thanks!!!

[@ChantuayLorraine]

Hi love your channel! 😊 Can you make a video of your favorite non-fragrant and alcohol free exfoliators? Thank you! 💕

[@thesistersjournal6562]

Hi Kelly, your big fan here. Just want to point out some things here for you to consider, in a lab setting, we usually do the ph test in a clean glass jar using a distilled or purified water as what you use may affect the ph level in the end including your hand and your water :)

[@angelinalovesbeauty]

I know you don't like essential oils (me neither), however I recently discovered the Ren ClearCalm Clay Cleanser, and omg it's incredible. My skin is so, so dry and sensitive but this cleanser deeply cleanses without feeling stripping. That product along with the Ren Bio Retinoid Cream (which is amazing for skin texture and breakouts- the only thing that has ever worked for me in years) has completely changed my skin. Ren does seem to love essential oils and I wish they would take them out, though to be fair these two products in particular must have them in super low concentration because the scent is very subtle:) Also loved this video! I'm intrigued by the Heimish Cleanser:)

[@samkim9786]

hi kelly! my skin has been very dehydrated so i wanted to repair my barrier with hydration. i bought the hada labo premium lotion and a cream containing ceramides, natural skin lipids etc. so far my texture has improved and skin is really way more hydrated. unfortunately my redness is still there, there are these red spots too like marks and idk if they are PIE scars from past acne but well ive heard low molecular weights of HA can contribute to skin inflammation , im sure the product is hydrating but what do you think of it? skin is super sensitive and stays red and idk what to do.

[@ryzraven]

Krave Matcha Cleanser totally my holy grail... the best cleanser ever but like you said if you live outside US or Korea, the cleanser is very hard to get... and my country have a strict rule about hemp seeds oil, it even harder to get it now... thanks for gave me an info about Heimish... I’ll definitely try that!!!

[@KellyDriscoll]

Oh no that restriction makes sense but also it's a cleanser.... it really is a tricky brand for some. I'm hoping they will become more widely available in the future, I have no doubt they're working towards it.

[@sandrafranco43]

Nice !Please review Simple brand, I use the cleanser and wipes always looking for fragance free and no alcohol products. Thank you love your videos 😘

[@vpr8518]

Kelly I reallyyyyyy wanted to know your opinion on the Clinique mineral sunscreen for the body (I use it for the face and it feels amazing!). It is fragrance free and I love it but it needs your approval 🤭😅💘

[@dominiquesiwulich4746]

Your glow is amazing

[@Progress_Not_Perfection]

Happy 2020 Kelly! 😊 Would you please consider having a look at the ingredients list of the 2sol (Korean brand) cica youth toner and share your thoughts (or review) with us ... Its got 10% panthenol, numerous amino acids, 4 peptides + HA ... fragrance and essential oils free ... 300ml for about $22 (ebay) ...

[@maria766]

Good afternoon, Kelly! Do you still recommend the Tosowoong Enzyme Powder Wash? I have ordered it a few weeks ago, but it takes an eternity to arrive in my country... 😕

[@lindymaylim]

I hope you can educate us on Bad ingredients like PEG, FRANGRANCE..n many more..even for High end brands

[@CinnamonTroll8U]

Omg I tried the Krave Beauty Matcha Hemp Hydrating cleanser for about a week, and it made my skin feel soooo tight and dry afterwards every single time! :( I was so sad. (I have normal to dry skin, no oily zones.) Luckily it works wonders for my husband (even made the blackheads/sebaceous filaments on his nose a lot less visible!) so it wasn't a waste of money. I switched to the Hada Labo Gokujyun Hyaluronic Acid Bubble Foaming cleanser and it feels AMAZING. I love it soooo much! 😍 I'm surprised though because I always thought foaming cleansers were more drying??

[@KellyDriscoll]

So weird! But the only consistent thing you can count on in skincare is that your mileage may vary! Glad you found one that works! The hada labo is supposed to be a ph 5.5. so it shouldn't strip like a traditional foaming cleanser with a a high ph.

[@Jezebel066]

Weird how everyone’s skin is dif huh? I use vanicream bar & have heard ppl say it’s very drying. But I can’t use liquid foaming cleaners bc they dry me out soooo bad! I LOVE hada labo cleansing oil. I should try the cleanser sometime. I wanted to try the matcha one first

[@catladylion5186]

I have dry sensitive skin and my fav second step cleanser are purito ph barrier gel cleanser and la roche posay tolerane ph5.5 gel cleanser . Both cleansers don’t have drying alcohol or fragrance in them. Short ingredient lists and very gentle.

[@KellyDriscoll]

I really need to try the LRP cleanser, sounds so good!

[@idir7981]

I agree with you on the heimish cleanser. I have oily skin and no issue using it. I prefer the heimish compared to the cosrx good morning cleanser

[@user-dp8vt9gt1b]

Does it cleanse your face well like remove sunscreen etc.. ?

[@monica2757]

thanks for the vid! :) I have dry skin and use the Hada Labo Hyaluronic Acid Face Foam and find it really hydrating. Even more hydrating than the Cerave Hydrating cleanser, personally.

[@Jezebel066]

Does it leave the film Cerave leaves?

[@eriyeomans9574]

I love my Heimish cleanser. I’m on my second bottle.

[@kaystary]

Have a good night time cleanser, paula's choice hydrating cleanser. Still looking for the right morning cleanser so will look into heimish. Great video!

[@Jezebel066]

Does this leave a film like Cerave does?

[@kaystary]

@@Jezebel066 No it rinses clean for me. The cerave one has no surfactants so it leaves a film.

[@crazyvid123]

Is etude house soon jung whip cleanser is good? Or neogen foam blueberry cleanser?

[@honeymilk06]

Hi Kelly! Does HEIMISH all green foam clean pores?

[@sandrahodge-neill7168]

Do you double cleanse? I use heimish all clean balm and Heimish all clean freen foam.

[@crazyvid123]

Have you tried etudr housr whip cleanser or acwell micro cleanser/ acwell bubblr free cleanser??? Want to know your thoughts with this products

[@claudinejuliennevidanes1874]

Can you please try the Pyunkang Yul cleansers? 🤔

[@Lives.2.Ride.]

There's sweet almond oil in the krave matcha hemp cleanser, which kind of a fragrance !!

[@lavayuki]

I've used so many cleansers but find it harder to find good K-Beauty ones compared to J-Beauty ones. My favourites have been Shiseido Senka Collagen foam cleanser, Etude house collagen cleanser, Sana Nameraka and Hada Labo cleansers. I bought the Neogen cleanser which I have yet to try. I really like the sound of that matcha Wish Trend one but I have super dry skin so it may not suit me if it's for oily skin

[@wonniek.3536]

My skin is exceptionally dry so I can't use that everyday, but oh my goooooooood SHISEIDO SENKA COLLAGEN FOAMMMM omg I didn't expect it to feel soooo luxuuuuuuuurious!! I need the SMALLEST amount to wash my face. It's SO cushy and thick and foamy!! Feels AMAZING. My mom is totally sold too. I did test the pH at home and it was like 9. :( I personally think it's totally fine to use cleansers with pH 4.5-7 or whatever though.

[@sonaku1]

You really should try Dr sam bunting products,her cleanser is the best in my opinion. Doesn't foam at all , gentle yet effective. It did sting a bit in my eyes but i do have super sensitive eyes

[@SuperEwyatt]

Are you doing the double Korean cleanse first .. oil cleanser first then the foaming ect

[@mayramendoza7197]

I use the Hada Labo gokujuyn hyaluronic acid face wash in the big tube. But now that you mention it, I love how well it cleans but maybe my face feels a little tight after. 🤔. I’m a super oily skin type. I need to check the PH level on that.

[@KellyDriscoll]

I think it's supposed to be a 5.5 cleanser, I haven't tried it yet, still sitting in my wishlisht! 😄

[@mayramendoza7197]

Kelly Driscoll you only need the tiniest amount to create a lather so it lasts a long time for only $8! In combination with the Hada Labo cleansing oil it removes makeup like a dream. I may try the Heimish when I run out. Thanks for the tip on the cleansing oil!

[@danielbarranco4653]

Omg i recommend Round Lab’s dokdo cleanser! It claims to be ph 5.5 and uses amino acid cleansing agents. Also fragrance free and essential oil free.

[@danielbarranco4653]

Also the wishtrend has that ph because the main ingredient is sodium bicarbonate, which is highly alcaline, I think it is misleading from them to claim it’s your water quality that’s making it alcaline.

[@am92795]

Hi could you please review some of the elta md cleansers? I know they’re not Korean , but I’ve heard they’re pretty gentle and dermatologists recommend them too

[@melibarajas5800]

I would like to see a review on this brand too.

[@94solveig]

Wish you would have taken the pH of the water and shown us, as well as mixed all the other cleansers with water and checked the pH. You are gonna mix the cleanser with water on the skin anyways. Love the video though, need a new cleanser soon, and probably gonna try the Heimish one, based on your recommendation 😁

[@greggillum2590]

Great comparison video - thanks! Suggestion: perhaps check the pH of your water source by itself. What does it rate on its own and does that match up with how the powder cleansers each tested with that water. Kudos and see you soon!

[@KellyDriscoll]

My water tests at 7!

[@n3r0n3]

ps. I hate the squeaky clean feeling too but there are situations when stripping your skin of its sebum layer would theoretically make sense (assuming you replenish it quickly): removing the external sebum layer may in fact facilitate the penetration of hydrophilic substances that would have a hard time crossing it. Then the way across our epidermis is still extremely complicated but at least once sebum is out of the way they have one less bridge to cross. The point with these strategies is as usual: "is it worth it?"

[@KellyDriscoll]

I guess the ultimate goal is to remove the excess without taking the essential!

[@user-dp8vt9gt1b]

Can the heimish cleanser remove sunscreen ?

[@nurunnahar7171]

Hello Which one is good for upcoming winter season? Hemish one or rovectin.?? As i have clogged pores problem and also using tretinoin

[@KellyDriscoll]

Either one would be fine as they are similar gel textures!

[@gingerbadjie9670]

I’m using Illiyoon cleanser atm and am trying the Rovectin one next, not sure of their pH but my skin hates high pH , odd about the two powders with the same water having two different readings ………

[@greysonbishop8685]

Have u tried the rovectin one? I think im gonna buy it

[@moonchild8422]

Are there any cleansing balms that you can recommend that are Fragrance free? I'm having a really hard time finding one.

[@Jezebel066]

Hadalabo cleansing oil is my fave. I get mine off eBay

[@plunkybug]

Kelly, I’ve been testing the Heimish cleanser with a mini size, and considering trying another mini before buying a full size. I recently found a seller here in Canada that has the Krave Beauty Matcha cleanser...but at $40 (and $16 to ship). It’s considerably more expensive than the Heimish. Do I remember correctly that somewhere you said that the Heimish was comparable with the Krave Beauty? Is it worth it to still try to get the Krave? Thanks! Keep up the great content!

[@elaina2156]

are you able to order it on the krave beauty site bc it’s 16 dollars on the website however it’s more on amazon and ebay

[@plunkybug]

Elaina Emanivong no. That’s only if you’re in the states. I’m in Canada and they don’t ship here. Not to mention that it’s $16 usd, not cad. So yeah, it’s really expensive unless you’re in Korea or the states.

[@samikshya3330]

Everytime I use krave hydrating cleanser I get breakouts I don’t know why I have normal to dry skin . Tying to find a good cleanser 😅

[@jessyca9833]

!!! THANK YOU!

[@jenlauren143]

I agree with you 100% Kelly. I find that there are not many cleansers out there that meet all the marks we want for our cleansers and I’ve been wanting a video on cleansers because I’ve been wanting to find different options and there aren’t many. Glad to know there are other great options out there and I was afraid to try the coconut one because I could’ve sworn it had coco oil in it and it scares me , but maybe I will try it out 😳😘❤️

[@KellyDriscoll]

It's such a process to find some that could potentially work! The search always continues but happy to provide some options here!

[@peterkloostermann]

Unfortunately many companies market a product as "slight acidic pH" or "low pH cleanser", while the pH is 6.5. Preferably skincare products have a pH as close as possible to your skin pH, so about 4.8-5. Although pH is not everything, the amount and type of surfactant used of course are the main determining factors in how stripping a cleanser is. It's also a bit annoying so many companies start listing the EWG score, how green their products are. Please stop that, EWG is unreliable, and the "clean" ingredient movement is nonsense. Some other fragrance free cleansers I like: DM Balea Med Ultra Sensitive Waschgel (pH5.5) - this is my all time favorite cleanser, and it's only €2.95. Dr Sam Flawless Cleanser (pH5) Avene Antirougeurs Clean Lait Nettoyant HighDroxy Calm Cleanser (pH6.5) - the pH is a bit too high, but it's a very mild non foaming gel.

[@wonniek.3536]

That heimish one sounds like an HG. I'm a total hoe for thick, luxurious feeling cleansers. I've been testing some cleansers lately: The super popular Round Lab Dokdo cleansing foam - reviewed so well by Koreans and it looked so gentle and mild - thought I would love the shit out of it, but,,, i don't like it??? It has low foam and is unscented, but doesn't clean well and is a tad bit drying? Idk,,, I regret getting it. Shiseido senka collagen whip foam (pink tube) - feels SO THICK, and BUBBLY and absolutely LUXURIOUS. It has the BEST texture I have EVER tried in my entire life. But alas, my skin is too dry for it and I tested the pH with my water and it came out 9. >.> It feels absolutely amazing and I would GLADLY use it for the rest of my life if it didn't strip my skin too much if used too many times in a row. You need the TINIEST amount too! Garnier Skin Active sulfate-free gentle skin cleanser - surprisingly is really good. Very gentle and never strips my dry face. Low foam. Takes everything off really quickly. Actually really love it. Just wish the packaging was prettier lol, and it didn't smell a little,, strong? It's fragrance free tho.

[@ADseasons]

The Krave Matcha Hemp Hydrating Cleanser stings my face. Anyone else have this experience? I'm trying to lock down the ingredient that is causing the irritation. Perhaps the Citric Acid.

[@Smataba]

krave it dries my face out sooo bad, the wishtrend powder is my favourite, it never dried me out

[@carlottalena7334]

Are they cruelty free?

[@aertskato]

The oil cleanser I'm using at the moment is iUNIK Calendula Complete Cleansing Oil 🌻 The cleansing foams that I'm rotating are the Heimish All Clean Green Foam and the iUNIK Centella Bubble Cleansing Foam (when I don't want to bother making foam with my hands 😉)

What’s the best cleanser for removing makeup?

[@ririzizy886]

If you cleansing makeup, it’s best to use a cleansing balm. I highly recommend Farmacy Green Clean Cleansing Balm, it works best in removing your heavy makeup. You can bought it at Sephora.

[@elizabethlong163]

The bottle was probably full when they filled it and then it settled. Like chips do.

[@rode.kurniawan]

Cosrx low ph good morning cleanser, Purito Defence barrier low ph cleaser, or Heimish all clean green foam cleanser is better?????

[@everydayjackji651]

I have combo dehydrated skin, from those three that you mentioned I like the Cosrx one the best, the Purito is okay during colder weather since it's not drying. I just tried heimish last night, it's so drying and made my skin feels wrinkly, I was so surprised. I recommend try the sample version so you won't regret buying.

[@ririzizy886]

The cosrx is best used in the morning because of its low in pH level. The Heimish is an amazing cleanser to use for your nighttime skincare routine bcs it cleanses your skin after the whole day.

To the extent that everything will cause sensitivity on my skin even some products which previously worked. Currently I am trying to find products which will help to repair my moisture barrier based on Kelly's recommendation.
