Texture & feel
SENSORYDual Gentle Cleansing Agents
Coco-Glucoside and TEA-Cocoyl Glutamate work together to draw out impurities without sulfates or harsh surfactants, keeping the skin barrier intact.
Triple Hyaluronic Acid Complex
Three forms of hyaluronic acid (hydrolyzed, sodium hyaluronate, and sodium acetylated hyaluronate) deliver multi-layer hydration at different molecular weights.
Calming Botanical Blend
Centella asiatica (cica), chamomile, and camellia soothe irritation, reduce visible redness, and protect against environmental stressors.
Barrier-Respecting pH 5.5
Formulated at the skin's natural pH level to preserve the acid mantle and prevent post-cleanse tightness or dryness.
Safety & compatibility
SAFENo retinoids, salicylic acid, hydroquinone, or chemical sunscreens. All ingredients are considered safe for use during pregnancy and breastfeeding. Always consult your doctor for personalized advice.
Most ingredients are fungal acne safe. However, Polyglyceryl-10 Laurate (an emulsifier near the end of the list) may potentially feed malassezia yeast. Since it is a rinse-off product with minimal skin contact time, risk is low but not zero.
Oil-free, non-comedogenic formula. No known pore-clogging oils or heavy emollients. 98% of clinical study participants reported this cleanser did not cause breakouts.
Listed at the very end of the INCI list (minimal concentration). Lavender oil contains linalool and linalyl acetate which can sensitize reactive skin over time. Patch test if you have very sensitive or allergy-prone skin.
Free from sulfates, parabens, alcohol, silicones, and artificial fragrances. Formulated by Alicia Yoon, who developed the line for her own severe eczema-prone skin.
Safe to use alongside retinol, vitamin C, AHAs, and BHAs. As a rinse-off cleanser, it will not interfere with your treatment products applied afterwards.
Ingredient breakdown
INGREDIENTSCentella Asiatica (Cica) ExtractProven
A powerhouse botanical with centuries of use in traditional medicine. Rich in active compounds called centellosides (asiaticoside, madecassoside, asiatic acid, and madecassic acid) that calm inflammation, support wound healing, and strengthen the skin barrier.
- Anti-inflammatory: Centellosides inhibit pro-inflammatory cytokines, visibly reducing redness and irritation.
- Barrier repair: Stimulates glycosaminoglycan (GAG) synthesis and collagen production for stronger skin.
- Wound healing: Used clinically in dermatology for scar treatment and post-procedure recovery.
Chamomilla Recutita (Chamomile) Flower ExtractProven
A well-studied botanical rich in bisabolol and chamazulene. Provides antibacterial, anti-inflammatory, and pore-clearing benefits to help calm and decongest skin.
- Antibacterial: Helps clear congested pores and reduce acne-causing bacteria on the skin surface.
- Soothing: Bisabolol reduces irritation and is used in formulations for sensitive and reactive skin.
- Antioxidant: Protects against environmental stress and free radical damage.
Triple Hyaluronic Acid ComplexProven
Three forms of hyaluronic acid (Hydrolyzed HA, Sodium Hyaluronate, and Sodium Acetylated Hyaluronate) provide multi-depth hydration. The low molecular weight form penetrates deeper for plumping, while the acetylated form offers longer-lasting moisture retention.
- Multi-weight hydration: Different molecular sizes target different skin layers for comprehensive moisture delivery.
- Elasticity boost: Low molecular weight HA has been shown to increase skin elasticity and reduce wrinkle depth.
- Rosacea support: Studies suggest topical low molecular weight HA may benefit rosacea-affected skin.
Camellia Sinensis (Green Tea) Leaf ExtractProven
Loaded with polyphenols (especially EGCG), green tea extract is one of the most studied antioxidants in skincare. It neutralizes free radicals from UV, pollution, and stress.
- Antioxidant power: EGCG is a potent free radical scavenger that protects skin cells from oxidative damage.
- Anti-aging: Research supports its role in reducing signs of photoaging and supporting collagen synthesis.
- Acne & rosacea: Anti-inflammatory properties make it suitable for acne-prone and rosacea-affected skin.
Glycyrrhiza Glabra (Licorice) Root ExtractProven
Contains glycyrrhizin and liquiritin, which provide anti-inflammatory and skin-brightening effects. Liquiritin inhibits tyrosinase activity to help fade dark spots and even out skin tone.
- Brightening: Liquiritin blocks melanin production by inhibiting tyrosinase enzyme activity.
- Anti-inflammatory: Glycyrrhizin (also present as dipotassium glycyrrhizate in this formula) soothes irritated skin.
- Antimicrobial: Emerging research shows activity against acne-causing bacteria.
Panthenol (Pro-Vitamin B5)Proven
A humectant and skin-conditioning agent that converts to vitamin B5 in the skin. Attracts and retains moisture while supporting the skin's lipid barrier for improved resilience and softness.
- Moisturizing: Effective humectant that draws water into the skin and locks it in.
- Barrier support: Promotes lipid synthesis to strengthen and repair the skin barrier.
- Irritancy: 0 — Comedogenicity: 0 — One of the safest and most well-tolerated actives in skincare.

- Cannot remove waterproof or heavy makeup alone (needs oil cleanser first)
- Contains lavender and geranium essential oils, which some sensitive users may react to

- Not widely available in physical stores outside of Ulta in the US
Budget-friendly alternatives (dupes)
DUPES
Also a low-pH gel cleanser with tea tree and BHA for gentle cleansing. Simpler formula without the rich botanical blend but excellent value at 150ml for $12. Slightly more mattifying finish.
Shares the pH 5.5 approach and gentle cleansing philosophy with panthenol and madecassoside. Comes as a whip foam rather than gel. Fewer active botanicals but similarly non-stripping and great for sensitive skin.
Uses the same gentle coco-glucoside surfactant base. Minimalist formula without the calming botanical extracts. Larger 150ml size at a lower price, but lacks the cica and triple HA hydrating benefits.

Frequently asked questions
FAQYes. This cleanser does not contain retinoids, salicylic acid (BHA), hydroquinone, chemical sunscreens, or any other ingredients commonly flagged as unsafe during pregnancy or breastfeeding. The formula relies on gentle botanical extracts and mild surfactants. However, always consult your healthcare provider for personalized guidance.
Mostly, but with one caveat. The formula is free from ferments, fatty acids, and most common fungal acne triggers. However, it contains Polyglyceryl-10 Laurate near the end of the ingredient list, which some databases flag as a potential malassezia trigger. Since this is a rinse-off product with very short skin contact time, the risk is minimal — but those with active, severe fungal acne may want to exercise caution or consult a dermatologist.
Absolutely. As a rinse-off cleanser, this product does not leave active ingredients on the skin that could interact with your treatment serums. It actually makes an ideal companion for retinol and acid routines because its gentle, pH-balanced formula prepares the skin without over-stripping, reducing the risk of irritation from subsequent active products.
This cleanser is designed for all skin types but truly excels for sensitive, dry, combination, and reactive skin. The pH 5.5 formula with calming cica, chamomile, and triple hyaluronic acid makes it especially suited for those dealing with redness, irritation, eczema tendencies, or compromised skin barriers. Very oily skin types may prefer a slightly stronger cleanser.
You will notice immediate comfort and hydration from the first use — no post-wash tightness or dryness. Visible reduction in redness and irritation typically appears within the first week. Improved skin texture, balance, and a healthier-looking complexion develop over 2–4 weeks of consistent twice-daily use. In clinical studies, 96% of participants reported smoother, more balanced skin.
Use this as the second step in a double cleanse (after an oil-based cleanser to remove makeup and SPF) or as your standalone daily cleanser for light cleansing. Apply to damp skin, massage, and rinse. Follow with toner, serum, moisturizer, and sunscreen (AM). It is suitable for both morning and evening use.
No. This cleanser has a comedogenic rating of 1 out of 5 — it is non-comedogenic. The formula is oil-free and does not contain known pore-clogging ingredients. In the brand's clinical study, 98% of participants confirmed the cleanser did not cause breakouts. Its gentle surfactants effectively clear pore-clogging impurities without leaving residue behind.
The product has a Period After Opening (PAO) of 12 months. With twice-daily use (a dime-sized amount each time), the 100ml tube typically lasts 6–8 weeks. Store in a cool, dry place and keep the cap securely closed. There is also a mini 50ml travel size available.
Verdict: The Peach & Lily Power Calm Hydrating Gel Cleanser is one of the best gentle gel cleansers on the K-beauty market. It delivers on its promise of deep cleansing without any stripping, tightness, or irritation — a rare combination backed by clinical results. The botanical-rich formula featuring cica, chamomile, triple hyaluronic acid, and camellia provides genuine soothing and hydrating benefits that go beyond basic cleansing. It loses half a point for the premium price relative to its 100ml size and the inclusion of lavender/geranium essential oils in what is otherwise marketed as a fragrance-free, sensitive-skin product. Overall, an excellent daily cleanser for anyone prioritizing skin barrier health, gentleness, and clean beauty standards.

Understanding Silicones
If you've ever used a skincare, makeup or beauty product that's made your skin look and feel smoother tempoarily - it's likely contained Silicone. They are a popular class of ingredients found in cosmetics due to their smooth, soft, easy-to-spread and smooth properties that help creates an artificial layer/barrier on top of skin or hair (commonly found in conditioners).
For the same reasons they are popularly used, they are also commonly avoided. Anecdotally, many individuals have reported that Silicones cause/excerbate breakouts, irritation, cause a feeling of skin being unable to breathe, cause clumping of cosmetic products and find it difficult to wash off. As a result, those who find them problematic are avoiding them and increasingly, cosmetic companies are avoiding them as well.
If you have had bad experiences with Silicones in the past, or suspect they are problematic then look out for the tick on the Silicone-free label.

Understanding the Identified Contact Allergens
The EU's Scientific Committee on Consumer Safety (SCCS) has identified and established 26 cosmetic ingredients that are likely contact allergens (potential to cause skin allergies) as demonstrated in clinical or epidemiological studies. The EU's SCCS have recommend cosmetic companies to disclose them on the labels if used and in cases where the concentration exceeds 0.001% in leave-on products and 0.01% in rinse-off products, then they must be labelled.
Look out for the tick on the EU-Allergen free label to know your cosmetic is free from any of the 26 identified cosmetic ingredients.

Disclaimer
The EU Allergen Free label is for the 26 ingredients identified by the EU SCCS and products will be only flagged if a suspected ingredient is on it's ingredient list. It is possible for cosmetics to contain one of the suspect ingredients without it appearing on the ingredient list due to it not reaching the concentration threshold to disclose it and cosmetic manufacturers choice to not disclose it.
Also note, the EU Allergen Free label is not personalized for your own allergies you may have and it does not constitute as medical advice.

Fungal Acne (Molassezia) Safe
Fungal Acne (Molassezia) Safe
Understanding Fungal Acne (Pityrosporum Folliculitis/Malassezia Folliculitis)
Pityrosporum Folliculitis/Malassezia folliculitis or simply known as Fungal Acne is a persistent acne-like condition that commonly responds poorly to traditional acne-treating methods. Unlike most cases of Acne where bacteria is the culprit, Fungi is the culprit of Fungal Acne (Hence the name!). There are certain classes & groups of ingredients that have been shown to promote and feed the growth of the Fungal Acne, Fungi such as fatty acids, oils, esters, polysorbates and fermented ingredients.
For more information regarding Fungal Acne, please visit Simple Skincare Science (f.c) - #3 of our Recommend Skincare Resources for an amazing comprehensive guide!
Please Read: How to use the Fungal Acne (Malassezia) Label
At SkinCarisma, we've done our best to identify as many ingredients as possible but note the fungal-free label may not be 100% accurate due to the complexconditions and combination of ingredients that malezzeria can thrive on.
Additionally, products that may contain ingredients that have shown to feed Malassezia may not neccessarily exacerbate the condition due to concentration of ingredient used in the product, this information is simply not available on the products.
As a result, please note this is only an experimental label that can be best used to possible identify problematic products you have used in the past. It is in no way a perfect identifier nor a predictor in whether or not it will exacerbate or cause fungal acne. It will continue to be worked on as more information and research comes to light.
If you find any ingredients you believe should be included, please email us at snails@skincarisma.com.
Disclaimer
Due to the lack of substantial research into this area it is very likely there are other ingredients and class/groups of ingredients that could feed Fungal Acne which have not been indentified.
The Fungal-Safe label does not constitute as medical advice. For your specific case, always consult your medical professiona such as dermatologist, physician, pharmacist, or health care provider - please read our medical disclaimer for more information.
What are Notable Effects & Ingredients?
Ever used a product that promised a certain effect but provided no results? It might not have contained any notable ingredients that could have been responsible for that promised effect. It doesn't matter what the marketing or packaging «promises» it can do, if it doesn't contain anything that can help - then the likelihood of it helping is low.
We help you identify key notable ingredients that have been shown to help with effects such as acne-fighting, brightening, UV-protection, wound healing & anti-aging to help you achieve your skincare goals smarter. Please note that different notable ingredients have varying levels of research behind them, some are extremely well proven yet some have mixed research in their efficacy.
Pro Tip Alert!
Just because a product doesn't contain any notable ingredients doesn't mean it's bad. And a product with notable ingredients (or even many) doesn't necessarily guarantee the efficacy of the product performing these effects either. There are other factors such as ingredient quality, concentration and formulation that will ultimately determine this.
Be smart and use this as just a starting point for you to make more informed and smarter choices and compare it with reviews to see if the product is right for you

What is the Ingredient Safety Breakdown?
Ingredient Safety Breakdown refers to the percentage % of ingredients in different risk categories as classified by EWG (Environment Working Group) if they are available. There are almost endless cosmetic ingredients and they are one of the few organisations globally that have assigned ratings to a lot of the more commonly used ingredients which is why we reference them.
Pro Tip Alert!
EWG is seen by many to be more on the alarmist side in their assignment of health ratings resulting in rating ingredients as riskier than they actually are. We recommend using this a reference point rather than a strict guide of ingredient safety and to always do further research if into ingredients that you may find suspect.
