The Anua 8 Hyaluronic Acid Hydrating Gentle Foaming Cleanser 150ml is a Korean face wash that solves the most common cleanser problem — skin that feels tight, dry, and stripped after washing. By combining eight different molecular-weight forms of Hyaluronic Acid with Panthenol and Zinc PCA, the formula cleanses and hydrates at the same time, so the skin feels balanced rather than parched the moment you rinse off.
The formula is free from sulfates, fragrances, silicones, and parabens, making it one of the safest daily cleansers for sensitive, dry, or acne-prone skin. It works as both a standalone cleanser and a second-step wash in a double cleansing routine, and is suitable for all skin types, including oily, combination, and reactive skin.
Key Benefits of Anua 8 Hyaluronic Acid Hydrating Gentle Foaming Cleanser
- 8 types of Hyaluronic Acid — including Hydroxypropyltrimonium Hyaluronate, Sodium Hyaluronate Crosspolymer, Sodium Acetylated Hyaluronate, and Potassium Hyaluronate — hydrate the skin at multiple depths during the cleanse so the skin barrier stays intact after rinsing
- Zinc PCA regulates sebum production and helps reduce redness and visible pore size, making this cleanser actively beneficial for oily and acne-prone skin types beyond just cleansing
- Panthenol and Betaine strengthen the moisture barrier and prevent the tight, dry feeling that most foam cleansers cause, keeping skin comfortable and balanced immediately after washing
- Sulfate-free, fragrance-free, and silicone-free formula with mild amino acid surfactants (Sodium Cocoyl Glycinate, Sodium Lauroyl Glutamate) that clean effectively without disrupting the skin's natural pH or irritating sensitive skin
Skin Types and Concerns
- Dry and dehydrated skin: 8 types of Hyaluronic Acid replenish moisture during cleansing, so the skin never experiences dryness or tightness after rinsing
- Oily and combination skin: Zinc PCA controls excess sebum production and keeps the skin balanced between washes without over-stripping or causing oil rebound
- Sensitive and reactive skin: Sulfate-free, fragrance-free formula with gentle amino acid surfactants cleanses thoroughly without triggering redness, irritation, or barrier disruption
- Acne-prone and congested skin: Non-comedogenic formula removes daily buildup, impurities, and residue from pores without leaving any occlusive residue that could contribute to breakouts
